How to Install LMS via Terminal on Mac OS X

[Man in a van]

Well I have concluded that running everything on the one Joggler is a trifle fraught with anxiety.

It does all work, but is slow in operation and rquires a large size (at least 32gb) usb stick.

There is still the limitation with the Joggler that some usb sticks work better...

My one is a tad more prosaic

Kev, I use PiShrink to reduce file size

https://github.com/Drewsif/PiShrink

I use a raspberry pi Desktop with a created bin folder at /home/pi

I dd the file image into this folder and then use PiShrink with -z to reduce the file size...

Yep, that's the conclusion I have also drawn

Just a follow up; I built the binaries, and voila!




No sign of v 8.2.1

I think that sc1pzb is best to take up Kev's KeBul kind offer

I just popped a Bullseye 64 Bit Lite RPI OS on rpi4b and used the link provide by Jim d6jg to inslall LMS v8.2.0

I does not start, viz

Just quickly: whilst here, pull the usb cable out from the Dac, wait 30 secs or so, then plugg it back in.

Wait again for 30 secs or so the type lsmod again

Does the output change ?

Is it a usb 2 certified cable.

I know that sometimes drivers are dropped...

I don't know, I suggested it earlier, just to check squeezelite. I would think Max2play or RPIOS Buster. PIOS Bullseye should work, they ar all based on the same base, but mayuse different kernels (or not).

I think it best for you to follow the advice given by paul-.

He is,...

It might help others to help you, if you provid some more detail about the stops.

For example; does the music recommence where it stopped, or not ?

Any messages in the server log?

Which rpi and which OS ?

That sort of thing

[Man in a van]

OK

with only the usb dac connected to the rpi, on a usb 2 socket, reboot the pi.

When it come back up open a terminal and SSH into the pi, user is tc and passwd is piCore

at the prompt type lsmod and press enter on the keyboard;

this is my output,...

I'm just setting up a rpi with pCP

I'll look through the dmesg in a tick

Meanwhile power of the rpi using the Shutdown box frm the Main Page menu

PUll the power, wait for 30 secs or so and then disconnect the usb cable from the rpi, reconnect it to a usb2 input...

It would seem that the dac is not recognised

Can you post the "Boot" log please or the output of "dmesg"

You can access these via Main Page > Diagnostics

All the time you are wasting on this...

I always used to use

or Diskpart, for fat 32 formatting

[Man in a van]

No Idea about tags, the suggestion was to check squeezelite, which is your problem

You caould always make a new install of pCP, download a fresh image, check the hash, and burn a new image onto a clean formatted card

Why not try it with either Moode or Volumio, it works with either OS, then both offer Squeezelite as an output (note any successful output settings).

Or run a base RPI OS and install Squeezelite

Or; try this last first, update Squeezelite from the...

Thanks for the "extra mile" Michael

Still not working for me though

I had already updated yesterday when I saw your reply, so I download a fresh package and put it in the updates folder (this might give it a different ownership, I don't know). I also...

[Man in a van]

Ah well..sigh

Thanks anyway.

I'll pass on the AI thng, and as for man pages, I struggle with them; they presume a level of competence in the subject that I simply don't have

I'll keep looking, maybe someone else will drop by

Keep...

Thanks for your reply Michael

I'm actually trying this in reverse as I have an LMS installed with an update available. Following your reply, if I can install the update, then bingo!

I checked for the new package and also where the current LMS is installed

I know that High Sierra is out of date and that one should really use a more up to date OS, but, please be kind

I have a Late 2012 Mac-mini running High Sierra headless.

I have a Windows 10 Pro Desktop running PuTTY for SSH into the Mac-mini

Which commands are...
