As this has nothing to do with Spotty I'd recommend you post to a new or
pCP/LMS installation related thread. And you include the error message.

Hi, So i got my Raspberry Pi4B and burned the piCoreplayer on the SD card and got it running on the rPi4B.
However the LMS never loaded on the rPi4B, I followed several threads on how to install LMS, including creating a new larger partition on the SD card, etc., but never got it to install the LMS, I always ended with an error message.
Maybe the server was down oe something. I'll try again in a day or two

I know you're starting a new topic for this, but in the meantime, make sure you are following the exact instructions at this site. You mentioned instructions on threads. You shouldn't need forum post instructions, just follow these to the letter and installing LMS should be very simple:

The only variation is the RAM size, isn't it? 2GB are good enough to run
LMS. More wouldn't hurt - except the budget.
