Install Raspyfi on a Xbian img SD - Nikox9 - 22nd Feb, 2014 01:11 PM
Hello,
excuse my question if that might sound stupid. But I have installed Xbian on my SD and would like to install Raspyfi on the same SD.
Is that possible ? All the tutorial seems to copy the Raspyfi image onto the SD, but that will overwrite my Xbian, right ?
How to do ?
Thank you

You gave people here less than two days to react on a very specific use case....

Ok, I'll wait, didn't want to be pushy... (it's almost 2 days :rolleyes
But at the same time, I thought that was pretty straight forward to answer (for people who are not new users...like me )

Thank you.
If I understood it correctly, I will have to boot the machine on a different OS if I want to put Raspyfi or Volumio on my SD.
I would like to have Volumio ran onto Xbian, so that I can have XBMC and Volumio being able to run in parallel and not turn off one to turn on the other (on another distro).

The way I see it, Raspyfi is another distribution for the RPi. So it would be like asking if Windows can be installed with Ubuntu.
I guess it is possible if you have the source code, the time, the skill and the inclination, but alas it is outside the bounds of this forum.
Raspyfi or Xbian - your choice.

I see. Thank you.
I saw that Raspyfi evolved in Volumio.
To me, Volumio is nothing else than a MPD with some WebUI possible and an easy way to install and mount your drives.
It is directly installed with a distribution, but I would guess that it is possible to install it also on another distribution, no ?

The way I read it Raspyfi and Volumio are similar but two different distros.
To install onto Xbian, you're forgetting two things - dependencies and rpi-update.
If you can find a debian package for raspyfi or volumio, then try and install it.
Your best bet would be to install Raspyfi, upgrade, then follow the instructions here http://forum.xbian.org/thread-1850.html
It might work, but I doubt it......
Also,
I think you should ask this question on the Raspyfi forum as they will know much more.

I see, then I'll maybe have to install Volumio (or Raspyfi) and then install XBMC on its distribution...
My goal was to have XBMC and Volumio (or a stable MPD) on the same SD without having to reboot.
And I read that Xbian was the best for XBMC....therefore, I tried to see a way to install Volumio on Xbian...

Do you have an idea about how to change the uid and gid in Xbian ?
The command "/etc/passwrd t" is not permitted.
I have a problem to properly mount my NAS music folder on my Rpi... I can read the files but only in sudo, and otherwise it casy that the permission is denied.
Basically:
xbian@xbian ~ $ ls /media/music/"Black Sabbath"
ls: cannot access /media/music/Black Sabbath/Greatest Hits: Permission denied
Greatest Hits
xbian@xbian ~ $ sudo ls /media/music/"Black Sabbath"
Greatest Hits
xbian@xbian ~ $ sudo ls /media/music/"Black Sabbath"/"Greatest Hits"
01 Paranoid.mp3 10 Sweet Leaf.mp3
02 Iron Man.mp3 11 Evil Woman, Don't Play Your Games With Me.mp3

this needs to be configured on NAS side.
if the remote files are owned by root (id = 0) then into exports definition add:
all_squash,anonuid=0,anongid=0
this will transform all accesses id from * to 0 (emulating root access)
