Music Logitech Media Server - how to install?
Hello! Smile

I own one old Raspberry Pi Model B 512MB RAM with 8 GB class 10 SD card with latest Xbian (+ 500 GB usb hdd) so I thought maybe it is possibility to install LMS to the same RPi as I have two Squeezeboxes: Classic and Radio I need for them Logitech Media Server (LMS, formerly SlimServer, SqueezeCenter and Squeezebox Server) Smile I try to check this. Big Grin My Linux knowledge is really poor so I needed help of those sites:

http://allthingspi.webspace.virginmedia.com/lms.php
http://raspberry-at-home.com/logitech-media-server/
http://www.gerrelt.nl/RaspberryPi/wordpress/tutorial-stand-alone-squeezebox-server-and-player-for-bbq/
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?100485-Raspberry-Pi-LMS-December-2013-Best-Approach&p=764247&viewfull=1#post764247

Here is Logitech MediaServer nightly: http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=7.9
and here is LMS latest stable: http://downloads.slimdevices.com/LogitechMediaServer_v7.7.5/

Dunno how, but hey - finally I did it. It worked! Smile (BTW I choose latest stable 7.7.5 version; nightly could be better I guess.)
Well - there was problems with samba and write permissions (couldn't upload to hdd from Win) + problems with wrong time (I installed ntpdate package to manually Wink update time). But those are small glitches - hope easy to fix later... Smile

I dunno about all those dependencies, pythons versions, tmp files, updates, nightlies etc etc so IMHO it was made really dirt and for sure not how it should be made in perfect linux world. Smile So... Could you please write small tutorial how to do this proper and clean way?
BTW: maybe LMS could some day be additional package to install, within Xbian menu?
Please help - I want to install latest XBIAN + my hdd + latest LMS from scratch. Smile

Thanks you very much for best, fast and simply wonderful Xbian, your support and your time!
Regards!
