The wizards don't support the boot drive and music drive on the same piece of hardware/partition - if you're comfortable editing the mpd & client configuration file yourself you could make this work though. It might also be doable with the wizards if you partition the drive on Windows with a small boot partition separate from a data partition - not sure if this will work as I haven't explored that as an option too much.PET-240 wrote:re the hdd, can one use a larger CF Card and keep music files on that?
Is there any advantage to doing it this way? Only ask as the Alix has an IDE header onboard and I could run a ssd through a Sata to IDE adaptor. Not being able to update over the network is a pain, though I understand where you are coming from! But I dont want to use USB for anything but the dac. A 32gig cf isn't that expensive anymore.
Any suggestions appreciated!
I fully understand where you're coming from though - agree that sharing a DAC and a USB hard disk on the same bus is not ideal. My answer to that at the moment is to use a separate file server/NAS, but better support for your scenario is something I'll need to put some though into.
