    SSD BOOT
    Is this video any use to you? It helped me get my PI to boot from ssd.

    pi@max2play:~ $ lsblk
    NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
    sda 8:0 0 223.6G 0 disk
    ├─sda1 8:1 0 41.8M 0 part /media/usb0
    └─sda2 8:2 0 223.5G 0 part /media/usb1

    Or maybe you are trying to increase the size of the sda1 area? Cheers

    Hi , as Heiner said. Connect a tv to the hdmi port then remove the power lead and replug and see what happens on the tv. Cheers

    Ok no worries. I paid my money for the year so was determined to make it work. All the best.

    Its not easy. But once you get it going it works great. Hang in there. I have a Hifiberry Amp2 card. I would be happy to help you on Skype if you like. I spent many days trying to get a sound out of it.

    Hi, I have a similar setup with the AMP2. I would bet that the Apache2 service has stopped running, in linux. This is a linux webserver. Which allows your page to „appear“. To see what is going on it is very handy to log into the pi with SSH from another machine. Then you can run some commands to see what services are running. Or simply start Apache2 with this command
    sudo service apache2 start

    My problems with Apache2 stopping, were from my memory card being too slow (you can test them with Linux commands). I recently got a Samsung EVO Plus 32GB which has made the whole pi work much better. Apache2 starts every time.

    Thanks for that. I was always using the drop down box instead of editing the command line. My new samsung evo card has made a very big difference. The whole unit is running much better and the Apache2 non starting problem has been fixed 100 percent. Amazing. Cant wait to try running Kodi again to see if its much faster.

    Soundcard Select Audio Output Drop down box?

    Is it possible to post a picture? How do you do it. I am trying from Flickr with the image buttons. But can’t get it to work. Thanks

    Someone suggested that the memory card that I was using was too slow. I found another that is working quicker. After a few tests it
    is definitely much better. Apache2 is restarting almost every time.

    I will try to get an even better card and see what happens from there.

    Max2play didnt supply my original card.

    I was using one of my own.

    Hi,
    I believe I have found a partial solution to my own problem.

    When I had ssh running on my macbook and checking running processes. I could see Apache2 webserver had stopped after a reboot.

    When I start Apache2 via SSH. I can immediately login as normal.

    I have the same problem after one reboot. Through the tv i can see the linux desktop is running perfectly. But i can’t login or use
    SSH to open the interface. If i cut the power completely for at least 10 seconds this usually allows me to login after I restart it. My questions are:

    How to check if the Max2Play process is running?

    Where is it in the linux file system?

    How to start it?

    TIA

    Ok brilliant. Just adjusting my path to my music files now. This Nano editor is killing me…:( first time I seen it.

    //192.168.1.254 /mnt/share cifs user=name,password=pass,sec=ntlm,iocharset=utf8,vers=1.0 cifs user=samba,password=12345678,sec=ntlm,iocharset=utf8,vers=1.0

    The debug info is the same as the critical lines in my fstab file. The info is doubled up?

    Hi, click the link above, when my pi reboots I could see that on the text. The share was found but it was unable to accept my password. Am I correct in this? I got the remote control going and am easily able to follow any commands. I put all those ones through and made new directories mnt/share.

    Now I wonder what to do.

    [SOLVED]

    Hi, thanks for the reply. My Max2Play is: 2.47 and Pi 3B+

    Just tried again:

    Shellinabox install started
    Installation started – This Messages refreshes every 3 seconds to show current installation status. When finished this message disappears.

    Hi ,
    the router address / samba share is 192.168.1.254 i am sure of that. But you are right about the share name
    I got rid of the share. and i can see it loading up when i reboot and read the text. So I am making some progress. Now it it gives me this error:
    mount error(22): Invalid argument Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) mount error(22): Invalid argument Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)
    Mountpoint NOT added! Please refer to the description below!

    The 12345678 is my password for the samba share.

    Ok boom I havent made those directories or made those permissions. Let me try that. Thanks for your help

    Heiner, first thanks for you hard work. I like max2play but I seem to take a while to get things working. The web interface problem is easier. I can always log in. But I need to do a hard reset after a reset from the webpage. Before the web login seems to work. I do have some other questions though. Thanks

    Hi thanks for the reply. On this router the samba share has the same address as the router. My macbook can see it on the network as: smb:192.168.1.254 maybe i can try that? I have tried this many times several times over and cant get it to work. Must be doing something silly somewhere….
