I’ve been able to get Firefly running on my unmodded Linkstation Live (with a 500GB disk 😉 ).
It loads 4000 songs into my Soundbridge in 1/2 the time it took my slug 😀 .
Linkstation Live seem very well priced for the spec these days (150UKP for 500GB version – and the have GB ethernet too).
I posted a detailed howto on the Linkstation forums – thread is http://forum.linkstationwiki.net/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=3509
Hope this is useful / interesting for some!!
Cheers,
BB
That’s a very useful write up. Would you consider adding it to the Firefly wiki (wiki.fireflymediaserver.org)?
I’ll have a bash.
Hopefully I can re-use the wiki code over at the LSWiki too.

Wasn’t too bad. Page is now up http://wiki.fireflymediaserver.org/Linkstation_Live_Pro_InstallBB

Woot!
Thanks!
Add yourself to the credits page, as well.

Fantastic :D. That plugs a big gap in the install guides section.
It also looks very easy to follow which means the Linkstation may be a good alternative for those daunted by a slug install.

Just need someone to verify it works now!!!
The devs at Linkstationwiki seem confident, but I’d like to see a post from someone with a 100% stock and unmodified LS say it worked for them. I had fiddled about a little bit with libraries before trying this out so there’s an outside chance I got something working by accident 😯 .
That said, assuming this process does work, then it is BY FAR the easiest way to get Firefly running on a NAS. I have a slug, and the reflashing from NSLU2 was by no means an enjoyable experience!! The Linkstation Live/Pro process really is a piece of cake, with no reflashing required. Splendid – all credit to the smart guys at Linkstationwiki.

Linkstation != Linksys 😉
Yes, but this is only because the folks at Linksys (NSLU2) decided to exclude telnet access and whatnot.
Anyhow, I wanna get a Terastation Live, but I’ll deffo keep my slug 😉Hi,
I tried the instructions at http://wiki.fireflymediaserver.org/Linkstation_Live_Pro_Install and now Firefly runs on my LinkStation Live (which was 100% unmodified before, because I received it 2 days ago).
Congratulations, the instructions are very good and even a Linux newbie like me could follow it without problems. 😀
But there is a big problem:
My Roku M1000 connects to the LinkStation and I can browse through my Songs (all in flac-format) but I can not play anyone of them. Additionally I added some Songs in MP3-format and they work, i.e. the Roku can play them without problem.
But for every flac-Song my Roku tells me that it can’t play that song and asks me if it should try the next one.

The flac files are OK because I have exactly the same library on a Windows based PC were the Roku connects and plays without any problem.
Any idea what could be wrong, or at least any hints how find out if something is missing?

Ahhhh!!!! BRILLIANT. You are the first to verify this DOES work. Many, many thanks.

OK. This is entirely possible – I don’t have any flac encoded files. I’ll try to rip one and test myself.
The switches use during compilation of the firefly binary you downloaded are shown in this post: http://forum.linkstationwiki.net/viewtopic.php?p=33876#p33876
It’s supposed to include flac support. I’ll need to pass this one over to the experts.
