Playing music quickly after install - Snoopy8 - 18-Apr-2025

As some of you may know, I am currently working on the Wiki to make it easier for beginners to get SnakeOil running quickly.  Wondering what it would take to get music running quickly after install. Some initial thoughts:
  • DAC connected to USB; can music player to fully configured, ready to play?
  • Drive connected to USB; can it be mounted automatically?
  • Use MPD, already installed, does library scan begin automatically?
  • Use myMPD, but default is not to install
Maybe put this as an install option?  Even a partial list of the above will help a beginner...
