Noob question: How do I install SnakeoilOS on RPI?

[uglymusic]

I've finally had a chance to work with SnakeoilOS again. Using Raspberry Pi OS, fully updated, on an RPi4, I got these errors:



The web interface works, and installing the Firmware updates does nothing to help LMS run.

There's no ubuntu-restricted-extras in Raspian I believe, so you can ignore that error. The script is actually designed to terminate on that error but I think it didn't (which was a lucky break).

Try and install this manually first:
 

Code:

sudo apt install libcrypt-openssl-rsa-perl

Then re-run the installer. Hopefully LMS will install fine from there.

Have already updated the installer script to install the above package.

Thank you @agent_kith.

After running the above, Raspberry Pi OS suggested I run:
 

Code:

sudo apt --fix-broken install

This seems to have done the job. LMS seems stable (it wasn't when I was trying with Ubuntu on the RPi (now abandoned, as per your advice)), so I'll configure SnakeoilOS and LMS on my music server RPi and see how that goes. I might be a day or two before I get that done, though.
