Snakeoil 1.4.0 (High End)

[agent_kith]

@hkphantomgtr using USB C, not GPIO.  And the change was set_max_current_enable=1 in config.txt so that it would boot with 3A power supply.

May look at getting official power supply.

Technically this will just disable some of the software checks on the Pi and allow operations to continue. There are pros and cons of doing so I guess, if you try to run more things and the PSU cannot supply enough current then things will not work (would components be damaged? Possibly but unlikely).

Also although the official power supply will work - however bear in mind under load it can emit a high pitch noise that is super irritating. I think I have lost my ability to hear these noises from my listening position so that's not going to be a problem for me, but if you are still sensitive bear this in mind . Transformer hum is no way as bad as these high pitch squeaks.

Thanks for your kind reply. Yes, I did run what you said before : sudo chmod -R 777 \media\music\sda3.  "ls" command shown the device permission was stricted to read only.

Hmm. I may have to look into the permissions thing. If you can still scan for the music then it's not something you need to bother for now.

BTW, could I directly log in as root, instead log in user account then elevate to root via sudo su command?  Thanks again.

Best practice is not do do this actually. Good practice is to  prefix everything with sudo if you want..

But technically you can modify the SSH daemon to do whatever you want (including directly logging in as root). Look up the Internet on instructions on how to do so. Snakeoil OS is unlike other OS because you have FULL control, and this includes logging into the root account directly. I do not recommend it personally, but not going to stop people from doing what they like. Our motto is - designed by us, defined by you, i.e. you have complete freedom.
