sukyung Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 I just installed Audiolinux 2.0. At bootup I see: Not sure whether this is a problem. ram = 16ga , Installed in Optane Memory Link to comment
hifi25nl Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Are you sure that you did install the correct way? It seems that UEFI partition is missing. Also you should not see ramroot message. Ramroot is disabled as default. AudioLinux --> https://www.audio-linux.com developer of AudioLinux realtime OS Link to comment
sukyung Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 You have activated ramroot. Link to comment
hifi25nl Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 No, ramroot is not enabled, but you cannot install headless version to 16 GB, as stated on the website. I will try to make a second 16 GB version 200_16 in the next days. AudioLinux --> https://www.audio-linux.com developer of AudioLinux realtime OS Link to comment
hifi25nl Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 I am just uploading a 16 GB version. Wait at least 30' Remember that the size of your target drive could be less than 16, even if the manufacturer declare otherwise. HOTFIX only for headless version: please update menu to version 201 AudioLinux --> https://www.audio-linux.com developer of AudioLinux realtime OS Link to comment
Bricki Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 I have got audiolinux 2.0 up and running on my endpoint NUC and so far I'm liking the sound quality change very much.... It seems to be smoother, less forced with more ease and a cleaner sound....and I don't even have ramroot working yet. All I need running on this NUC is roonbridge so I'm going to have to remove all unused applications to try and get ramroot working on my 4gb RAM. Last time I used yaourt to remove roon server and hqplayer.... what can I use with audiolinux 2.0? What commands and syntax do I need to get right to remove all applications except for roon bridge?

Patatorz Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Hello, just installed the 2.0 on my new setup (Supermicro / Xeon / M2 Samsung 970 evo plus). No problem so far and very smooth. I will deep dive like @Bricki in the sound quality and the different options. Great job Piero ! Blog / Forum Link to comment

Boomboy Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 i cant get mpd installed . i tried in root pacman -S mpd also via the audiolinux menu .. but no luck . i got a few error messages . @hifi25nl i will send you an email over the weekend Link to comment
Popular Post lmitche Posted November 1, 2019 Author Popular Post Share Posted November 1, 2019 Over here, I've got AL2.0 headless running as both a bootable USB stick with Roonbridge and a bootable Optane based Roonserver. There are a bunch of new features, most notably the boot process is much faster. The app pinning function has also been separated from the process of creating isolated cores offering more control. Lastly custom profiles makes SQ tests of various configurations much easier. There are many other new features and improvements, really too numerous to mention. Piero's hard work is evident throughout the product. I am grateful to Piero for this effort. Well done! Forehaven, Patatorz, Superdad and 2 others 2 3 Pareto Audio aka nuckleheadaudio Link to comment

A little dangerous since it could remove too much... best to do before configuring Audiolinux. I am still struggling to get it small enough to use ramroot on 4gb. I have used pacman to remove hqplayer-embedded, hqplayer-network-audio-daemon and roonserver. Last time this was enough to get ramroot working. Should I start again with the new 16gb image or will that have no impact on the ramroot size? Are there any other installed applications I can delete? I tried airplay but it wasn't found. I also tried to remove dependencies but I think that because I already removed the applications with pacman it didn't work... should I try again with new image and use pamac with the -o option Link to comment
hifi25nl Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Try to remove some dependencies left, no necessary to reinstall (a little risky, as I said before) pamac remove ffmpeg libgmpris rygel adduser-deb shairport-sync -o (pay attention to what is removing before pressing Y) -> shairport-sync is linux AirPlay AudioLinux --> https://www.audio-linux.com developer of AudioLinux realtime OS Link to comment

jcn3 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 @hifi25nl -- i'm running into an issue with v2. i use AL with roon server on a nuc 8i5. the issue is that roon server crashes. it was happening initially when i was trying to restore the roon database, but got around that by not changing any default settings within AL (couldn't import the databse with the "red" profile OR if i updated roon). by not changing any of the default settings, i was able to restore the database, but roon now crashes after a few seconds of playing a song. i did update the system in this order: * update AL menu and then rebooted * update system and then rebooted * update kernel and then rebooted thoughts? unfortunately, AL v2 isn't usable for me at this point.

hifi25nl Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Please Check memory: free --giga Check hard disk space: df -H After check periodically the status of roonserver: systemctl status roonserver Be sure that roonserver is the ONLY service enabled: -> Go to Audio menu, stop all services and re-enable roonserver It could also be the "Roon linux bug" (not yet fully resolved by Roon).

hifi25nl Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 As you can see you are out of drive space! Look at /dev/sda2. 100% use Like this the system cannot work and you must reinstall because this can produce unrecoverable errors on files. As clearly stated on website: 6) Launch gparted and extend the ext4 partition until covering the remaining part of the hard disk (this will fix also GPT size errors. note that you will need more than the default size for Roon database) AudioLinux --> https://www.audio-linux.com developer of AudioLinux realtime OS Link to comment
