When booting from the SD card, the eMMC is visible as the first block device so copying the DietPi image is as simple as. That wasn't a big deal, just meant a couple extra reboots. If you read my previous posts, I jumped the gun in sealing my XU4 in the enclosure so was forced to boot from the SD card and transfer files over to the eMMC afterwards. I was a little skeptical at first given how gaudy their web site is, but it's actually a very well put together Debian (Jessie) Linux based distribution for ARM. I chose DietPi as the OS to run on my XU4. I did install it and tried to get it set up the way I wanted, but after much struggle, headache and frustration I decided to give up and use a bare minimum distribution instead. When I was initially looking at my options there was only one NAS oriented OS that seemed to meet all my requirements - OpenMediaVault. This server runs Plex, shares all the media files via Samba (Windows file sharing) and also runs the Deluge torrent client. Hi all, I bought my first Raspberry recently and I became addicted to it, I installed several things but mainly focused on making it become LOCAL Plex Media Server, by local I mean that it should not need to transcode anything. This article deals with the software side of the setup. A few days ago I wrote about when I physically put together my Odroid-XU4 home media server.
