This Version boots up incredible fast, but i can not edit the config.txt; Errormessage is "Error writing config.txt: Read-only file system".

Btw is it possible to compile Mpd with "--enable-pipe-output"? I am using Brutefir to make some room correction, it works great on Raspbian ( I am not familar with Arch :oops: )

Regards

I try new image.It work perfectly for me. Library update is very very fast i love it.

The config.txt can be edit without any problem (i use winSCP to edit)

* With powerful RasPi2 i think if set it self to be a wifi router (I mean if it can use without need of external wifi router) it will be perfect.

Got it working doing "sudo umount /boot" and "sudo fsck.fat -trawl /dev/mmcblk0p1"

What are you doing, it's so easy to edit this file.
There is no need for mounting / unmounting ......

As nopphong wrote, the file is writable.
There are several methods to do this.-
- getting access via shh
- using a SFTP client like WinSCP
- writing directly to the sd card from your pc (linux / MacOS / Windows)

If you need more help let me know.

Btw is it possible to compile Mpd with "--enable-pipe-output"?

On GitHub you can find the PKGBUILD file.

This (AP mode) will be the next feature to be implemented.

You have to edit the file /boot/config.txt like described here

HI
I've been using SSH open boot / config.txt, but config.txt originally had the following command

# Uncomment one of these lines to enable an audio interface
# device_tree_overlay = hifiberry-dac
# device_tree_overlay = hifiberry-dacplus
# device_tree_overlay = hifiberry-digi
# device_tree_overlay = hifiberry-amp
# device_tree_overlay = iqaudio-dac
# device_tree_overlay = iqaudio-dacplus
----------------------------------------------------------------

Can I edit which sections of the instruction

Thank you for help.

Normally it should be easy , i know. But for some reason i do not unserstand, there was an error on the boot partition. After doing fsck everything is up and running. Perhaps it is the card.

Hi f1251218,

Can I edit which sections of the instruction

From the HiFiBerry website:

Configure device tree overlay file

You don’t have to edit /etc/modules anymore, but need to load the correct device tree file. To do this, you must edit /boot/config.txt and add the following line
DAC
dtoverlay=hifiberry-dac
DAC+
dtoverlay=hifiberry-dacplus
Digi/Digi+
dtoverlay=hifiberry-digi
Amp/Amp+
dtoverlay=hifiberry-amp

No problem, but for other users this sounds like there is a general problem with the image.

For your mpd problem (adding --enable-pipe-output) i made a package for you.
You can it install with:

pacman -U mpd-rune-0.19.6-1-pipe-output-armv7h.pkg.tar.xz

The latest version on the image is 0.19.9, but this should be not a problem.

Thanks for MPD, installing was quite easy, mpd -V shows now pipe Output. But I stuck again, "pacman -S brutefir" shows, that brutefir is not available.....(These are the packages that are needed to compile Brutefir under Debain " build-essential flex libasound2-dev libjack2-dev libfftw3-dev") I think after 10 years "apt-get install" i have to go something deeper into Arch. :mrgreen:

Hi Da Alchemist,

But I stuck again, "pacman -S brutefir" shows, that brutefir is not available.....

I'm very interested in what you are doing, so i made a brutefir package for you.

pacman -U brutefir-1.0m-1-armv7h.pkg.tar.xz

Please open a thread in the DIY section and post your results.

Hi Frank,
I installed the new image, but now I have troubles to install drivers for my wifi dongle - TP-LINK TL-WN725N v2

pacman -S dkms-8188eu

doesn't work as it's already in the system:

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
dkms-8188eu: /lib exists in filesystem
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

But network UI menu keeps scanning and can't find any networks.

Hi unameme,

/lib is now deprecated in arch linux.
I've made a symbolic link to /usr/lib on the current image,
but this seems to work not in all purposes.

The install path has to be changed, see here.

Best would be to buy a wifi dongle that is supported by arch linux.
For example a cheap EDIMAX.

Frank

unameme

Thanks, Frank.
For now I will try to install it as in the link, but to end my constant troubles I think an Edimax is the best option.

To be sure, Edimax EW-7811Un N150 NANO is the supported one?

hondagx35

Hi unameme,

yes lsusb shows:

Edimax Technology Co., Ltd EW-7811Un 802.11n Wireless Adapter
