Jason,
First to answer your 2 questions:
Two variables, true. But... a diff of the config the custom kernel and the TC (3.8.13 both) shows nothing suspicious to me (you can check my attachment) and I know I might be wrong...
My /opt/debextra/repo1 is identical to yours.... for the "stable" release (LMS 7.7.3), but I also tried "testing" and "unstable" releases too (7.74, and 7.8.x nightly build respectively). At the moment (lack of more time...) I got to sce for 2: stable and unstable but only on the VM (dCore5.14.03.09 is the latest iso I found). In the release candidate there is the newer dCore.gz of 14.03.22, but no iso. I saw at git and your changes seem minimal (sceconfig). But as said, the older version (iso) gave more errors (might be because it was a live system?... I run it straight of the virtual CD: no special options at the boot screen, just return.
The sces created in that VM were copied to the thin client's tcedir and they were loaded OK. I also compared one of the releases (diff with Winmerge). I think it was the unstable release. The two files compared were same release and deps (perl), just created in the two enviroments. The diffs were "minimal" (I know I know....1 single bit...), i.e., only in the first and last blocks of the squashfs. Anyway, as said, the realhost digested the sces built in the VM without complaining or panicking.
I think it would be more productive to see what it takes to get it running (instead of trying to find our mistakes), so please tell us your experience and we try to copycat you
.
BTW. Voyage 0.92 (debian linux) runs the LMS (stable I guess, i.e., v7.7.3) so this should be possible.

Then I would like to comment about your previous post with a list of additional packages (that was the reply I was writing before your post arrived :-)
---
I just tried on the real box (aka realhost from now on) by importing your list saving them to a file, one package per line:
echo $files > extra-packages-for-LMS
importsce -f extra-packages-for-LMS
loadsce -d -r -b extra-packages-for-LMS
sudo /etc/init.d/logitechmediaserver start
:-(
I also imported on the realhost all the packages mentioned in the page (Packages) at slimdevices.debian.com in the P.S. of my previous post. loadsced them and tried again. All this in the realhost. ....to no avail. the server does not start.
It would help to see your logs. For me 'loadsce -d' did not help. In the VM running from the ISO (live) I could not generate logs (got errors).
So...I am intringued...
Does anybody else get the "cannot read /opt/debextra/Packages " errors when importing logitechmediaserver?If you have time,
could you post your /tmp/.debinstalled on a system running the server? (you mentioned seeing the webUI at port 9000 on 127.0.0.1)
or your /var/log/squeezeboxserver?I'll can try on another laptop tomorrow.
The more I see the code (git) , the more I like your work
(...it brings me memories)
Sorry for the long post and thanks again,
LDS
