In the first step create a media share directory and upload all you media files to this directory. In our example we are going to use /mnt/media directory:
# mkdir /opt/media # COPY YOUR MEDIA FILES TO /opt/mediaNext, install forked-daapd daemon:
# apt-get install forked-daapdOnce the installation is finished confirm that forked-daapd is running:
# /etc/init.d/forked-daapd status forked-daapd is runningand you may also want to check on what port is forked-daapd listening. The default socket is 0.0.0.0:3689.
