| Based on [[usbboot|Boot a LaCie NAS (Kirkwood based) from an USB key]] this document intends to provide further information on how to use USB sound card and Music Player Daemon on LaCie Network Space 2. The setup works reasonably well using a cheap 4-port USB hub, but beware that booting from USB fails if USB sound card is turned on during the bootup. The sound card used in this setup was Cambridge Audio DacMagic but any other USB card will do. | Based on [[usbboot|Boot a LaCie NAS (Kirkwood based) from an USB key]] this document intends to provide further information on how to use USB sound card and Music Player Daemon on LaCie Network Space 2.
