DietPi: creating a lean-and-mean Roon Bridge

Just to be clear, in case there’s any confusion: I don’t have anything to do with the creation of the DietPi distro (it’s a labour of love from Daniel Knight) – I’m just sharing my experiences using it as the foundation to run Roon Bridge on.

I guess you could upgrade the DietPi installation from Jessie to Stretch by changing ‘jessie’ to ‘stretch’ in the first line of

/etc/apt/sources.list

and running

apt-get update && apt-get upgrade

afterwards.

Not sure if it will break anything DietPi related – and be aware that Stretch is still unstable/unfinished (I’m aware of the requirements of HQ Player’s NAA, but that does not change the way things are). Also, when running NAA and RB in parallel, you must close HQP in order for NAA to release your Pi’s audio device so Roon Bridge can take over.
