Hi all. Firstly please know I’m new to all things Linux, but I’m a software developer in the commercial (i.e. windows, .NET) world. I have a Raspberry pi and when I first got it I ran it with Raspbian and I could access the entire file structure.
Now I’m running the Volumio distro (is that the right term?) on it and I can’t seem to get at anything. I followed instructions (blindly) to expand the disk partion to make maximum use of the sd card. I want to do lots of other stuff on the pi as well as using it to stream music from my NAS to my dodgy old stero unit.
So here’s the question. If I log in to volumio as root ( over ssh with putty) and type ‘ls’ at the prompt all I get is three files that I know I created myself. How do I get at the rest of the file system?
If I llook at the volumio machine on my network from windows file manager all I can see is NASMusic (my share on which is mounted my NAS drives and the music folders I want to stream), RAMPlay (dont know what this is and its empty) and WebRadio (holding the volumio web radio pls stuff).
Is there an admin login that gives me access to everything? If I’m reading about pi projects they all expect me to create files in /home/pi. If I want to do create a php web site on the pi where would I put it? etc. etc.
Just get me started understanding volumio and I’ll learn the rest from the books I’ve got.
Thanks for helping a windows dummy
Bob
