TrueNAS (FreeBSD) Ports?
Posted: Tue Feb 16, 2021 7:04 am
I know this is a probably a shot in the dark, but i have to try. SO i ran UMS on RPi for a while and had great success. I mostly use UMS for digital music both PCM & DSD with my devices being able to handle those formats directly, or at least through some customer renderer configs. And I run headless.
So, I finally got around to building out a my own NAS using the TrueNAS Core and wanted to run UMS within a Jail/IoCage (their version of containerization). the Jails are fairly straight forward and i think i can handle building that but i'm concerned is that since this is actually FreeBSD under the covers, the normal linux downloads may not work and that I might have to rebuild from source code. While I can run mvn builds and do some configuration, i've long given up being a true developer. i saw a few people did this like 6-8 years ago, but nothing recently. How much of a project am i really undertaking? Any advice or gotchas I should be aware of?
