FRank,
thanks for the welcome. I really like this software and have it installed on 2 BBBs and 1 C1+. The BBBs work well, but I wanted the later version of Rune, so bought a C1+. I like the added features of the C1+ and RuneUI and it seems to be stable and robust, but it's interfacing via USB to a Cambridge Audio DAC.
I bought the C2 with the hifi shield to build a setup for a friend. Its current status will be difficult for him to support being a relative techno-phobe. Actually, in its current state, I'm struggling to support it and I'm pretty comfortable with technology be it Mac OSX, Linux, Windows, coding, or hardware.
"a while" can be immediately as in refresh the page, to later when I try to use it or check on it. It worked for about 30 minutes or so, I think. I played part of an album wirelessly on it. I went to check on it again later and it was disconnected from the network, so I plugged it back into the wired Ethernet and found that the wireless was down, but also the network mount. So, I reentered all the parameters again, SSID and passphrase, and NAS parameters, etc. It worked again wirelessly. This morning the settings had disappeared again, however, I had moved it to a new location. I had to plug in the wired Ethernet again. It was like it was in a virgin state nothing was where I had set it up before: timezone, network mounting, wireless parameters, input source, even the hifi shield was gone from the selection dropdown (I had to go back and re-enable the kernel module for it).
