Since I run DietPi very stripped down and 'headless' with no desktop environment, no keyboard or mouse support, no video output, etc. some might be wondering.....How would one have access to the Raspberry Pi at all in order to install software and manage configuration? As it turns out - and lucky for us - even the most stripped down base DietPi includes something they call Dropbear which is a lightweight SSH server.
1 - Create bootable DietPi SD card for Raspberry Pi.
2 - Connect Raspberry Pi over Ethernet (not wifi) and boot it up.
3 - Find Raspberry Pi IP address using iPhone App to 'scan' the network.
4 - From a terminal window: ssh root@IPaddr (the Raspberry Pi's IP Address)
5 - default root password: dietpiOnce logged in DietPi presents a few text based menus in your terminal window for further configuration. The nice thing about Roon and Roon Bridge (once installed and running on the Raspberry Pi) is that you won't need to figure out the Raspberry Pi's IP address ever again (as you do with some other players). Roon will auto-discover the Roon Bridge and display it along with it's IP address. Pretty cool. Similarly for the USB DAC on the Raspberry Pi / Roon Bridge, it just works. Unlike pCP and others you don't have to find or take educated guesses at the device path and input it manually.
Screen captures from several years ago. Wow, these are old!
I was running Raspberry Pi 3 back then.
