This is an old revision of the document!
1) Go to http://mybooklive/UI/ssh (case sensitive) replace “mybooklive” if you have renamed it to something else, or replace it with its IP address. It's a hidden UI menu to enable SSH.
2) Log in to through SSH by the IP for the device, then Install Optware
wget http://mybookworld.wikidot.com/local--files/optware/setup-mybooklive.sh
sh setup-mybooklive.sh
echo "export PATH=$PATH:/opt/bin:/opt/sbin:." >> /root/.bashrc
echo "export PATH=$PATH:/opt/bin:/opt/sbin:." >> /etc/profile
logout
Log back into the SSH
3) Test Optware and install a simple text editor
ipkg update
ipkg install nano
nano
A basic editor opens, hit ctrl-x to close.
4) Install Core-Utils
ipkg install coreutils
ln -s /opt/bin/coreutils-dirname /usr/bin/dirname
5) Install Java
apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk
java -version
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java
6) Install Serviio and setup user account to run the program
useradd serviio
passwd serviio
usermod -a -G root serviio
mkdir /usr/local/serviio/
cd /usr/local/serviio/
wget http://download.serviio.org/releases/serviio-0.6.0.1-linux.tar.gz
tar -xf serviio-0.6.0.1-linux.tar.gz
chown serviio -R /usr/local/serviio
7) Launch Serviio as a test
cd serviio-0.6.0.1/bin
serviio.sh
You will be at a blank line, it appears like nothing is happening, yet the server is starting. One way to confirm is to open another ssh window, log in and run
tail -f /usr/local/serviio/serviio-0.6.0.1/log/serviio.log
This will show a live output of the serviio log file. When you are satisfied that it's launching, hit ctrl-c in both ssh windows.
8) Setup Daemon to launch serviio upon bootup of your MyBook Live.
8a) create serviiod
nano /etc/default/serviiod
Copy following code, the service account is the name of the account we created in step 6. Also, the Daemon is the path to the serviio.sh file, update if you use a different version/location.

8c) Set files to launch on startup
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/serviio
update-rc.d serviio defaults
Reboot MyBook Live. Check status when back up by using either the tail command above, or
/etc/init.d/serviio status
9) Access server through the console, use http://www.serviio.org/component/content/article/21#q2 as a reference. With respect to Mac, when entering the propertly, I placed them with the 3rd <dict> section, the one located after the property key.
10) Two other commands to stop or start the service when signed into the ssh, though you could use the console to do the same.
/etc/init.d/serviio start
/etc/init.d/serviio stop
