LG N2R1 Installing Squeezebox server manual

For those interested: Squeezebox server installation on LG N2R1 manual.
... means shortened to save space.
Used: firmware Firmware 2569t Rev 1.0.0 van http://lg.threnor.de/
Based on post: http://forum.nas-portal.org/showthread.php?9035-SqueezeBox-installieren&highlight=squeeze
where I added these steps as well.

Enable MySQL database, MySQL is required for Squeezeboxserver

In the LG ADMIN WEBINTERFACE you select Service -> Web service click edit. Enable Mysql, select a password or leave it as root select apply. Admin interface becomes a bit unresponsive, after 30 seconds you can reload the webpage. Mysql is now running.

To test:

LG-NAS:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
[sudo] password for admin: 
 * Starting MySQL database server: mysqld already running.
LG-NAS:~$

LG-NAS:~$ mysqladmin -u root -p version
Enter password:
