Just started looking into setting up an audio server. I successfully installed volumio os on my 2008 mac mini but I'm interested to see if Mo0de would be a workable on a mac mini. I tried various things (installed Raspberry Pi Desktop for Mac) Created a usb installer of Mo0de using the Raspberry imager but the mac didn't recognize it. 

Is this even possible? 

Thanks!

The OS used by moode is PiOS Lite which only runs on Raspberry Pi SBC.

A lot of our users, myself included run a dedicated Pi for serving audio files and as a multiroom sender. It's just a couple of button clicks to configure moode for this role.

That sounds awesome and I'll probably give it a try in the future... but for now I would like to put this old mac mini to use so I'll continue down the volumino route. Thanks for your help!
