How to use it

1. Start in the destination Linux, install, disable serial interface in raspi-config (free GPIO 17 and GPIO 18) and poweroff

2. Get another SDCARD in a USB adapter or USB stick, format it FAT32 or EXT4, copy music to it, put it in Raspberry Pi. Or get the Raspbian SDCARD out and put some music from another computer in the ext4 folder /root/music

3. Put hardware buttons that pull to ground when pressed on GPIO 17 (DELETE) and GPIO 18 (NEXT)

4. Put SDCARD in

5. Apply 5V power, listen and delete or next, remove 5V power, it remembers the last song played.

6. When you consider there is no more music to be deleted, make a backup of the music or /root/music and rename the backup to selected-music-YY-MM-DD

7. Remove power listen to the music in another player and go to 2) when you get bored with current music.
