I'd just go with a m.2 enclosure.

I've never had a problem with the an SD card being the primary booting mechanism. I have the 256gb samsung evo, i think, whatever the best on the market is. Samsung Choice is also recommended. I wish I bought the 512 instead.

The power to my RPi got cut midway through apt upgrade and now I'm not getting any video output from it, is there any way to recover the Raspbian installation without re-installing from scratch?

if you have a linux machine handy you might plug in the card and run fsck on the card's filesystems to see what state it's in and try to fix any issues. or you could flash another card with raspbian, boot up the pi and try using fsck on the bad card (using a usb card reader). i have a feeling the root file table was hosed during the power cut and the card probably doesn't even show up as having any filesystem. at that point you're looking for data recovery tools if there is super important stuff on it, but even that might not be viable. if it's data you can lose, I'd just nuke the card and start over fresh.

Unless you def can’t lose what’s on it, in which case an RPi ain’t the right choice, you should just restart from scratch. Reinstalling stuff you already know you need doesn’t take long.

I tried fsck to no effect, also apparently I need to jump through a bunch of hoops to upgrade the distro on my Linux machine because you can't update a machine that's >6 months out of date for some insane reason.

It is for non-LTS Ubuntu.

I think there you just can't skip versions. So just upgrade to the next version in line and then update to the latest version.

You can’t without manually editing configuration files to point to alternative repositories and to disable compatibility checks, which I managed to botch due to an awkwardly-worded tutorial. I ended up just flattening and reinstalling.

Lazyhound posted:It is for non-LTS Ubuntu. The process for changing over to the old release archive repositories is simple and well documented though (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades), so I'm not really sure what's awkwardly worded there. In the end, don't run non-LTS Ubuntu on systems you want to be able to ignore for months on end. It's not intended to that. CFox posted:I think there you just can't skip versions. So just upgrade to the next version in line and then update to the latest version. Ubuntu officially supports skipping versions only when upgrading from one LTS release to the next. Skipping over versions when going to or from non-LTS versions or jumping two or more LTS versions at a time puts you in uncharted territory.

ubuntu is a hack, yea it's okay (if you want to use it like a windows pc) but its the noob distro. get better, or not. lol, and the sidebar has 'the Amazon app' in Ubuntu still right. God that shows where their priorities are.

Warbird posted:Ubuntu has a GUI? k I will play the pedantic card. Ubuntu comes with a DE that used to really suck, but is now Gnome, which also sucks imo. But you can edit .xinitrc to exec whatever you want. I do like booting into the console, without the login manager. I'd love to have a headless RPi but Im not sure for which purpose.

You gotta really want something shiny not to go with the latest LTS release of Ubuntu Ubuntu got firmware updating ability I think with 20.04 LTS, at least the Kbuntu release did anyways, that was pretty cool to update my Thinkpad's firmware using a GUI in linux for the first time ever, only time in recent memory I installed a non-LTS since 9.10 or whatever was the last version to come with "netbook remix" UI which I guess was the earliest functional prototype (but totally incompatible) of Unity

I have a raspberry pi 3b with DreamPi installed. It's a tool to let the Dreamcast get online without needing an actual dial up connection. Anyway, I'm trying to get it to work with a wireless USB adapter I bought. It's this one specifically: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00H28H8DU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_1qZQRnoEmW9LK When I run ifconfig, it doesn't list any wireless adapters as available (just eth and lo). From reading reviews this should be supported out of the box but is there something im missing?

The top question with an answer was: quote:Does it work with Raspberry Pi B+? This is four years after their previous reply saying it was plug and play with rasbperry pi. The Pi 3B has wifi internally so I don't know if it's needed, but I don't know why it wouldn't show up in your interface list.

I assume they’re running PiHole in a container and portainer is there to have a GUI to manage it and any other containers. Depending on your network setup that may be the way to go.

pihole and portainer are both in containers. portainer is there for babys first container management tool. i dont necessarily need docker but the ability to plop a container where i need at some point will be nice since i plan to move the pihole to a pi zero. also i want to get docker experience since we dont use docker at work. i also set up home assistant in a container last night as well and started configuring that with the couple smart home items we own. barkbell fucked around with this message at 15:37 on Sep 8, 2020 |

Is there any reason I should use 64 bit PiOS on my Pi 4? I'm inclined to run normal 32 bit just because I need to be able to build things in 32 bit. That's because of a lot of buggy as hell build setups that freak out extpecting 64 bit to be x86-64. I only got the Pi 4 because i wanted the 8GB of RAM, and Raspbian / PiOS has a tiny memory footprint. My Jetson Nano is a disaster when it comes to RAM. With the 4GB plus a swap partition it still freaks out at the slightest thing.

That's because of a lot of buggy as hell build setups that freak out extpecting 64 bit to be x86-64. I guess it would depend if you expect a single process to use more than 3GB of RAM. The 64 bit OS supports that but 32 bit does not.

You definitely want to run 64 bit, just fix the build system (easier said)

Is there a specific thread for home assistant? I just bought a raspberry PI, sd card/reader and a router/cable setup so I can start making a smarthome without Jeff bezos watching me masturbate. I have some python and Linux experience so I figure it won’t be too bad. Philips hue stuff is apparently all compatible with the system so custom lighting will be my first thing, followed by a sensor/camera setup.

If you've re flashed it, I assume its recognized and read/writable from another computer, but the Pi isn't booting from it?
