thats my old static ip for the system its now 192.168.0.207

#

the old one was 192.168.0.21

#

whats the new way of doing this?

grand pivot
dark silo
#

are there any config.yaml examples of these so i can see how the syntax is made

grand pivot
#

right there

#

read that page

dark silo
#

so we just put a line like so

#

https://example.domain.com:8123

#

or is it external_url: https://example.domain.com:8123

#

do we need the 8123?

grand pivot
#

just read the page

#

or do it in the UI, as it shows

#

whatever you use to access your instance

dark silo
#

im using the web browser gui file editor

#

im just not sure the formatting of the line

#

so some guidence if this is correct would be great

#

external_url: https://example.domain.com:8123

#

because its saying this is incorrect inside http

# 
# Loads default set of integrations. Do not remove.
default_config:
http:
  # For extra security set this to only accept connections on localhost if Caddy is on the same machine
  # server_host: 127.0.0.1
  # Update this line to be your domain
  use_x_forwarded_for: true
  external_url: https://ha.mydomain.stream:8123

Hi,
Trying to update HA Core but everytime I run ha core update, system is crashing and not rebooting (have to disconnect PSU). Nothing relevant in logs.

Hello

#

I moved to 2024.2.1

#

it says to upgrade python to 3.12

#

I installed the new python version

#

but site-package folder is empty

#

and homeassistant is not installed anymore, cause it's installed in python 3.11

#

how can I migrate site-package folder from python 3.11 to python 3.12 ?

humble mirage
#

You're running a pure Core install? Why?

#

If you must then use pyenv to manage your Python venvs

Also check ha host logs and let the helpers be the judge of relevancy πŸ™‚

Could under-voltage detected be a problem performing updates?

It'll cause all sorts of problems

A common problem there is corrupt writes to the SD/SSD

Hi,
I am new to the Home Assistant world and just bought myself a Raspberry Pi 4 (model b) with a 64 gb micro sd card. I asked this question yesterday on Home Assistant Discord server and no one were able to help. They did prompt me to buy a micro hdmi cable to get the log on screen and see what was going on. The problem:

I did install the Home Assistant OS 11.5 (RPI 4 / 400) according to the guide from Home Assistant webpage (https://www.home-assistant.io/installation/raspberrypi/). I did it by using the Raspberry Pi Imager v1.8.5.

The installation did work, and i got a message to unload the sd card.
When I enter the power button into the Raspberry Pi 4, (I also have entered the sd card to the slot underneath prior to connecting the powercord) it boots up (green light flickering beside the static red light in front). I have an ethernet cable connected to the RPI 4 and its connected to the router, same local network as my computer.

However, I am unable to connect through the browser by either homeassistant.local:8123 or homeassistant:8123. I dont see any RPI 4 / HA / Home Assistant either in my router, so I dont find any IP adress for it. I have also tried to use Fing without success.

I have tried to flash/re-install the HA on my Sd card multiple times withoiut luck. Do you guys have any suggestions on what might be the issue here?

I installed the HA on the SD card from a USB-C / SD card adapter since i dont have a sd card slot on my stationary computer. But I have also tried to install it from a laptop with internal card reader, with the same issue. Maybe there is a defect SD card even though it is brand new? If so, what should i buy? Is it still A2 versions? and is 64gb enough?

crude inlet
#

64GB is plenty, but I would try another SD card. Get several cards as they are cheap.

raw prism
#

Ok, so based on the log information, you think that it might be a faulty sd card? I can go buy a new.

Should I aim for A1 or A2?
32/64 or 128?
Im only going to use Home Assistant on it, with some addons.

crude inlet
#

yes, based on the logs

#

any of those sizes will be fine. 32GB or higher

raw prism
#

Thanks for taking the time to help me. Ill will buy a new card and try to install HA again. Cheers

crude inlet
#

Class 10 or higher

raven forge
#

Wouldn't buying a external SSD be a better idea?

crude inlet
#

imo if you want a pc, buy a pc

#

Hey guys, what can I do if update installation takes forever? (Home Assistant OS on KVM).. Trying to update from 2024.1.6 to 2024.2.1..

tiny heart
random river
#

yes :/ unfortently i dont have a backup

tiny heart
#

thats a pitty

#

but I had this aswell, fortunatly I have always a proxmox full backup

random river
tiny heart
#

seems to be maybe an issue, even when Thinkerer said, this has no connection.

#

Im not a programmer, but since now a second known user has this, could this still an HA issue

random river
#

dont know what to do Guess only a reinstall helps

tiny heart
#

to be true, re installing the backup and again backup solved the issue or not solved but it starts again

random river
#

thats great but i dont have one to reinstall :/ did i just made a backup over the website or did u made some other?

#

😭 i dont want to do that but guess if have to luck for me that i only have one room .... only problem is that i have one automisation that i dont know how the recreat bec i made it with the help of chatgpt and the dc xD

#

would u recommend using the imager for that or is there a better way?

tiny heart
#

Depend on the system you use

random river
#

pi4

tiny heart
#

In rpi I guess DD fits good. If you don’t mind the downtime

random river
#

DD?

tiny heart
#

For a full backup

random river
#

ah ok xD

tiny heart
#

Or what you mean with imager? Rpi image install?

random river
#

imager to install HA

#

thought i can just do a backup over website?

tiny heart
#

I guess the official way is the best approach.

random river
#

okay

tiny heart
#

Usually you do a backup, if you don’t uncheck it for each update

#

But I don’t know how to restore this backup, since I always use the Proxmox backup feature

random river
#

mhh ok

tiny heart
#

Maybe someone else can assist you

#

Or have a clue

#

Or the docs πŸ™‚

random river
#

teh docs?

#

where can i ask them

#

i think i cant reach the backup do to the error i get

tiny heart
#

Docs = documentation

random river
#

oh ok xD

#

yeah ok guess there is not way HA does backups but stores them local and since i cant get there because of the error my only chance is to lose it all :/

tiny heart
#

You could try to mount the flash in a different system and search for the backups

random river
#

yeah i put the SD in my computer already but i think i cant see everything als my pc tells me that only 32mb is used

raven forge
#

You need something than can deal with EXT4 and the like.

random river
#

and what would that be?

raven forge
#

Google youros EXT4. You could also live boot ubuntu.

tiny heart
#

Paragon provides a commercial ext4 support. While Linux live cd is free

random river
#

how do i live boot ubunto what even is that xD

#

so ok i got a linux reader i now how to only find where the backups might be

#

found something

#

.tar is the right format from the backups? @tiny heart

humble mirage
#

Yes

random river
#

oh good yes thx tinkerer also for ur help the other day hope that works wish me luck xD

Hi, I tried to install Home Assistant image directly to an SSD drive and I have a problem on the first boot.
"An error occured while installing Home Assistant, check the logs below for more information."

Hardware is Intel NUC. Should I just try to install the image again?

humble mirage
#

What do the logs show?

jolly dagger
#

There is a multiple rows.. is the yellow ones the "problems"?

humble mirage
#

Probably, but sharing the logs will help us help you

jolly dagger
#

Just copy the full logs here?

humble scaffoldBOT
#

Please use a code share site to share code or logs, for example:

Please don't use Pastebin, since it can randomly add spaces to the main view. Please also don't share text as images since it makes it harder for people to help you. Remember that others may have colour blindness, impaired vision, etc.

humble mirage
#

(as mentioned in #rules that you hopefully actually read)

jolly dagger
humble mirage
#

Yes

#

That looks largely fine

jolly dagger
#

It looks like that it wanted an ethernet cable connected before first boot? Interesting.. but now it is preparing πŸ™‚

#

(I flashed the drive again and that is the only thing I changed.. first time I wanted to see if it powers up at all before plugging the ethernet cable)

humble mirage
#

Well... it can't download anything without working internet

#

The image you flash is just the OS and enough to start downloading everything else

jolly dagger
#

Aa.. Ok! Thanks. (I only started it without the cable to see if the scrap yard Intel NUC will even power on)
Well reflash was the solution for this (and plugging the ethernet cable).

Ive tried installing home assistant core several times and with two different OS images and i cannot get logged into home assistant. ive tried all the normal ip adresses and they all come up as page not found. im not really sure what to look into from here or how to get into home assistant from here

humble mirage
#

How are you running HA(OS)?

#

VM, bare metal on a PC, on a Pi4, on ...?

steel flower
#

on a BigTreeTech Pi

humble mirage
#

How are you trying to install there?

#

Please don't say Supervised

steel flower
#

i know its not ideal but Ive talked to a couple people who have done it

humble mirage
#

HAOS won't support it, so that leaves the cursed method or Container

#

How are you trying to install there?

steel flower
#

ive been following a guide that someone that has been helping me gave me

humble mirage
#

Link?

#

You need to help us help you...

steel flower
#

one second lol im not using a link its more of a written guide from someone

humble mirage
#

Oh... gods... this doesn't bode well

humble scaffoldBOT
#

@steel flower I converted your message into a file since it's above 15 lines :+1:

πŸ“Ž message.txt
humble mirage
#

Well... that's ... not great

#

Friends don't suggest that install method

#

Also, there's official docs for a Core install

steel flower
#

okay ill have to look into this. Im sorry, Im very new to this lol

humble mirage
#

Not your fault your "friend" wasn't really a friend

steel flower
#

I was asking about it in another forum and this person offered me help, said they had previously done it so they have been helping me with it

humble mirage
#

Core installs are for *nix greybeards who love compiling software from source

#

Sane people use Docker

steel flower
#

okay ill look into this then lol Thank you. Im really just trying to get HA set up to monitor my printer πŸ˜‚ I ended up way over my head

humble mirage
#

HAOS is the easy button, but won't run on your Pi

#

Container (Docker) is the next easiest

#

Core is hard mode

steel flower
#

yeah i certainly dont want hard mode lmao

#

So ill have to set up a VM and go from there, correct?

humble mirage
#

Not for Docker no

#

Just follow the link above

steel flower
#

i guess my question is how do i install docker?

#

the link assumes i have it installed already

humble mirage
#

Google your OS docker install

steel flower
#

ok so I have to install debian 12.5 onto the pi first, and then I can install docker, and then I will be able to follow the install you initially linked?

humble mirage
#

Well, no

#

You have to install Docker

#

Follow the instructions for the current OS

#

You're using apt above, so it's some form o Debian or derivative ... hence the two links I gave you

#

Depends on whether that's 32bit or 64

steel flower
humble mirage
#

Nah, you just have to ensure that you're 64 bit to follow that

steel flower
#

oh sweet thats awesome news lol its got a 64 bit ARM processor

humble mirage
#

Sure, but is the OS 64 bit πŸ˜‰

steel flower
#

yeah it looks to be 64 bit Debian 11 build

humble mirage
#

Then follow the Debian docs

steel flower
#

great, thank you very much Ill give this a shot when i get home tonight. Ive been effing with this thing for over a month now lol

#

/PATH_TO_YOUR_CONFIG points at the folder where you want to store your configuration and run it. Make sure that you keep the :/config part.
is this path on the Pi or a folder on your pc?

humble mirage
#

Path on the computer running Home Assistant

#

If that's confusing then HAOS may be a better choice

steel flower
humble mirage
#

The Pi is a computer you know πŸ˜‰

steel flower
#

I guess i was just confused by the wording lol idk this is a lot to try and take in, I appreciate your help and patience

#

is there a specific file path i should use for that config file? or just like D:/ Homeassistant/config

humble mirage
#

Well, there's no D: because that's Windows

#

I use /data/ for everything
Compose file in /data/docker/
HA in /data/homeassistant

#

Then you can back up /data/ and get it all

steel flower
humble mirage
#

Yup

steel flower
#

awesome. thank you again i really appreciate all your help. Hopefully i can get this damn thing going lol. All this to save a stupid LED light thats supposed to communicate with my printer lmao

nimble minnow
#

Think this is a stupid question but here goes, for those that has HA, as well as other docker containers installed in a mini pc, is the mini pc connected to a monitor/keyboard/mouse like a normal PC all the time or it's placed elsewhere (like beside a router/server room) after initial setup with just a power supply connected?
What happens if the mini pc loses power supply?
Can HA and all the other containers reboot automatically when the power is turned back on? Curious how other people set up their mini pc physically.

humble mirage
#

What happens if the mini pc loses power supply?
It stops working πŸ˜‰

#

Can HA and all the other containers reboot automatically when the power is turned back on?
Assuming:

  1. the computer boots when power is returned
  2. Docker is configured to start on boot
  3. the container is set to start
nimble minnow
raven forge
#

You can relatively safely test this by properly powering the PC off, the removing power for 10s or so and see what happes if you plug it back in.
You might want to invest in a UPS if you expect this to happen more than once or twice per year.
1.) Check BIOS/UEFI for something named similar to AC Power recovery.
2.) Check systemctl is-enabled docker.service and run systemctl enable docker.service if not.
3.) Research docker restart policy.

tender wren
#

Some BIOSes/UEFIs have an option to power on when power is returned. Better would be an UPS to prevent an ungraceful shutdown

nimble minnow
#

I'll look into UPS, thanks

Hi
I'm trying to build homeassistant in a virtual py environment using pip/pipx and cryptography/openssl failed to build. Is it due to out of memory problem while building openssl? i've one GB RAM rpi3.

fallow hollow
#

ok. understood the problem. it's cryptography requirement. i'm on arch linux and it has python-cryptography 41.x. and latest HA needs cryptography-42.0.2

# 
pip install homeassistant==2023.12.4 --break-system-packages
#

this might work for me.

#

Why is there so much hush to upgrade cryptography in HA? Not all system can build these packages from scratch since they require high CPU/RAM.

rose quest
#

i use duckdns
How to add local to Home Assistant application.

#

i tried but when my phone connected to local. HASS can not load

#

I have set up a fixed ip for HASS

#

On HASS application is can not access when set Internal URL

fallow hollow
#

@rose quest you need ssl certificates then only it would work.

#

you can use letsencrypt and integrate with HA

#

it's free and only downside is that you need to renew your certs every 3 months, which is alright.

fallow hollow
humble mirage
#

Because older versions don't have required features and/or bugs

#

Why not just use Docker though?

#

No need to build stuff, just pull an image and go

fallow hollow
#

Docker won't suffice my requirements. I've my own written iot-stack (dbus/cpp) which interacts closely with HA :/

humble mirage
#

So just use the API

#

That's what it exists for

fallow hollow
#

thanks. I will take a look at it.

#

@humble mirage is it possible to override requirements of a particular version of HA without downloading the source code?

pip install homeassistant==XXXX numpy==1.26.3-1

so that it picks system python package python-numpy==1.26.3.1?

humble mirage
#

No

humble scaffoldBOT
#

@fallow hollow I converted your message into a file since it's above 15 lines :+1:

πŸ“Ž message.txt
fallow hollow
#

:/

#

HA needs to be a bit relaxed about these two packages. One is cryptography and other one is numpy

humble mirage
#

No, no it doesn't

#

Versions are required so that HA runs, and that's that

#

Your choices are to use Docker and the API (as you should have been doing) or to move to proper hardware

rose quest
humble mirage
#

If you want SSL when remote and not when local then a proxy like NPM is the way

rose quest
#

but can not set Internal URL with HASS Application

humble mirage
#

Right... because you need to use https: all the time

#

That's because you added ssl_ to HA

rose quest
#

i tried install letsencrypt

#

but it can not start

@rose quest When using Discord's Reply feature it defaults to pinging the person you reply to, which can get frustrating for the target. Use Shift + click on the Reply option, or click @ ON to @ OFF to stop this - on the right side of the compose bar.

im trying to install HACS but apparently ive changed the username and dont have the correct one. Is there a way to find that?

grand pivot
#

That's a path.

steel flower
#

specifically for cd /home/{username}/docker/home-assistant

#

yeah but i need the username to run the command

grand pivot
#

That's your path

#

You would have created it

#

It's your device that you logged into somehow

#

How can you not know your username?

steel flower
#

maybe thats not my error then. its saying the file path does not exist i just wondered if the username had changed somehow

#

using the LS command i dont have a folder labeled " home assistant" I have
home-assistant.log home-assistant_v2.db-shm secrets.yaml
blueprints home-assistant.log.1 home-assistant_v2.db-wal tts
configuration.yaml home-assistant.log.fault scenes.yaml
deps home-assistant_v2.db scripts.yaml
would i want to change the command to /home-assistant_v2

humble mirage
#

That folder with configuration.yaml is your config golder

#

Also, did you actually use Docker?

steel flower
humble mirage
#

Then you should know where you mapped the config folder to

#

it's in your compose file

steel flower
#

yeah i mapped it to data/homeassistant

humble mirage
#

Then ... why the fuck were you looking for /home/{username}/docker/...?

steel flower
humble mirage
#

FFS

#

Following random guides requires you to fill in the gaps between your system and what they did

#

You should have just followed the HACS docs

#

Indeed, if you have a choice between the official docs and some rando's guide... don't pick the rando

steel flower
#

alright i followed the HACS guides instead. Ijust followed it from a link for installing the bambu labs integration

#

i now have HACS in my HA page but when i click it i dont see any options such as integrations or front end

raven forge
steel flower
#

yes

tender wren
#

You are seeing a search bar instead of menus for integrations, frontend and so on?

humble scaffoldBOT
#

Please use imgur or other image sharing web sites, and share the link here.

Image posting is blocked in most channels to discourage people from sharing text as images. Sharing text as images assumes that everybody sees the world as you do, which isn't the case. Some people are colour blind, or have visual impairment that means they can't make sense of an image of text.

steel flower
tender wren
#

You have enabled the experimental features during the install. That's nothing bad, just different and the near future of HACS

steel flower
#

okay yeah i definitely clicked that lol

#

is there a different way to get to the integrations menu?

tender wren
#

There is no integrations menu anymore. You can find everything in this list/searchbar

#

Another benefit are the dedicated update entities for HACS integrations, cards and so on. So you get the same notification as for other HA updates.

#

And you get access to the templates

steel flower
#

okay cool i found out how to add the custom repositories i was after lol thanks

if it isnt a hardware issue like overheating then i would restore from a known good backup

Hi, i don't know why but my HA won't update. It's been stuck on HA 2022 version for a while and whenever i update it just spins forever. Also whenever i try to make a backup it says it can't because HA is starting up, it says this after it has been running for hours and is fully started

Hey, im new to home assistant. I have the following problem:
when i run ha network info (in advanced shell with protetion mode off) my wlan0 interface is missing, only eth0 is shown.
when running nmcli dev status i see wlan0 is not managed by NetworkManager. So i run nmcli dev set wlan0 managed yes, and it is now managed by NetworkManager. I can then scan for networks with nmcli dev wifi list.
However, wlan0 is still not available in ha network info, and is once again unmanaged after a reboot (I run home assistant on a RPi 4).

Anyone knows any help? TIA

Hey, I'm stuck at waiting for cli and waiting for supervisor to startup

Hello, I have a Synology ds216j and I would like to install home assistant on it. Unfortunately, I dont think it supports Docker. Is there any solutions ?

humble mirage
#

Does it support VMs?

gusty parrot
#

From what i've seen I don't think so...

raven forge
#

You could run an outdated package like this: https://synocommunity.com/package/homeassistant
Or attempt to run core on your own with the outdated python package. Both are poor options in my opinion.
I'd recommend buying a (U)SFF or Mini PC to run your services and let the NAS be a NAS.

Hello my friends!
I am at my end wits: I want to install Home Assistant on my Raspberry Pi 3 with Raspberri Imager. I flashed the image with the Imager without any problems. I plugged my Raspberry Pi to my router and USB Power Source. When opening http://homeassistant.local:8123/ "Preparing Home Assistant" opens. But the preparation seems to be stuck. In the Details, no error message can be found but this one:
"[supervisor.host.sound] Can't update PulseAudio data: Failed to connect to pulseaudio server"
And the Preparation is stuck at this:
"[supervisor.docker.interface] Downloading docker image ghcr.io/home-assistant/aarch64-hassio-supervisor with tag 2024.01.1."

The starenge thing is, that I installed Home Assistant on this Raspberry Pi with the same SD Card 2 years ago without any problems. But today it does not work.

Has anybody an idea for solving this problem?

raven forge
#

How long has this been running for?

About 30 minutes

Nothing of concern in the logs

Which logs did you check?

Both general CORE and Supervisor

Installed in the VM (QEMU)

Leave it be, reboot HA, reboot VM?

#

I think it just got uncloged, since it went dark. Let's see if it reboots...

raven forge
#

Rebooting the VM likely can't hurt but I'm not convinded it will fix the issue.
I'd try running ha host logs --identifier hassio_supervisor --follow and then triggering an update again.
If there's still nothing i'd check the host logs too.

Would you agree?

When I do core updates in my test (I mention this because my database and entity list is tiny) HAOS VM it takes 1-3 minutes or so. I didn't time it but it's certainly not 30 minutes.

#

Hi all. I have HA running in a docker container (running on qnap) and am passing through /dev/ttyUSB0 to give it a usb zigbee radio. Can I pass a zwave radio through in the same fashion, or do I need to be running a second container specifically for zwave?

versed vapor
#

no you can pass through multiple devices to a single container

#

however you shouldnt use the port alias but the serial identifier of the device

odd fog
#

When I try to setup the zwave integration, it's asking for a url (ws://localhost:3000) ; the container isn't running anything on this port atm

brittle sail
#

zwave needs a zwave container for the integration to point to

#

the integration does nothing until you have a zwave container setup (such as zwave-js-ui)

#

also do what he said and change to the serial/by-id not ttyUSB0 or w/e

odd fog
#

gotcha. I'm running a second container for mosquitto mqtt, maybe I can combine it with that one

versed vapor
#

no this will be yet another container

odd fog

yeah qnap makes it tricky.. the usb devices don't show up in /dev/usb-serial or w/e the path

I'm planning on switching from HAOS to home assistant container, and also planning on using debian as the OS for my server. I'm hoping to run a few other services on the server too, does anyone have any wisdom regarding whether I'll be fine just using the ssh server debian installation or if I should go with a proper desktop instead?

twilit junco
#

I tried the container with Debian ssh before. But now I switched to haos since the container does not have HACS

tender wren
twilit junco
#

All right. I might get it confused with something else

grand pivot
#

With addons, probably

twilit junco
#

For sure back then there was a limitation for container.

twilit junco
#

Tbh I don’t even know the difference between add ons and integrations.

humble scaffoldBOT
#

#integrations-archived integrate Home Assistant with devices or services, or provide functionality within Home Assistant.

#add-ons-archived provide additional software or services, which an integration could possibility integrate with. Add-ons are for Home Assistant OS and Supervised only, other install methods can install software other ways.

grand pivot
twilit junco
#

So an add-on is an 3rd party integration?

tender wren
#

No. ADDitional software

#

A 3rd party integration is still an integration

twilit junco
#

Bring additional to what?

grand pivot
tender wren
#

For example a reverse proxy additional to HA

#

Or a MQTT broker

#

To connect such software with HA, an integration is used

twilit junco
#

So addons are more like gadgets? Not directly related to integrating devices to HA?

tender wren
#

Helping and/or supporting independent software

grand pivot
#

Now you've introduced yet another term

twilit junco
#

I see. Might be a good idea if it’s named as extensions or plugins. Like for a browser. Then i think I can understand better

#

Because when you say add on people have to think it’s added to what

waxen pond
#

i think of them as 'services', since rather than extending home assistant configuration they actually run as a separate services

#

and i agree add-ons isn't a very helpful name

#

also: dumb question and probably not very home assistant related: if i install ssh server debian, will i still be able to access the shell prompt through keyboard + mouse + monitor on the server? mainly just worried in case i somehow lose ability to connect via ssh for whatever reason

tender wren
#

If you are using a usual Debian the CLI via keyboard and monitor is still available, even with SSH configured. That's independent.

I'm finding it very difficult to determine how to boot the HAOS installer from a USB stick such that it installs onto the internal drive of the machine. When I flash the HAOS image to a USB stick and boot it, I end up with HAOS running off of the USB and with the HAOS shell being substantially limited in functionality, I do not know how to run fdisk and dd to replicate the USB contents to the main internal drive.

raven forge
#

There is no installer. Flashing is installing it. Limited how? If you mean the ha prompt you can enter login to get to a shell but HAOS is not a general purpose OS.

grand pivot
#

The installation instructions explain how to flash HAOS onto the target device.

karmic spruce
#

When flashing the target disk requires booting via USB to a separate OS first, there aren't any instructions for that. For example, Debian has an installer that boots via USB stick and then lets you flash the internal drive. It would be nice if there was a simple set of instructions to perform the same thing for HAOS. What I am having to do is to boot via Debian Live and manually flash the main disk myself and then I need to make sure I have the MBR set correctly and stuff -- just inherently risky considering I'm also wiping out the OS currently installed on the internal disk

raven forge
#

Or you can virtualize HAOS but I'm not sure it would be the right thing for you.

karmic spruce
#

I've tried virtualization and it was problematic for me

raven forge
#

How?

karmic spruce
#

You're saying install something like Ubuntu and then install Docker and run HA like that?

#

I've installed and run HA about 4-5x using that method and it always seems to get out of sync and become problematic for me

#

I don't remember specifically why -- I just know the raw HAOS is better

raven forge
#

No. If you want to virtualize you can install proxmox VE and create a HAOS VM.

karmic spruce
#

That sounds like too much work πŸ™‚

#

and then I would discover that there are issues accessing the GPU or something

raven forge
#

Then follow the official docs which I linked.

karmic spruce

Hey does a HA restore just do HA stuff, or add ons too like NGINX manger that I installed via HA? (RaspPi install)

grand pivot
#

If you restore a complete backup, it's everything

alpine relic
#

Excellent, thanks

grand pivot
#

It will show you when you try to restore it

alpine relic
#

oh? all i saw was option for quick or complete restore? does the trick tho

grand pivot
#

As I recall, it shows you what's in it and lets you restore what you want. I don't run HAOS anymore, though

raven forge
#

That's where a HAOS VM comes in handy.

broken mirage
#

why are addons only available with supervised?

tender wren
#

(And HAOS) Because they are Containers with additional information for the Supervisor how to run and how interact with HA (eg ingress)

broken mirage
#

but why cant the docker socket be exposed into the core container?

#

that would allow core to boot up additional containers

tender wren
#

Because the Supervisor manages all necessary containers in HAOS and messing with containers might break the system. If you want additonal containers, run the container install and manage them yourself. In that case the add-ons' software have to be setup by hand as well.

broken mirage
#

is there any guide on how to integrate these additonal containers by hand?

#

because i would very much do that by hand instead of using supervised

I have what I am sure is dumb question... πŸ™‚ I have an existing homekit setup with some accessories installed, alexa, google, appletv and half a dozen or so matter light bulbs already in homekit.

my question is I have 6 or so mater light bulbs that are already working in homekit, and I couldn't figure out how to get them into homekit even after adding the matter plugin? So is their a secret or what. I don't really feel like resetting all the lightbulbs and such...

Hello. First time user here. I have a Rpi 3 and downloaded and installed the image. I can reach the HA web page, but I get a bunch of errors that seem to indicate I cant download from github. Restarting the system just brings that page back up. Can I restart the process or do I need to reflash the card?

as an example

You could try rebooting it or running ha supervisor repair via keyboard and monitor. Sometimes it also fixes itself after some time.
This error is often caused by DNS issues. You can check by running ha supervisor logs and ha host logs.

Lost my homeassistant and don't know how. It was working yesterday morning. yesterday night it was not. I run it on a raspberry pi with 64GB SD card. Not a complicated setup. Its been working well in this fashion for at least a year (i added a deconz stick about six months ago, last zigbee device I added was at least a month ago.) Anyway, When i have the SD card with HA on it, it does nothing. Doesn't seem to boot, doesn't show on the network, the red light is on, the network lights are on. I put a different card in with Rasperry OS on it and it works fine. Its on the network, I can ssh to it and it displays a desktop via HDMI. I flashed a new card with HA on it and it does nothing. I've plugged an HDMI cable into it and there is nothing on the "screen." I have the CanaKit (https://www.canakit.com/raspberry-pi-4-starter-max-kit.html) . Any suggestions would be great. Thank You

humble mirage
#

You plug the monitor in before you apply power?

marsh pike
#

I did

humble mirage
#

Then it's either a problem with power (HAOS seems to be power hungry) or the SD card is dead, or the flash isn't working

#

Try unplugging all USB devices

done, everything is unplugged...just network cable

5.1v 3.5A from canakit?

raw tide
#

I am having issues with my port forwarding on my router to my home assistant install, which is a UTM vm on a m2 mac mini. My network setup is a little weird, so I have to forward ports on my modem and my router basically, but everything should be set up to forward 8123 and 443 on both routers. canyouseeme.org is saying that the two ports are both not open and giving a connection refused error. I run a minecraft server also, and the port forwards are identical but that one works, so I am just confused and probably did something wrong

#

I can send screenshots of my network settings also

humble mirage
#

What's the first two sets of numbers for your modem's WAN IP, as shown in the modem's pages

raw tide
#

what, like 192.168?

#

or like public ip

#

for my network setup, we have a modem/router combo from centurylink, and we have deco routers acting as access points for the network, so technically the router is still on, its just got wifi disabled

humble mirage
#

The WAN IP

#

That's what it'll be called

raw tide
#

I found the WAN mac address but I dont see an ip

#

I know the router access ip is 192.168.0.1

#

and the deco routers is 192.168.68.1

humble mirage
#

The WAN IP matters as your ISP may be doing CGNAT or other silly things

#

That's why you can't just Google it and tell us what Google/some other site says

raw tide
#

yeah no centurylink is not doing cgnat

#

and other port forwards work with other services, just not the ones for HA

Then it's time to check what's different about the HA port forward

raw tide
#

sorry this centurylink router is ass

#

hard to find anything

#

the port forwards are literally identical with the 25565 one and the 8123 one on both routers, and theyre to the same computer so it makes even less sense

#

would I have to do something on the computer side? I didn't think I had the mac firewall settings on or anything

humble mirage
#

Connect to the "outer" router and check to see if you can connect to HA using the WAN IP (and port 8123) of the "inner" router

raw tide
#

its just saying that it can not access the server or that it is an invalid ip address depending on if I do http or https

humble mirage
#

Then your problem is (at least in part) with that "inner" port forward

raw tide
#

the video I am following for like duckdns and stuff mentioned forwarding 443 to 8123 or something, but that just isnt an option for the "inner" router

#

could that be something to do with it?

#

also if I do the "outer" routers internal ip created by the "inner" one, it sits there and loads for a while and gives a "not responding" error, which is the same thing that homeassistant.local and my duckdns does, so that seems like a good sign

humble mirage
#

When connected to the outer router none of the IPs or hostnames for the "inner" network will work

raw tide
#

ah ok

humble mirage
#

That's why I wrote exactly what I did:

Connect to the "outer" router and check to see if you can connect to HA using the WAN IP (and port 8123) of the "inner" router

#

Hopefully there's a really good reason why you've got this painful setup

raw tide
#

the centurylink router is awful lol

#

and its a goofy 2 dsl line or something so we cant get rid of it, so we had to get past it

#

its a massive pain for stuff like this though

#

is there a way I can disable the dns stuff from the HA vm terminal so I can access it again?

#

like a command or smthn

humble mirage
#

"dns stuff"?

raw tide
#

I meant duckdns and the ssl config I did before restarting it

humble mirage
#

Just use https://now

#

https://homeassistant.local:8123/

raw tide
#

that one doesn't work still, it says its not responding. I had these issues in the past trying to set up HA and I know I fixed em somehow but I forget how

humble mirage
#

Well, if both http:// and https:// to the LAN IP aren't working then HA isn't running

I'm trying to change my installation to a new computer with a larger drive.

#

I am running HAOS
I'm following the guide under on boarding.
When it asks if I want to restore, I point it to the backup file on my other computer, but the "Restore a Backup" window comes up but nothing happens. It has been over an hour now. I dont know if it is not downloading the file or what. How can I procede?

humble mirage
#

When you say on my other computer ... what do you mean?

topaz pecan
#

A computer on my network. It finds it fine but it doesn't seem to be downloading the file

humble mirage
#

Didn't know they added the ability to do that

#

The docs say you have to upload the backup

topaz pecan
#

Thats what Im trying to do. I click on upload the backup, the file explorer comes up, I choose the file, and then the Restore a Backup windows comes up with the "working" line crossing. Been like that for over an our. It also says to refresh periodically but all that does is take me back to the start.

humble mirage
#

How big is the backup?

topaz pecan
#

15 megs

#

15,671,650

#

If I were to complete the initial setup and then do a restore, will it work properly with the new hardware?

Is anyone running home assistant behind an apache proxy in a docker container? I am having issues logging into home assistant. I keep getting a 400 bad request in the logs. I suspect after reading that it is a websocket issue with the login process.

I followed the steps someone layed out in this issue: https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues/24750 but to no success. Has anyone successful set up HA with a similar setup?

tender wren
#

Have you configured HA to accept requests from a reverse proxy?

obtuse sparrow
#

In the configuration.yaml file. Is there another place?

tender wren
#

Correct. The http section. You need to enable x_forwarded_for and add the IP/range of the trusted proxy/proxies

# 
http:
  use_x_forwarded_for: true
  trusted_proxies:
    - 10.0.0.200      # Add the IP address of the proxy server
    - 172.30.33.0/24  # You may also provide the subnet mask
obtuse sparrow
#

That is what I have, I needed that to get to the login screen of HA. But trying to login still doesn't work with that

tender wren
#

Is the user trying to login allowed to do it from an external network and not limited to the local network?

obtuse sparrow
#

My user is allowed to login from any network

raven forge
tender wren
#

Is the reverse proxy configured to support websocket?

obtuse sparrow

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Upgrade} =websocket
RewriteRule /(.) ws://ha.ip.address:8123/$1 [P,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Upgrade} !=websocket

I’m just getting started with HAOS & an Intel Nuc. I made the mistake of using etcher to flash the image onto a USB thinking it would be an installer like Ubuntu Live. Is the β€œGeneric x86-64” release image trying to keep things β€œvery generic” for a reason or is there an easier path to getting this installed on the drive in the Nuc?

#

It initially booted to the HAOS CLI running off the USB which at least shows it was working. Then I tried booting from an Ubuntu Live USB and β€œrestoring” the drive in the Intel Nuc with the HAOS image. This β€œworks” but seems to put me face to face with something called GRUB.

#

From what I gather GRUB is a secondary bootloader which obviously needs to be configured but it is pretty intimidating (maybe for good reason to keep free from poking fingers)

Hello, I successfully installed HAOS-11.5 on a KVM, however today I can't load HA on the browser at http://homeassistant.local:8123/ I checked the VMM-4.0.0 hypervisor and HAOS-11.5 is Shutoff. I Start HAOS-11.5 and receive error: Cannot access storage file '/home/linuxmint/Downloads/haos_ova-11.5.qcow2' (as uid:64055,gid:109): No such file or directory. Maybe I accidentally deleted a file in ~/Downloads? Is there a way to install HAOS-11.5 on the hypervisor so the file is not sitting in ~/Downloads but somewhere safer?

But I'm running to the problem that after reboot and login the browser jumps to homeassistant.local:8123/lovelace and the page says "Loading data" with a nice cricle spinning around. Is there any tipp that prevents me to restore my backup and go back to the version 2023.07.02?? 😒

homeassistant.loader.IntegrationNotFound: Integration 'homematicip_local' not found.

#

For your understanding: I have 2 HAOS servers running that are connected via the HACS integration Remote Home Assistant. On the client HAOS there is the integration homematicip_local running (and working fine). The main HAOS server (where I did the update) is getting this error.

#

I explain this due to the fact that on the main server I see all the updates including theses pending on the client server.

#

And according to Murphy's law, I did click on the update to be installed on the main server.

#

My question is: How can I remove this integration on the main server? I found nothing in the config files.

Hello, I've discovered a curious install issue where haos_ova-11.5.qcow2 installs home assistant on my hypervisor VMM 4.0.0 in ~/Downloads, rather than the KVM default /var/lib/libvirt/images. How can I make HomeAssistant install to the default with my other KVMs?

humble mirage
#

Sounds like you need to copy it there, rather than running it from there

exotic shuttle
#

Would be good if I could just move the installed haos_ova-11.5.qcow2 from ~/Downloads to /var/lib/libvirt/manager.

#

...or maybe some type of Home Assistant or KVM backup, to restore in the correct path?

humble mirage
#

Well, HA knows nothing about that

#

You're 100% in the hands of your VM manager there

exotic shuttle
humble mirage
#

To be very clear, HA(OS) has no say about what your VM manager does

#

No VM does

#

At best they know they're in a VM (with hardware detection) and, with the right drivers, can talk a bit with the VM manager

Hello, I have a question. I installed HA via Docker and everything worked great, but I can't install any addons... I think I have the core version. Can I also install a Full HA version in Docker?
HAOS or HA Supervised?

No, you can't

But add-ons are just software running in a container, there's nothing you can't do yourself

If you want add-ons then dedicate the host to HA with HAOS, or run HAOS in a VM

hi everyone.. I'm coming here after full day of battling with starting up my 6yo instance of HA that suddenly stopped working :(((

could you please try and help?
i am currently cloning my existing VM into a new one to see if it will pick up

this is the error I get:

Error returned from Supervisor: System is not ready with state: setup

this has all started after swtiching my adguard raspi off for like 5 mins...

empty bloom
#

turn the adguard pi back on

#

restart your router

#

then restart HA

#

if you have your router pointing at the adguard pi to handle dns, then its going to give you issues when you turn that off

#

you'll see those issues all across your network too

#

not just HA

#

this is assuming you followed a guide to setup adguard

silent night
#

@empty bloom so this was running fine for months/years. router was setup to adguard DNS. HA was set up to router IP. I understand how one break another. what I don't understand is - how could this break my whole setup.

#

I am battling whole day today - literally - to get this fixed.

empty bloom
#

because, if HA doesn't have a dns server it does odd things

silent night
#

HA starts forever. most services don't work. once startup (happened once since) - it keeps popping up with disconnected message.

empty bloom
#

poorly configured dns can take down everything that HA tries to talk to

#

especially if you don't use static ips and you use hostnames for everything or things are going through mdns. It also depends on how you set up adguard as the dns server for your router

#

and it depends on your router

silent night
#

i understand this - but as said - DNS downtime was like 5mins - then back online - this was around noon - now its like 8 hours later and still massive breakdown :/

empty bloom
#

restart if the server is back up

silent night
#

i use IPs every where

#

I did restart several times.

empty bloom
#

reboot?

silent night
#

yep even powercycle proxmox machine and unifi router

empty bloom
#

supervisor and the internal dns server for HA need to restart, so reboot is what I meant

silent night
#

in CLI: supervisor restart - done this, dns restart - done this too

#

I understand the reasoning for system not working right with bad DNS - but this is something else :/

empty bloom
#

no, the system HA runs on needs to restart, unless you know how to restart all the small containers that HAOS is running that are 'hidden'

#

and if this is something else, then you'll need to provide logs

#

otherwise it's a guessing game

#

but whenever adguard is involved, adguard needs to be running before HA can start.

silent night
#

proxmox machine? this was restarted many times already

#

I'll try to get logs

silent night
empty bloom
#

after you make that change you need to reboot HA

silent night
#

ive got 10% left of cloning - ill try running clone

#

if anything - I've got backup but want to avoid this as much as i can

silent night
silent night
#

@empty bloom could you please have a look if this is correct?:

ha > dns info
fallback: false
host: 172.30.32.3
11mmr: true
locals:
-dns://192.168.1.1
mdns: true
servers:
dns://192.168.1.1
dns://192.168.1.1
update_available: false
version: 2023.06.2
_version_latest: 2023.06.2

empty bloom
#

looks fine

#

it's odd that you have duplicate servers

silent night
#

ive added two servers just a moment ago as one was reading local ip, second was 1.1.1.1

#

i am restarting HA from dev tools right now - still takes forever to load up and still disconnects when in lovelace

silent night
#

@empty bloom - could you please point me at which logs to get? supervisor, core or others?

empty bloom
#

Supervisor logs

silent night
#

on it

empty bloom
#

Or HA logs

#

Both may help.

silent night
#

on the CORE log - there is a lot of warnings for HA companion app widgets - still sifting throught this

empty bloom
#

Looks like you have some cloud flare issues

silent night
#

this has never cought my eye - and to be fair - cloudflare works like a charm

silent night
#

im sorry- I am unable to keep upright anymore and will have to come back to this tomorrow :/

#

thank you @petro for your support!

Corrupted HAOS installs

#

Little strange thing. I have raspberry pi 3b with home assistant os 11.5. I received another modem from my internet provider and now also a different external IP. All equipment works normally, port forwarding is also no problem. After the new modem has been switched on, the home assistant no longer has a connection outside. There is no way I can ping or traceroute to cloudflare.com. If I do it via my phone or PC, no problem. But home assistant has no internet.

#

I have changed it to dhcp. That was not helping. Then i changed it back to static ip. Nothing is working.
ipv6 is disabled.

humble mirage
#

Can you ping 8.8.8.8?

sonic juniper
#

no only inside ip address

#

traceroute getting de gateway 192.168.1.1 and then only * * * *

#

tough latch
#

hi folks. In the recent days I had HA randomly restart on me, without any apparent reason. HA is running in a HAOS setup on a VM, so I can exclude power or SD card issues

#

I think this started happening when I upgraded to 2024.2 and HAOS 11.5. I already rolled back HAOS to 11.4 yesterday, and that didn't seem to fix anything

#

well, there it goes again, that can't have been up for more than 10 minutes this time

humble mirage
#

Is it the whole VM, or just the HA Core container?

tough latch
#

I think it's just the core container

#

but good point, let me check

#

so opening the terminal uptime gives me ~ 22 h of uptime, which about works out to when I rebooted everything last night in attempt to see if that would fix things

#

but HA via the "uptime" integration reports an uptime of four minutes only

#

oh, and there it goes again

humble mirage
#

Ok, so the container is restarting, which helps narrow it down

#

What custom integrations do you have?

tough latch
#

a bunch, I can get you a list once the UI is back

humble mirage
#

Start by starting HA in safe mode

#

If it stops crashing the problem is in one of those

tough latch
#

at some point yesterday it did stop crashing, and I guess I had ~ 20 h of uptime before things started happening again right now

#

but first I need to get the kid back to bed

grand pivot
#

I wouldn't want to go to bed at 11AM either

tough latch
#

Unfortunately for her it's a tad later here

#

Ok, so there are three integrations not running in safe mode. Hacs, ui-lovelace-minimalist, and an integration tracking our energy consumption using an api with the national energy office. I trust the latter the least

humble mirage
#

HACS should be fine, it's probably in most HA installs

tough latch
#

Yeah, I'm also pretty convinced that if that was broken a heck of a lot more people would be complaining

#

Ok, let's see if things stay stable just with hacs

#

hm, I guess the circadian lighting integration is also custom, and doesn't show up on the integration page

tender wren
#

The built-in integration is called Flux. It is quite limited in function.
Circadian Lighting or Adaptive Lighting on HACS are more powerful

tough latch
#

yeah, I'm using the circadian lighting integration from HACS, I'm pretty happy with it

#

provided I don't let it futz with the brightness πŸ™‚

tough latch
#

40 minutes without crash, looking good so far. I'll reenable the minimalist UI thing and see how that goes

Hi guys, I'm new to homeassistant and I'm experiencing issues accessing my server at the normal address http://homeassistant.local:8123/ , it's giving me ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED

My setup: HA running as a VM on an unraid server

I CAN access the VNC console for the VM and it ostensibly seems to be running fine

I've tried restarting the VM, and also trying to access HA at <server IP>:8123 and <server name>:8123 and even tried rebooting the entire server, no dice!

I've been in this situation for a few days now but before that it seemeed to be working ok.

Please let me know if there is any other info I can provide, I'd like to get this running without starting fresh since I already configured zigbee2mqtt!

My guess is that it has been forgotten.

I have Home Assistant OS running in a VM (KVM). I want to move this over to its own physical machine. Is my best course of action to figure out some way to get the VM's disk image onto a physical disk or is there some kind of backup and restore method that is known to work well? The major consideration is that I have a big Zigbee mesh that I do not want to have to rebuild from scratch.

Was 2024.2.3 pulled? I don't see the release yet this morning.

Hasn't been approved for release yet

Looks like a bug was found post-build so they've paused things while that's addressed

Hello i have a problem with installation on raspberry pi 5. When i try to configure on website then there is an error that says 'Updater.fetch_data' blocked from execution, no supervisor internet connection and I don't know what that means

humble mirage
#

Are you using Home Assistant OS?

Do you have a network cable plugged in?

pure flame
#

1.Yes
2.Yes

humble mirage
#

What version of HAOS are you using?

#

11.5

#

I thought pi5's weren't supported yet?

pure flame
#

I downloaded it on raspberry pi imager

empty bloom
#

Right, but HA hasn't released anything for a pi5 yet

tender wren
#

Did you use the image for RPi4 from the imager?

humble mirage
#

There are Pi5 images, but they're not stable yet

pure flame
#

Oh

oh, okay thank for help

Is the only way to update/upgrade HA (core/supervisor/os) to a specific version is via the terminal/command line? ex: ha core update --version xyz
I'm also curious how you can update an add-on to a specific version--if I don't want to go to the latest just yet?

tender wren
#

Yes and you cannot

harsh moat
#

Bummer. Hopefully there's already a feature request in to be able to both of these things--and from the webui.

humble scaffoldBOT
#

If you have a feature request for the frontend you can open one here, for Home Assistant itself please post on the forum. All other feature requests should be made to the developer of that custom card/component.

so i've got a bit of an issue: a while back my Pi3 went kaput, and was recently able to replace it with a pi4. is there some way i can recover my install without having to get another pi3?

brazen herald
#

Step 0 is to avoid having this problem again: make sure you set up a backup that gets the files off the device.
Step 2 is to try and read the files from the SD card on the Pi 3, if you can. If the card is corrupt this will likely be difficult or perhaps impossible.

Retrieve backup from SD card

My Rasperry 3b+ just went south and I am planning to replace with a 4b. I assume HA will not run on the 4 by just swapping the SD from the 3, so is there anyway I can retrieve the config and/or most recent backup from the old SD card? I do have an external backup available so not completely on scratch, however I must admit it might be a couple ...

is it the .tar files in supervisor/backup im looking for?

Tried to boot from the usb with Ubuntu and currently stuck on a gnu grub screen

Show what you see.

I finally did get it

#

Initially flashed the image using Rufus and tried again with the same method 2-3 times, always resulting in the same gnu grub screen.

#

Flashed the image using Balena Etcher and was up and running in about 15 minutes

In safe mode and normal mode Home Assistant crashes for me. Someone has posted a fault log showing a python segmentation fault. I don't see anything in my normal home assistant logs. I had to revert during the week but I'll try and see if my fault log has the same segmentation fault over the weekend.

Maybe caused by the python bump?

the python bump happened between 2024.1.x to 2024.2.0

delicate sequoia
#

Yeah. Upgrading from 2024.1 to 2024.2 and my HA keeps restarting. Before I rolled back it was under every 8 mins at least 7 restarts.

#

I've had to restore a 2024.1.x back up

empty bloom
#

Right, so that means your assumption about the python version is not correct

#

er wait, did you edit your versions?

delicate sequoia
#

No

empty bloom

Interesting good point...I went straight to 2024.2.2 from 2024.1.x. I'll see if I can go to 2024.2.1

hi guys, I just booted my rbpi with home assistant and I'm stuck in the console that says this: "[WARN] Home Assistant CLI is not running! Jump into emergency console…". What should I do?

raven forge
#

Did you freshly install it or is this a existing installation?

spiral stag
#

fresh

raven forge
#

In that case I'd recommend re-flashing it rather than wasting time with CLI commands. Perhaps with another SD Card if you use one. It's possible it fixes itself if you reboot it so I'd try that first. If you still want to check I'd start with systemctl status docker.service.

I am new with home assistant Green. …. I setup my account but unfortunately I forget it … is that anyway to reset and start from the beginning

tender wren
placid sage
#

I don’t have any user data … so I could go to reset it … do I need the SD card or if I don’t have any user data to be backup I don’t need the SDcard ?
I am asking that because I am on my vacation home and I don’t an SD tonight πŸ™‚
Many many thanks

tender wren
#

The reset requires a MicroSD

placid sage
#

What capacity it should be ?

tender wren
#

You do not remember the username you chose?

placid sage
#

The username should be my email address or it’s just a name

tender wren
#

It doesn't have to be big. It is just performing the reset program

#

If you enter your name during the onboarding, it suggests the first name in lower letters as username

placid sage
#

I think I remember the username …

Currently I'm running Home Assistant as a docker container with python-matter-server as another container for matter support. I'd like to migrate my setup to a HAOS install. If the machine running the HAOS install has a different IP than before, are there any special things I need to do when I export/import my setup?

Hey all. Having a bit of a nightmare getting haos on a system of mine. I've followed the instructions to the letter. I used the Ubuntu method initially I tried using the etcher tool, which kept crashing. It now refuses to boot into ha. I get these following screens.

#

Ok, I can't send images here. But I get the onboard efi bios command line come up

sharp cipher
#

Hey! I was wondering. If I install home assistant into a VM, is it possible to install the add-ons? Since now that would mean layered virtualization. Does that work? Or do I need to use a container instead of a fully isolated VM? (Thinking of proxmox)

tired salmon
#

And then when I go into the bios to mess about with it. I get a choice of android-ia or uefi:built-in efi shell.

Please use imgur or other image sharing web sites, and share the link here.

Image posting is blocked in most channels to discourage people from sharing text as images. Sharing text as images assumes that everybody sees the world as you do, which isn't the case. Some people are colour blind, or have visual impairment that means they can't make sense of an image of text.

While ubuntu is booted (via UEFI) please run lsblk -o+LABEL,FSTYPE,MODEL in a terminal so we can see if it was flashed properly at all.

Exactly as you've put it there?

Comma and all?

raven forge

Yup.

Ok just booting now

raven forge

These are just some options so it also shows the partition label (hassos-data), file system type (ext4) and the disk model. Just useful to know and helps with identification.

Hey, I'm happy to see if I've done anything wrong mate, I'm greatful for the pointers

I entered it

You might have to enter sudo -i to switch to root first. I can tell you more if I see the CLI.

It's more about the word wrapping. I have real hard time with it. That looks okay though. At least the partitions are all there.

You can try the command from the note I mentioned earlier. Replace /dev/<drivename> with /dev/mmcblk0.

I've just put that in

Want to see the results?

In theory it should now show up when you run efibootmgr and in the UEFI as boot option.

Or shall I just reset the pc now and go another round?
