#Really struggling can’t get this docker

HAOS uses docker and manages it for you. All add-ons are other docker containers. HA is in its own docker container.
If you have issues configuring a plain docker installation that you manage yourself, then you might want to just try HAOS instead.
You can always switch to a more manual installation method down the line.
I think I like the idea of using my raspberry for other stuff outside of HA, so I wanted to see if there’s a way to load it with HA after the raspberry OS
No one is gonna write you a step by step guide here. There's like 30000 docker guides online already.
If you tell us where you're stuck we're happy to help though.
I've heard this for a long time and while there are differing opinions I don't fall on the side of "i need my pi to do other things". It's good as something to monitor 3d printing. It's good as a home automation hub. It's good as a NAS. It's good as a robot car kit. It's not good as a robot car kit that monitors your 3d printer, manages your network and serves up media to your tvs, blocks ads, grabs nzbs or torrents, and serves up family photos off of a 16TB storage drive while automating your home. Especially off an SD. They aren't as easy to find now, but my suggestion would normally be: grab another pi for the other thing. It just doesn't have the resources or the throughput to be used as a desktop replacement
That’s fair enough thanks
So basically I am running the docker install and home assistant. It’s shooting out the message ‘ docker: invalid reference format
I followed step by step everything as part of the install using a YouTube vid
Show the command that you used that triggered this output
docker run -d
--name homeassistant
--privileged
--restart=unless-stopped
-e TZ=MY_TIME_ZONE
-v /PATH_TO_YOUR_CONFIG:/config
--network=host
ghcr.io/home-assistant/home-assistant:stable
It was this and I changed the time zone to my Europe/London
And then changed the path to /home
I can't judge your command if you don't give me the exact one that you use.
I also suggest you use docker compose and the official instructions: https://www.home-assistant.io/installation/alternative/#docker-compose
Ok fair, sorry I closed it so don’t have the exact one
