I have a hardware resource of about 256MB DDR memory, CPU frequency 1GHz, storage 32GB board, it runs an embedded Linux system, now can I install HomeAssistant? Also, I would like to know what the minimum hardware configuration for installing HomeAssistant is officially recommended. Thank you for your discussions and answers. ...
#Lowest device requirements for installing Home Assisant ? 256MB DDR memory is OK ？

no
i wouldnt recomend below 4gb of ram, you can probably run at 2gb but you may have some issues.
you might be able to get it running at 1gb of ram but you will be sad. i really dont think you would be able to get it running on anything less

@inner osprey According to what you know, what is the minimum hardware configuration recommended by the community to install Home Assistant? It seems that we did not find any instructions in the official repository https://github.com/home-assistant/core.

installation documentation can be found here - https://www.home-assistant.io/installation/

Thanks for @inner osprey As far as we know, there are currently four versions of Home Assistant, namely OS (operating system), Container (container), Core (core) and Supervised (that is, the previous HassIO, integrated image). Is it that if we only install the Core part, it can save some memory consumption, for example, it is possible to achieve 256MB to support the operation of Home Assistant.

its hard to say, maybe it might be possible to get a core install running. but honestly i don't think it would function at any reasonable level and the swapping would destroy your storage
whats your goal here? why are you trying to run it on such limited hardware?

The main thing is that our device is already an off-the-shelf configuration (256MB DDR), and if we add additional memory requirements in order to run HomeAssistant, the cost of the device may not be able to bear it.

i think that you need to rethink your strategy, realistically your device is not going to be able to run it
something like the green - https://www.home-assistant.io/green/
is a great off the shelf low power option

Another question, according to my understanding, HomeAssistant is running on top of the Python environment, so what is the minimum Python version it depends on? I would like to speculate on how much RAM resources are required to install this Python environment, because my current device environment is an embedded Linux system that does not support Python. ...
