Raspberry pi to boot palera1n iphone 7 running ios 15.6

[paper hemlock]

ok so could i use a raspberry pi zero w connected to the phone with a micro usb to lightning adapter running the palera1n script be used to boot a phone
So if i had it run the script on boot, beep when its ready for the phone, beep for the first dfu input beep for the second (letting go of the side button) then beep for done, that would work right?

Could the phone itself also power the raspberry pi or do i need a seperate power source for the pi?

@paper hemlock thanks for creating a new thread!

i think its possible

[haughty seal]

possible but the pi needs a separate power source and you would have to write something to do this

you're not the first to ask about running palera1n on a raspberry pi. in palera1n's current state, this is not possible. palera1n runs other binaries that are compiled for x86_64 only. you would have to create your own implementation of palera1n or compile everything used for it for arm

a pi probably doesn't have enough resources for kvm either so you can't just virtualize a 64 bit machine either

ok ill compile it for arm do i need to change anything or just compile it

[winter bison]

“it”?
there’s more than one thing to compile

[paper hemlock]

it as in everything i needed to compile

and you dont need a vm to run x86_64 on arm

it takes more power yes

but still not as much as a vm

and i cant imagine this uses that much power

[winter bison]

wasn’t talking about power usage, i meant overhead

[paper hemlock]

yes i meant power as in computational power

[winter bison]

the alternative is a container

which has similar issues

[paper hemlock]

no

you can translate the instructions in real time to arm

slower

emulation
