When trying this with Bionic with the following command line: git pull ; time default_base_dist="bionic" base_dist=bionic ./build-image This is what I get. It successfully downloads the rpi3 image then falls over . Successfully tagged docker-rpi4-imagebuilder-v4:18.04 "docker-rpi4-ima...

Can you post the recipe or a lin kto the image file. Is this 18.04 based? I am looking for a 18.04 LTS image that works with the 4GB Pi 4B. C...

This is great but is only 1GB is there an updated version that does not suffer from the 1gb problem and can see 3072 + working USB ports?

I have to say I was very excited to see this post. My two favourite things, raspberry pi and Ubuntu. However I cannot get the image to complete a first boot. All looks good until it gets to installing new bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dtb then it hangs and does nothing. I left it for a good half an hour JIC it ne...

It did install with 128M however it did not create the pi user as per the config-installer.txt

username=pi
userpw=raspberry
user_is_admin=1

Any advice? bootsize=+50M # /boot partition size as given to fdisk Pretty sure that is your problem. It was increased to +128M for a reason General tip: only specify the parameters you want different from the defaults Thanks, I missed the change in the config file and used an old config-installer.t...

Used latest 1.7 version sdcard checks out fine with gparted. Just loops round and round failing each time.

Hi I tried downloading the image file and burning to a sdcard. I used 2 different sdcards both known good. There are errors on the image that stop booting. Maybe something is amiss with the build.

Tried the last 3 days images.

Hi,

I was wondering if this driver can be used for a Rpi B+ Rpi 2 Jessie based Mate desktop system. For general HW Accelerated graphics on applications such as OpenCPN?

Many thanks
Spart

sparticle

it would be great to have a 'Install Default pi User" option in the installer-config.txt file and have a pi user created as the default user added to sudoers and added to all the usual groups and disable root login etc. Some of that is being worked on in the 1.1 branch (https://github.com/debi...

My objective is to start from a minimal Pi B+ 2 Jessie system and build up from there. There is a workaround for that, but you would need a Pi B/B+ 1 (which you seem to have): Install the minimum jessie system on a B/B+ 1 using the installer Install and run rpi-update to get the firmware/kernel nee...

sparticle

OK, many thanks for this. It seems a bit crazy to release the B+ 2 and not have a native kernel that supports it from the RPIF with Raspian.

I will give it a shot and post back results.

Cheers

sparticle

Sorry a bit confused. I have used the installer to install on a number of B & B+ devices. Are you saying that if I am installing on a B/B+ device I can simply change the installer-config.txt release=wheezy line to jessie and it will install a minimal or whatever I choos jessie installation? But ...

sparticle

Ok thanks.

I could install a minimal wheezy system then add the jessie repo and upgrade though right?

Cheers
Spart

sparticle

I have used this script before with great success to install minimal B+ devices and posted here on other issues.

Can I use this installer to install a minimal Jessie install on B+ and Pi 2 ?
What changes would I need to make to the configs ?

Cheers
Spart

That's great many thanks. Like black magic to me

Just wanted to say many thanks for this post, as I had been banging my head trying to get Jessie to boot to the command prompt.

Do you happen to know the reverse command to get it to boot the desktop automatically after disabling it with:

sudo systemctl set-default multi-user.target

Cheers
Spart

sparticle

Did you find an answer to this problem. I am trying to get my Raspbian Jessie install to boot to the command line and start the desktop when I want using startx.

Cheers
Spart

sparticle

That's great news I will watch out for a new version. Do you thin k I will need to start again or can I install over my existing system?

Spart

First I wanted to say thanks for a great job with this installer. I just installed my B+ 512mb sdcard 8GB USB and it worked perfectly with my additional packages installed and static IP etc. that i configured in the installer-config.txt file. Is it possible to add options to the installer-config.txt...

sparticle

Just my 2penneth. I had cause to do this on my new B+ I just wanted to mess around and wanted the latest and greatest raspbian but minimal. I used https://github.com/debian-pi/raspbian-ua-netinst The whole process was simple and fast. After writing the 33mb image to my 512mb sdcard I created a insta...

Forgive me for butting in to this thread. I am looking to use the Rpi as a Marine Navigation computer. The only thing holding it back is lack of hardware accelerated graphics to make it useable. I may have misunderstood (newbie) but would the driver that is being developed provide the Rpi with nativ...

Thank you for the reply's but not very helpful I'm afraid. As I said, python seems to be installed fine, as you can see pygtk is already installed. I am a beginner so do not know if there are any variables that control which version of python is running and where it is looking for its installed modu...

Had just found this http://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewt ... 62#p108862

All worked perfectly first time. I can now connect to the default desktop using a variety of clients. Ubuntu/Android/Windows.

Perfect thank you.

Hi, I am trying to setup a remote desktop connection to my Rpi B+, I can successfully connect using to the Rpi running tightvncserver but I get a new x session and not the default desktop (the one that I would see if I was sitting in front of the Rpi's monitor). I want to remote into the default des...
