I appreciate all of your hard work on DietPi. I think I have a good idea on how to accomplish what I am looking for. I will be sure to follow up here. Excellent. We have many automation features coming in the next update (v104). This will allow you to fully automate the DietPi 1st run installation,...

I decided to keep it simple (stupid). I create a file /boot/Wireless.conf ctrl_interface=DIR=/run/wpa_supplicant update_config=1 network={ ssid="WirelessNetwork" psk="0123456789" } I then updated my /etc/network/interfaces to reference it: # Wifi auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet dhcp ...

I have played with this method for first run. However, I will be installing some software before shipping out. Any good ideas for subsequent boots? Enable wpa_supplicant and sym link the conf on to /boot? You cannot connect a device to a network if its headless, and, is not already accessable on th...

For a headless machine, what would be the easiest way to allow the user to provide wireless network information? My first thought is to provide a file in /boot, since it can be mounted by Windows. Provide a sym link to /etc/network/interfaces? Other ideas? Any way to have multiple wifi networks ava...

DietPi vs Raspbian Lite (Stats, features)

Great read. Very interested!

DBordello

Hi Dan, Thank you for the update, always exciting! I am curious on your thoughts of DietPi vs Raspbian Jessie Lite for long-term deployments? I am putting a couple RPis into service that I will not have physical access to, that run some simple python scripts. I *should* have remote access. Debian is...

DBordello

There also appears to be a I2C bus. That could be interesting to play around with.

DBordello

Interesting idea. 500 baud is plenty for certain applications (like, hey TV, turn on).

DBordello

Great work. pigpio is a joy to work with. It appears to chew some CPU (8% on a RPi A+) even when idle. Just curious, what is it up to? By default it samples GPIO 0-31 200 thousand times a second. The time is being spent checking to see which GPIO have changed state. It's a constant overhead, and pr...

Curious question, why are you using USB relays instead of triggering relays using the GPIO pins?

Fourdee4d, thanks for the prompt reply. I had assumed Raspbian was based on Debian anyways (not Ubuntu). I am a huge debian fan. The cloud based solution would require a lot of work, but would be very slick. Two images would probably be required, one that would auto-deploy, and one that wouldn't. I...

Out of curiosity, what filesystem is /boot?

Edit: Nevermind, appears to be a stupid question. The BCM firmware requires that it is fat.

DBordello

Fourdee4d, Looks like a nice update. May I ask what requires a complete new image? Debian is able to dist-upgrade from major version to major version. Since this requires burning a new image, it has me thinking about automatic deployment. This is mostly a discussion, since there are some major impli...

In the spirit of generality, I would be supportive of any in-stock availability.

I personally, am desperate for some in the US.

If the SD card is encrypted, the RPi needs a way to decrypt it.

How do you plan on providing the decryption key?

DBordello

Let's keep a discussion going on where we can get these new fancy Pi Zeros.

I have a Christmas project that they would be perfect for. Therefore, I need 3 of them.

Therefore, if you come across a location with them in stock, post here.

Does anybody know what service calls NTP and sets the clock?

I am starting a service after network starts, but the clock is not synced yet.

My boot services: http://imgh.us/plot_19.svg

DBordello

See what is taking so long. systemd-analyze plot > plot.svg is a good place to get started. However, that won't help you after X is started. For example, I was able to get my non-gui service started within 2.2s of poweron. The kernel is 1.3s, and systemd takes 0.7s to get initialized. Hard to beat t...

DBordello

I should follow up, that running from the 5V headers appears to be working great. However, I did blow a Pi, so it is not without risk (user error).

DBordello

Get job! I am very impressed with my first install. Two quick comments: It appears root is required to access the GPIO. I am not sure what changes are required, but raspbian no longer has that requirement. There does not appear to be a GUI way to enable SPI. Not a big deal, but I figured it would me...
