If you are using NOOBS, then you have to do this for both NOOBS and the installed OS. If you are only editing the files on the NOOBS partition, this is not sufficient. You can use the NOOBS 'Edit Config' option to edit the config.txt and cmdline.txt of the installed OS. Additionally, you can disable...

@Konsta - Any reason why fstab is called fstab.rpi4 in ramdisk.img, but fstab.rpi3 in ramdisk-recovery.img?
Apart from that, the recovery image seems to have converted ok for PINN. Hopefully there are no other hardcoded partition references in there.

@wodak - you should continue further discussion of PINN in the PINN thread to avoid cluttering Konsta's thread

But the capability you describe is already included in PINN through it's ability to backup an installed OS to a USB device and subsequently reinstall it to another SD card.

@wodak - Ahh, I understand your issue now that you have explained it fully.
It was an ommission of PINN to update the LineageOS recovery image. I am converting the Feb release atm so I hope to fix this at the same time.

It's only used for the analog values that are mapped to the joy_* keys. If the analog value is above the given threshold, it moves the mouse the number of steps to provide some sort of proportional speed control for the mouse. Increasing the first threshold to 1000 will provide some deadband in case...

I wrote up some instructions here -> https://github.com/procount/pinn/blob/m ... oy_keys.md
It's impossible to give support on all the different types of joystick, but I am experimenting with a new interface which might make it into a future version of PINN.

The speed displayed on download is in megabytes per sec, but it's measuring the number of bytes written to disk after decompressing the files, so the actual network download speed will be less than that. I can't explain your slow download speeds. I only have 39Mbps FTTC, but it's still a lot quicker...

You could base your design on a standard off-the-shelf 1/10th scale radio controlled model car. It has all the basic components: chassis, wheels, motor, servo for steering, electronic speed controller etc. Just use a raspberry Pi with a servo controller to control the steering servo and electronic s...

@epoch1970 - Yes, a FUSE file system like mergerfs may be the best solution for those users. @prthorsenjr - Using OMV does not preclude the use of LVM. In fact, OMV includes a plugin for LVM so it integrates very well, allowing you to manage your lvm virtual groups and drives etc from within OMV's w...

Fstab is ok. It's using partition label names to determine where the partitions are so no mods needed.

procount

Good work. An easy fix, unlike some of the OSes I come across.
You may want to look at /etc/fstab on sda2 as well and check those references still refer to the correct drives. They may, or may not, need updating.

When you mentioned a "unioning" file system, I first thought of overlayfs, and how that can be used to overlay a readonly filesystem with writeable files that can be thrown away to restore the original content. But a quick read of the provided link indicates mergerfs is a bit different and could be ...

This only works if the boot partition identifies the location of the rootfs partition using some consistent method, such as by partition label. (I know Ubuntu Mate uses this approach, which makes it impossible to have more than one instance of the OS on your storage devices.) Normally the location o...

Edit your /boot/config.txt manually (e.g. in a terminal with:) sudo nano /boot/config.txt Add the following lines: hdmi_force_hotplug=1 hdmi_ignore_edid=0xa5000080 make sure the file includes lines like the following to set the resolution you want hdmi_group=X hdmi_mode=Y Where you can find values f...

How are you powering the HDDs? Do they have their own power supplies, or are you powering them from the Raspberry Pi USB ports? The Raspberry Pi is limited in what current it can deliver over USB, so the addition of the 2nd HDD might over power it if they don't have their own supply. In this case, t...

I will try to update it soon. I have many to update and little time.

It sounds like you are nearly there. What you are missing is the fixup of the partition references that is normally done by the partition_setup.sh script. You will need to edit /cmdline.txt on retropie's boot partition, and /etc/fstab on Retropie's root partition. Currently they will refer to the fi...

If you want a smaller boot partition, you need to change it from FAT32 to FAT16 or FAT12. All of these types are bootable.

I'm not sure how you are converting a .tar.gz to an .img file on a Windows machine. You can't just change the extension, it is a totally different file format. I didn't convert Alpine for use with PINN (that was thanks to Matt), but I suspect you just ungz/untar it to an already formatted SD card. W...

Is there a way to run Noobs 'after' you have installed the OS that I don't know about? Sure there is. AFTER you have installed your OS, and it has booted into it, reboot the pi, either using the reboot command, or safely shut it down and remove/re-apply the power. The next time your Pi starts it wi...

That is what I was used to with Noobs 2.7.0, but 3.3.1 does not allow. That's odd. I know of no reason why 3.3.1 or the Pi4 would prevent this. I will have to test. I have selected each of the available OS', but for some reason none make the 'edit config' available. It stays greyed out even with an...

Yes you can edit the config.txt file on a PC, but IT IS available in NOOBS. You must first select which OS you want to edit the config.txt file of to enable the button, even if you have only one OS installed.
