Hello all. Please be kind.
I bought an N2+ with emmc module. I flashed it as per the instructions in the Homeassistant install pages, specifically, how to install on the N2+ without having to have a card reader.
I downloaded the latest version haos_odroid-n2-9.5.img.xz. I flashed it successfully using Etcher. I re-boot in MMC mode and logged into port 8183 on my network, IP assigned by DHCP.
I was pretty proud of myself at this point, had the HA startup page in my browser. The ODroid was at a screen ending with an ha>.
So I start to read the instructions about enabling IC2. I logged into the HA machine in a different TTY. And I see all sorts of Docker stuff and the daemon is running. I didn’t want to install the Docker version, I wanted to install the Home Assistant Operating System: Minimal Operating System. That’s what I clicked.
What have I done wrong? Why do I seem to have the wrong version?
And do I need to enable IC2 and if so, by what method?
You did not do anything wrong. HA OS is a minimal linux OS with a bunch of docker containers installed to run HA.
Don’t know about IC2, in all the years I have used HA, I don’t think I ever used it.
Do you mean I2C? No clue about “IC2”…
If so, for sure, if you don’t know if you need it, you don’t. It’s a protocol used for talking to additional hardware components hooked to your device.
No, control panel (not sure what you call it) is fine on my network connecting over that port. I was actually looking using the shell on the Odroid and seeing all this Docker stuff.
