Installation Home Assistant OS

Hi
I downloaded the HAOS 18.3 image off git hub, whats the default log in and the odroid C4 is used headless
Thanks

2

User root. No password.

OK Thanks, Loaded on a C4 18.3 is pretty useless on a headless Odroid C4, as no inet address, so no way of getting into it , I’ll load unbuntu back on it and install docker ,

Try again time

Run and share ha network info and ip a. Did you connect a network cable?

5

Hi
The network cable was connected, and I checked with nmap to see if it had connected to the network. I have no way of using a keyboard and mouse as this device is totally headless , everything is done with SSH over ethernet

It’s kinda impossible to ascertain what’s going on without a display or serial terminal. Why can’t you connect a monitor and keyboard to it?

7

Managed to find a monitor and keyboard , and once they were connected it acquired its IP
address.
3 questions: 1 how to change the port to 8123, instead of 80
2 is there a companion app for iphones, , MAC OS
3. Does 18.3 auto update
Thanks for the help

18.3 is the current version. When an update is available, you will receive a update notification.

Also treat it like a server. Intentional updates read the changelog first.

Thanks for the assistance, I hit problems with SSH, the client is installed but not the server,
So I’ve loaded in in docker on top of Ubuntu24
