HA image for Raspberry pi 2

Hi all,

I would like to install HA to my old Rpi 2 for testing purposes. Apparently Home Assistant has removed the image from Installing Home Assistant OS. Where can I find it?

Thank you for help.

Has anyone had luck with these images since this post?

Hi,

yes, it works!

you can use es well:
https://github.com/home-assistant/operating-system/releases/download/7.2/haos_rpi2-7.2.img.xz

e.g. unzip → write the image with win32 Disk image to your SD card

Hi,
I´m testing with my rasp2 and it´s working… but,
what is the username and password for this img?

You should get an onboarding screen where you create a username and password.

Thank you very much friend!

Hi, I tried all of those images and none of them seem to work. my raspi just doesnt boot.
here’s what i did:

  1. downloaded the image
  2. unzipped with PeaZip
  3. wrote the image as a custom image with raspberry pi imager
  4. tried to boot from that sd card

the raspberry boots just fine when I select the generic image in the raspberry pi imager.

any help is much appreciated!
thanks

EDIT: silly me, just realised that I have a “Rasperry Pi B+ V1.2” downloading the correct image (haos_rpi-6.0.img.xz) solved the problem :wink:

I just download https://github.com/home-assistant/operating-system/releases/download/13.1/haos_rpi2-13.1.img.xz and it works on my Raspi 2

Method: go to Releases · home-assistant/operating-system · GitHub and click ok “Show all 46 assets” (where that number 46 might change with other releases)
