Nice solution. I actually moved from Armbian and now use a different packaging of Debian I documented here. I had issue with Armbian when first moving to bullseye, which caused me to look out alternate solution.
Armbian is expanding support to more devices with preinstalled HA
Traditionally, Home Assistant’s Operating System (HAOS) is optimized for popular mainstream hardware such as the Raspberry Pi and x86 platforms. However, one of the key limitations of HAOS is its restricted environment. As an embedded Linux system, HAOS is designed to run Home Assistant and little else, making it difficult to install additional applications alongside it. While this ensures a streamlined experience for Home Assistant, it also limits the flexibility and functionality that power users might desire.
This is where Armbian steps in, breaking down the barriers imposed by the official HAOS. Armbian offers a unique advantage by providing Home Assistant on top of a full-fledged operating system—Armbian Minimal. This not only allows Home Assistant to run on a vast selection of ARM-based devices supported by Armbian but also opens the door to a more versatile and expandable smart home setup.
With Armbian, you can enjoy the best of both worlds: the power and simplicity of Home Assistant combined with the flexibility of a complete operating system. Whether you’re using a Raspberry Pi, a Rockchip, an Allwinner, or any other ARM-based device, Armbian with preinstalled Home Assistant provides a robust solution for your smart home needs—without the downsides of a restricted embedded environment.
