I just installed hassio on my raspberry pi 3 b (install version 1.9) using etcher. Every video shows that you can just ssh into the raspberry, but i can not. As far as i can tell, there is even no real terminal client with a keyboard attached.
How can i install components or at lest just edit the configuration files using an web-browsing interface. As far as i can see, there is no place to edit the configuration files.
Whatever videos youāre watching about hassio should also explain how to get SSH running on itā¦or you could just read the documentation
Go to the Hass.io screen, then the Add On store, and install, configure and start samba. For security, you should setup a user and password.
Now you should have a working samba. You can go to the hassio/config directory and edit yaml files
If you installed the hassio image, you are not running rasbian, so you cant login as pi through ssh.

Then please refer me to the correct documentation, because i canāt find it. I can find lots of documentation of which settings to have, but there is no documentation on HOW to install the add-on!
The Hass.io screen is just a white blank page. So, thatās tough!
Can I use the terminal with an attached screen to do this?
If you select the three horizontal bar icon in the upper left, then Hass.io, and you get a blank, white screen, Iād guess your installation has a problem.
Have you tried to reset? Maybe even a hard power cycle, and see if that helps.
Randy
Really?
Well, thereās your problem.
Thanks flamingm0e: This was due to the fact, that I used this site documentation and the links to the page on ssh and sambaā¦ which tells NOTHING about how to install the add-on. That was so f***** frustrating.
Itās the second page of the āGetting Startedā link from the home page.
randytsuch: I have tried to reboot and a hard power cycle!
1.7 image: would not get IP from dhcp server
1.9 image: seems to have no Hass.io-screen
Is this normally so, that every new release has so many flaws.
flamingm0e: yeah, i see, a link from the installation ātutorialā to that site would probably be better than the other links!
Im a newbie too, and I was frustrated yesterday too so I get it.
Not sure what image I used, it was from a couple of weeks ago so Iād guess 1.8. Guess it could have been 1.7
I have my router set to provide a static ip to my piās, so maybe thatās why I didnāt see a dhcp issue?
OK, one more unofficial suggestion
Install stretch lite on a sd card, and bring up ssh with user pi as normal.
Gohere
and follow the instructions, which is basically one line.
I used it, and it works. And then youāll have the normal ssh stuff through user pi.
Path to the files is
/usr/share/hassio/homeassistant
Little more advice on my previous post.
I had to do a reinstall last night, and hereās what I did.
Install stretch lite to sd using etcher, and setup with ssh.
Perform a apt-get update and a upgrade
reboot (this is important I think)
follow the instructions from the link I have to install hass.io
wait. If it works correctly, you should see a message at the end how to connect to home assistant with the http addresses.
