Install HASSIO on Raspberry pi 4 Raspbian Buster (with Windows PC)

[Mutt (Muttley)]

I’ll keep you posted on my progress with the same item.

The status of R Pi 4 bootloader is given on this post (currently not from USB (be that USB stick or SSD) : -

Install hass.io on Raspberry Pi4 on SSD

Here you can see if the USB-boot is available. At the time of me writing this message it isn’t. https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom/blob/45aa4ed42cf558725aa83fbe9624017e60a0caa0/firmware/release-notes.md

I think Skynet has some good experience on this so I will go over there and read up what he has to say.

Rpi 4 installation

The only way I got SSD booting on Pi4 is to go with Raspbian Buster instead of HassOS and then install Hassio on top. The caviat is that you will still have to have sd card plugged in to boot but then everything will run of SSD usb. I got a Kingston A2000 NVMe drive (it’s pretty cheap considering the speed you get) and Shinestar adapter for it . While you are there pickup yourself this bad boy heat sink case Pi4 runs much hotter then pi3 and will throttle, and you will be back at pi3 speed …

Skynet, what’s the latest on SSD adapters any particular recomendations ? TIA
