Installation on PI3b // Issue with docker image

Installation

Hi all,
I’ve just installed HA via the Raspberry tool and started the the PI. The page comes up but the initilization does constanlty run into the following issue. I’ve tried to reboot but it did not help.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Hi Leiste,

The installer image includes just enough of HA OS to get the RPi3b connected to the network. It then downloads the latest versions of the main software packages to give you an up to date system.

There seem to be bursts of similar reports to yours where the base HA OS can’t connect to the GitHub content delivery network (many servers across the world), or something is missing on the servers.

Sometimes this could be a temporary glitch (try again in an hour), something more serious (try again tomorrow), or even something odd with your Internet provider (hard to say).

This forum has several ports with the same error messages (Search is good!), but basically, try again!

Some errors can be caused by a bad SD card, or other corrupted storage, but for a new install “something odd with the Internet” is more likely.

If this helps, :heart: this post!
