New Hass.io images, based on HassOS

DavidFW1960 · August 16, 2018, 1:31am

Ok so I got a USB boot working for Hassio.

I have a Pi3B (not a 3B plus)

I installed the latest Raspbian Stretch image on a USB and booted from it and then I used Dale3h’s script which installs Docker and then installs the Hassio container and the Supervisor container. I restored my snapshot and it was all working except for a couple of things I needed to do.

change the ssh port from 22 to something else. You will still be able to use port 22 to ssh into the host.
I needed to uninstall and reinstall the configurator addon - I’m using the one in Daniels own repo as it is kept better up-to-date than the official repo.
I needed to uninstall and reinstall Daniel Welsh’s Dropbox backup addon. Neither configurator or dropbox would start till I did that!

Dale3h’s script can be found here:

If you login on port 22 (to the host) you will find all the config files at /usr/share/hassio/homeassistant
If you login on ssh port in addon, you will find everything in the ‘right’ place anyway.

I haven’t timed it but I think it’s a fair bit faster.

I am also noticing a database error so I’m going to delete the database and restart.

Note this is NOT running HassOS or ResinOS it’s running Raspbian and Hass.io

EDIT: I just deleted the database and restarted. It took less than a minute!
Also I’m currently running 0.76.0b3 with the new auth and also legacy_api and lovelace.

I flush the hassos on my Mac by Etcher. But looks like can’t boot it up, tried several different versions. Is there anyone encounter similar issue?

If I plug to the monitor, here is what I see.

Are you wired or wireless?

PS it has obviously booted. You do realise it takes anywhere from 20 minutes to a couple of hours to download and install home assistant?

DavidFW1960 · August 19, 2018, 7:32am

have you tried connecting to http://ip-address:8123 ?
what are you expecting to see in a ssh session?

ausun · August 19, 2018, 7:33am

It’s wired. Really, it’s booted? I can’t access the HA page for now. Anyway, I will wait and check later.

ausun · August 19, 2018, 7:34am

I was not able to connect to IP:8123. SSH was refused.

DavidFW1960 · August 19, 2018, 7:36am

the web interface will show the HA logo for a bit but it will go blank/dead and will then load the GUI. You aren’t going to see anything interesting on the ssh screen.
don’t connect using ssh!!!

use your web browser. type in ip address:8123

you do not ssh to port 8123

nickrout · August 19, 2018, 8:05am

Of course it has booted. What do you think generated all that text? A poltergeist?

rotbarsch · August 19, 2018, 9:51am

There are some issues with power supply on HassOS. My system boots, too, but I can’t connect to UI and Hass is not running. Check my other thread.

ausun · August 19, 2018, 11:04am

It’s there any method that I can download the old resinos?

Any news regarding GPIOs on HassOS? Meanwhile updated to 1.10 and still edge detection is failing for RPi-RF Addon.

Roekeloos · August 31, 2018, 7:45am

I am not sure whether this is related to GPIO issues, but I can’t get PiFace to work.

Would it be worth adding to the blog post that you should manually add additional add-on repositories before restoring backup, if you want those add-ons to be restored?

Bobby_Nobble · September 19, 2018, 6:40pm

No, because you don’t!

jamesking · September 19, 2018, 8:10pm

Huh. They didn’t add to the restore until I added the repositories to a freshly booted install, and then restored?

DavidFW1960 · September 19, 2018, 11:33pm

That has happened to me when I restored a HassOS snapshot on A Debian system and might have happened when I changed from 32bit to 64bit but it’s not normal to need to do it.

srdhrgowda · October 5, 2018, 12:50pm

Not sure what was the issue, my hassio was very slow after the new update. Now i am on rasbian and the worst part is i cant install hassos inside it.If anyone could help me on virtual machine installation on raspbian and running hassos ? need your inputs please

talondnb · October 5, 2018, 3:27pm

I had to do this today after migrating to HassOS.

Crhass · October 8, 2018, 6:35pm

I have also had to do this before when I have restored snapshots but I just moved to HassOS and the snapshot from resinos installed everything. Boot time is definitely longer on hassos - just over 5 minutes for me. Log shows various add-ons and services taking over 10 seconds to load. Http site feels very responsive.
