I have Home Assistant running in a virtual box already. I’m trying to switch over to a Raspberry Pi 4b 4GB and install Home Assistant on a SSD drive. The Raspberry PI is connected to a switch with an ethernet cable. My router has given it an ip address of 10.0.0.31. I have followed some tutorials and I can boot from the SSD drive. As Home Assistant is booting up, I see a failed message on one line (figure 1). Once it hits the 1:30 seconds, it continues to boot up and displays the the words “Home Assistant” (figure 2). When I try to connect to the Pi, I get a message stating it cannot connect. I have tried this with 2 SSD drives and an SSD card. All fail at the exact same spot and cannot connect.
In another post, someone was having a very similar issue, except they were using a virtual machine. Someone said the op of that post should use the following command.
Adjusted for my network:
I know the “enp2s1” needs changed to match my Rasp Pi. I am just not sure what that is at this moment.
How long are giving it, it can take up to 20 minutes, although normally a bit quicker on a Rpi4, That second pic looks like it has started fine. But once you see that screen it can take a while before it boots to the web interface. Try http://10.0.0.31:8123 if you haven’t already.
I suspect that systemd-time-wait-sync.service starts too soon and that there is no internet connection available yet. I’ve had something similair when I tried to make it run as a Tor hidden service.
What you can try is edit the systemd-time-wait-sync.service and add the following lines under the [unit] section.
OK, I figured out how to access the file but it is read only. The permissions on the file are -rw-r–r–. and root is the owner. I thought I was root but it appears not. I tried sudo but that command is not found and chmod just tells me it is a read-only file system. Any idea how I become root or make the file not read only?
Thank you both for your time and assistance. I found the issue was a bad ethernet cable. Once I switched it out for a different one, the raspberry pi got an ip address and now I can access it through the browser.
I’m not here every day, so sorry for the slow reply
