They’ve just updated Hassbian to work with the new pi
So I’m guessing (hoping) the Hass.io version shouldn’t be too far away.

Got my new Pi 3B+ and have moved my Hassbian Home Assistant install to it, for anyone interested it’s an easy migration from the Pi 3B, here’s what I did to get it all working:
- Noted the MAC addres of the new Pi.
- In the router DHCP settings, replaced the MAC address of the old Pi with that of the new one.
- Made sure the old Pi is fully up to date.
- After powering down both devices, moved the storage device from the old Pi to the new one. ***
Powered on the device and HomeAssistant worked perfectly, I only ran into problems with PiHole and SoftEther VPN server as they apparnetly bind to the MAC address of your network device, after changing that all OK.
*** Usually your Micro SD card, In my case an SSD via USB port, don’t forget to enable USB boot mode on the new Pi if you’re running from SSD/USB stick
Was that with hassio or another haspbian?
For the folks that are wondering about HASSio, it is (as you know) basically a set of docker containers in ResinOS. So the question if HASSio will support pi3b+ soon-ish boils mostly down to if ResinOS does.
I believe HASSio is using ResinOS 1.3 and the latest one is 2.0?
Hassbian, I’ve edited my post to make it clearer.
Hi Guys
I am new to HA so been running hass.io on a old pi 1st gen. I’m loving it so deciding to update my pi.
Can anyone tell me whether the pi 3b+ is supported? If not should I just get a pi 3 or wait because the pi3b+ will be supported soon?

At the moment, the Pi 3B+ isnt supported by Hass.io
I don’t think the issue is with Hass itself, more a ResinOS issue.
resinOS v2.12.5, which was released yesterday, has now support for the rpi 3b+.
so this shouldn’t take too long from now.

Hello,
Has anyone had any issues with running HASSBIAN on the 3B+ yet?
I did a fresh install of the HASSBIAN image and set up everything from scratch, but I get regular freezes where neither the Home Assistant front end or HADashboard are accessible?
When it works, it works great, but these freezes are regular, maybe 6 or 7 times a day (depending on how soon I notice and if I am home to reboot).
I did setup the watchdog and it was rebooting regularly with /var/log/messages not changed in over 1407 seconds, I changed this to monitor /var/log/syslog this morning, but it has frozen to external access again, but not rebooted.
Has anyone else had issues like this?

What are you powering it with? If it’s not a proper USB power supply capable of at least 2.4A (for example, you’re using any form of mobile charger) then you’ll have problems like this.
Does anyone have a link to the build process for ResinOS?
I am using a new official raspberry pi power supply.
Got home tonight and I can ssh in, I can access my sub camera running through motion, but home assistant is not running.
The error said something about ‘signal’, but I can’t find any information on this…
You are right, I inserted sd card with hassio installed in Rasp pi 3 B + and green LED is not blinking at all.
What should we do in order resolve this issue?
Thanks
I use Hassbian with the latest Pi since a week and it works perfectly @seamus65
Try maybe to install another OS, and if it’s locking as well, it would prove that it’s not Hassbian s fault, and return the Pi to the shop.
If you can share the actual error message, it might be possible for somebody to help, With a single word out of it though… 
Sorry, I was away from my computer:

That seems to be the message in the log whenever I have problems…
got same problems here:
Hope HA launch the image for your Raspberry Pi 3 model B+ very soon.
Issue opened.
It’s my first time opening an issue and I am away from home, but hopefully I have put in enough information.
