Raspbian OS, like Ubuntu, are derivatives of Debian. Both work but are not officially supported. There’s an existing Community Guide for installing Home Assistant Supervised on Raspbian OS and it advises users to use Debian (so that the end-result will be an officially supported system).
For more information about this policy, refer to ADR-0014.
# 0014. Installation method: Home Assistant Supervised
Date: 2020-06-03
## Status
Accepted
## Context
Define a supported installation method as per [ADR-0012](https://github.com/home-assistant/architecture/blob/master/adr/0012-define-supported-installation-method.md).
## Decision
This installation method provides the full Home Assistant experience on a regular operating system. This means, all components from the Home Assistant method are used, except for the Home Assistant Operating System. This system will run the Home Assistant Supervisor. The Supervisor is not just an application, it is a full appliance that manages the whole system. It will clean up, repair or reset settings to default if they no longer match expected values.
By not using the Home Assistant Operating System, the user is responsible for making sure that all required components are installed and maintained. Required components and their versions will change over time. Home Assistant Supervised is provided as-is as a foundation for community supported do-it-yourself solutions. We only accept bug reports for issues that have been reproduced on a freshly installed, fully updated Debian with no additional packages.
This method is considered advanced and should only be used if one is an expert in managing a Linux operating system, Docker and networking.
