Newbie with problem Noobs and Hassio fro SD card

Hi, as a total newbie with RPi and Hassio i am trying to install hassio on my raspberry using an sd card.
I installed Rasbian using NOOBS from aan preinstalled sd card. How can i install hassio? Do i just start over with a bigger sd card (can i even install NOOBS and slach an immage on the same sd card) or can i buy an USB sd card reader and use this next tot the sd card with noobs?

or am i obliged to use my noobs sd card and manually install hassio from the commandline?

help will be very much appreciated!!!

I would probably have a look at hassos. Depending on your needs.

I want to use the raspberry to build a home automation system for o complete home (using z-wave en relays).

Does this mean i will not have to install raspbian but just use an sd card with hassio and hassos?

Yes, hassos is an OS with home assistant.

I initially tried installing Home Assistant on Raspian and gave up in frustration. Just get another MicroSD card, at least 32gB, and flash the image file from here: https://www.home-assistant.io/hassio/installation/

That’s what I plan on doing when my RPI arrives.
Any idea why the 32 bit version is recommended for the RPI 3B+ 64-bit computer?

JUST GUESSING!

But I suspect that it has to do with the add-ons and components not all working with 64-bit addressing- especially considering that the 64-bit pi is new.

I also gave up in frustration. Just removed my noobs card en inserted the micro SD with the image. Can not see HA starting at the webadres though. Probably has something to do with the wifi so i cannot acces it through my laptop i suppose. Found a youtube tutorial about this. i Will try again with help of this tutorial. See what happens then.

Are you using the IP address, like 192.168.1.23:8123

no, i just found out that this could be a problem because the router may not allow to use the network name? is that correct?

The thing is, on the HDMI i see that the installation probably runs fine. Just do not see it appearing on the webadres.

I have been convinced that HassOs is not currently reliable, based on my current VM.

When my RPI 3B+ arrives today I plan on using Raspain via NOOBS and install Hassio. As a test, I dod that on a Debian VM last night.
Just use the generic Linux installation. Raspain should be similar to Ubuntu. No universe repository though. I found it not needed.
