No /boot partition, no systemctl command

Installation Home Assistant OS
1

This has to be a real newbie question.

I installed hass.io to a sd card and it boots nicely with my RP3B. I can access it with http, smb and ssh. Now I want to configure Z-Wave with Razberry board.

  1. There is a good documentation available (https://home-assistant.io/docs/z-wave/device-specific/#razberry-board), but I’m stuck because I cannot locate /boot partition to be able to edit config.txt. Command ‘df’ is not showing it, neither can I find config.txt with ‘find’ command.

When I made the bootable sd card with Etcher in my desktop, I saw also /boot partition. So where is it?

  1. Next step after that would be disabling BT by using ‘systemctl’ command. That is not available either. It is normally included in package systemd, but as I have understood one should not install packages as you normally do in linux (.deb, .rpm, etc) but use addons.

What is the correct way to get ‘systemctl’ to work?

Thanks in advance!

hassio is NOT raspbian. You cannot modify the host OS. If you want to play with the host OS, you need hassbian.

So does this mean that it is not possible to use Razberry board to enable Z-Wave with hass.io? If so, that is not so clearly stated when following the instructions… Maybe I missed something. But I will use raspbian instead then.

Thanks for your answer & support!

Actually you can use Z-Wave with HASSIO, but you cannot access the things normally like you would if it were running raspbian/hassbian

But it looks like the bluetooth access is built into HASSIO addons already, and based on this page, bluetooth is disabled by default:

For information on running the Razberry board on hassio please see:

Thanks a bunch! Now this should be more clear to me. I’ll try hass.io according those documentations but also raspbian (with another sd card).
