Reinstalling Hassio

HI, I’m planning to re-install my Hassio as it can’t install any addon. However, do i need to reformat the card first before etch the hassio image again?

Also, I’m using static ip address in my raspberry pi now and have that setup in my router. I’m planning to use the same static ip network config and with that stored in the usb pendrive and stick it to my pi for the reflash. Will that work?

Etcher will overwrite. On the offchance you can’t I use MiniTool Partition Manager (Windows) to remove the partitions and then etch (although I get a blank screen lately in etcher so I use Win32Disk Imager)

Yes it will. I only reserve the IP address in my router and that works nicely for years.

You meant can’t or can use the MiniTool Partition on the off chance?

Use minitool if etcher won’t re-image it
