Have you seen this issue? Might have a solution for you.
Hi @Eatoff That is a very interesting thread, seems like there is a bug in the aeonstick which can be circumvented with a usb hub, very odd indeed.
Not sure what changed.
I just tried reinstalling it, and apart from buster going to release, and I had to let that change version, the install went fine, but now I see a message that it canāt fetch the landing page 
I had that problem too, then realized I forgot to change and add to hassio_install.sh the following:
/raspberrypi3-homeassistant
and
/armhf-hassio-supervisor
Odd, I did modify it, and it showed it correctly when I opened it as far as I could see, but Iāve now removed the containers and images from docker, re-fetched the hassio-install script, remodified it, and now it downloaded it, and itās setting it up now, finally

I got a very small and simple USB2 hub, and put it in between, then unplugged and replugged it, and then it showed up in the tty, and I can use the z-wave integration.
Does it show up without the hub now? Or hub is needed all the time, not just to trigger it being recognised?
It needs the hub in-between all the time, and if I boot the rpi with everything connected, it doesnāt seem to appear, not until I unplug and replug it.
Itās very much faster, very nice indeed.
Odd thing though, the Fritz! device tracker integration no longer works. The fritz!box are showing them as connected, but they are marked as ānot_homeā in the device_tracker.

Thatās a bit lame about the stick, but at least itās kind of working
Iāll give it a go next weekend with my HUSBZB stick. Perhaps it may be different being a combo stick
Ok, this might be a dumb question, but how do we modify in a text editor? Can I pull the SD card and see the .sh file on my windows machine and edit it there?
I have Buster lite installed, so no desktop. I could always go back to regular Buster and plug it into a screen and edit that way?
If you created the empty SSH file in the boot partition back when you created the usb, you have the SSH daemon running, and then you can connect with putty
Yeah, I have connected with PuTTY to check it was up and running. Can I edit text in PuTTY though?
Use āsudo nano FILEā
I did an inplace upgrade on my Pi 3B+ (well, on a non-production 3B+ Pi with a backup of the image from the production Pi, of courseā¦):
grep -rl stretch /etc/apt/ | sudo xargs sed -i ās/stretch/buster/gā
sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade
I had to restart the actual upgrade (the second line) a couple of times because it didnāt get all the necessary files and errored out, but the third time run went through. Then I did this:
sudo apt-get install python3 python3-venv python3-pip libffi-dev libssl-dev
sudo -u homeassistant -H -s
cd /srv/homeassistantstant.components.nest
python3 -m venv .stant.components.nest
source bin/activatecomponents.nest
python3 -m pip install wheels.nest
pip3 install homeassistant
hass
So far itās running without a hitch after an hour or so, everything of settings, atuomations, scripts and Z-Wave-settings were preserved. I will get my 4 tomorrow and see if I can simply put the SSD (I run from an USB M2.SSD) into that and run with it.
Pi 4 isnāt able to boot via USB yet, so you might run into an issue there.
But there are instructions on toms hardware for how to move all files to USB, just needing the SD card to boot.

Thanks mate, Iāll give that a go.
Thatās a real bummer! Hot the hell can they go back one step? 
There are a few bugs, and errors in the pi4, the usb-c connection doesnāt identy itself correctly, so an intelligent charger like one for Sony og iPhone will not work as a power source. They have said it will be fixed in a later revision, so the current one sounds like it canāt be fixed
There are also problems with the aeon Labs stick as I mentioned.
Bloody annoying! I didnāt see that about the Z-Stick. Iām glad I didnāt waste hours trying to get that to work, I will connect it via an USB hub. But of course that was ome of the things Iād like to fix by moving to the Pi 4ā¦ Iāll test the thing for a few weeks and may return it if Iām not satisfied. Thereās a 30 days ātesting periodā in the shop Iām using. I hope my Samsung phone charger will work, though!
Edit: I found one user that is using his S8 charger without problems, so I hope the same goes for an S9 charger, I donāt think they changed them.
Edit 2: Who the hell thought it would be a good idea to fix booting from network before booting from USB SSD? I think Iāve seen one or two people using network boot and hundreds using SSDās n the Pi 3!
Itās only if the cable is e-marked it will fail according to:
