Hi guys, so far I managed to run the operating system on an LXD virtual machine but I still have some problems. This is what I did so far:
After installing LXD using Snap and initializing it:
- Downloaded HA OS qcow2 image from here
- Created a metadata.yaml file with the following contents:
architecture: x86_64
creation_date: 1624888256
properties:
description: Home Assistant image
os: Debian
release: buster 10.10
- Compress the metadata.yaml file:
tar -cvzf metadata.tar.gz metadata.yaml - Create the LXC image:
lxc image import metadata.tar.gz haos_ova.qcow2 --alias hassio - Create LXC VM from the imported image:
lxc launch hassio ha --vm -c security.secureboot=false
At this point I can do lxc console ha to get into the HA OS VM’s console. Two problems I have right now.
- Once I get into the console and login as root (without password), I go straight into the # prompt, skipping the hassio prompt.
- The IP address is not obtained for the instance from outside the VM. I need this of course to access Home Assistant service on the browser.
Any help with this is greatly appreciated! I also posted in here for assistance:
