Does anyone know if it’s possible to get to the configuration files using a chromebook?
I found an app that should help, but I’m not sure how to fill everything out.
Thanks for any help you can offer!
are you running your hassio instance from a windows box? or a pi?
It’s on a Pi. I just didn’t know if it was possible to connect to.
just use ssh… if you don’t know the linux command line take the 5 minutes to learn it… you’ll be a lot better off in the long run
to use the chromebook file server from the app you’d need the samba info that you set up on your pi (or the default) for your chromebook. I don’t own a apple or windows computer so it’s hard for me to know what the defaults would be.
I don’t use apple or windows so linux is just a way of life.
Seems like a fair compromise. Do have a recommended resource for introduction to linux command line?
other than google, nixcraft is awesome
MTA: speaking of chromebooks, if you’re serious look into enabling DEVELOPER mode on your CB. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to get more seriouser about Linux. A simple CTRL+ALT+T and you’re in a shell ready to ssh, script, and make the world what you want.
Step even further with a crouton (chroot) shell and now you’re running a true linux distro on your chromebook, while it’s still a chrome book. with crouton you can install php, pyhton and so on and now you’re writing the custom_components for HA. Not to mention the abitilty to VM Windows machines or different versions of linux.
I’m on my 3rd chromebook. I love these things. I’'m so hard on them though… Imagine turning it on on 1/1/2016 and never turning it off until 2017. and it just works.
Broaden the mind.
Awesome. Thank you for the resources!
