Use apt-get commands

any idea here? having the same issue,
trying to install htop inside haas OS

HassOS is based on buildroot, not possible to add packages there… You can however add packages in the homeassistant container

@pergola.fabio yes, so it means i cant install htop inside HassOS?

no, not inside hassos, only inside homeassistant container

see below

remember, you need todo it again on an HA update, or just add in an automation

@pergola.fabio yes got it, but sometimes you need analyze hassos instead of homeassistant container. my homeassistant was eating 50% cpu constantly and to find out the issue i need to login into hassos and find out the problematic process… it wont be possible on container level.

HassOS isnt alpine, its buildroot, there is no package installer there

top is in both os and HA container
The community SSH and web terminal has htop pre-installed

but thats avail only within docker/container not inside hassOS

What does top not show that htop would?
or glances for that matter.

same … but htop just more convenient.

I think you all might be better off installing HA core on top of your own OS such as Raspbian, then all these problems go away and you can do what you want with packages in the OS :slight_smile:

I manually have to type in “resize” to size terminal properly in tmux all the time when resizing windows. Normally adding xterm package solves this issue, not sure what problem is with ha. I have this running under BHYVE virtualization in FreeBSD.
