Re: Can't SSH into B3
There is a neat trick to fearless editing of ssh-configurations: Use two ssh-sessions. Log in and sudo in two different terminal windows from your client. Edit the ssh config in one, continue to keep both terminals open and restart the ssh daemon from one of the terminals. Now you can either log out...

Re: How to build a kernel for Debian on Excito B3
Thanks Mouette and Gordon for your help! Now I have something to do the next rainy weekend here. And the south of Sweden is quite rainy this time of the year, so sooner rather than later i believe. ;) I'll be back with a followup on my progress. Thanks again, this has been on my TODO-list for quite ...

Re: How to build a kernel for Debian on Excito B3
My primary goal is to be able to build the most recent kernel version of Debian, 5.10.162.
An awesome but perhaps less likely stretch goal for me is to attempt the most recent Debian testing kernel. Right now 6.1.12.

Re: Easyfind end of service
I'm not using easyfind so this is just a comment from the sidelines. However, there are plenty of other trustworthy dynamic dns providers. Free as well as commercial. Of course, if actual easyfind users pipes up and are willing to fund continued maintenance of the service or take over the maintenanc...

How to build a kernel for Debian on Excito B3
I would like to learn how to build a custom kernel package for Debian on Excito B3. However I need some help with that. I'm a developer by trade and quite comfortable managing Debian systems. Howerver C is not my home turf and I suppose the kernel needs to be cross compiled on a X86_64 to avoid a co...

Re: Bubba B1 failure mode
Have you tried to carefully wiggle the hard drive into the board connector. It could be a glitch or bad connection between the drive and board. Another long shot would be that it is a power issue. Check the power levels from the power supply, and try moving the power plug to another outlet, perhaps ...

Re: Buster image ?
@drdr6 There is a Debian 11 Bullseye installer too. Bullseye supersedes Debian 10 Buster. Do you have any particular reason not to try the latest version of Debian for B3? http://install.excito.org/bullseye/b3/bullseye-1.0/ - Bullseye installer https://forum.excito.com/viewtopic.php?t=6522 - Bullsey...

Re: Debian bullseye (11) image 1.0 released for B3
Mouette, I saw this commit:
> Imported new upstream version 5.10.117
https://github.com/Excito/kernel-5.10/c ... e02f05d339
Does that mean that you'll roll out kernel 5.10.117 as a stable update to all bullseye users now? If so, yay!

Re: End of Arch Linux support for Excito devices
The current release of Debian, 11 Bullseye, has planned LTS - Long Term Support - until June 2026. So you'll get a few years more with Debian. https://wiki.debian.org/LTS As far as I know there hasn't been any final decision yet on whether the next version of Debian will support armel/amv5te. But it...

Annual reminder to replace your RTC batteries
April seems like a good month to make the annual "Remember to check your RTC battery" -month, right? :) I just opened my B3 and found a small mess of dried up powdery stuff from a leak around the RTC battery. I suppose I can just try it my self, but does anyone know if the B3 works well en...

Re: Openning the b3
As Gordon mentions the two L-shaped profiles are attached to the hard drive and are the only things that keeps the hard drive in place in the box. The L-profiles themselves are only attached to the hard drive and not screwed to the box. Likewise the hard drive is connected to the B3 circuit board on...

Re: B3 as gateway, throughput issues ...
I seem to recall that someone posted the results of network throughput tests here on the forum before. Probably many years ago. If you search the forums you might get lucky. N.B: It might be that I confuse it with disk performance tests though, because I'm certain there are several theads about that...

Re: How many B3's out there ?
I have a B3 running 24/7, and a spare that has seen little use except some experiments. I'm not using easyfind, so there was at least 201 active installations last year.
