Re: Debian bookworm (12) image 1.0 released for B3

I found the trouble and the fix, which was in one of @Mouett post: I needed to update UBoot so that it supports big (more than 2TB) disks.

The procedure is on the: wiki.

Re: Debian bookworm (12) image 1.0 released for B3

My hard drive is dead. I had to reinstall the whole box. I change the 2TB disk with a 4TB one, used the following install.ini file [wan] proto = static ipaddr = 192.168.42.1 netmask = 255.255.255.0 gateway = 192.168.42.253 nameservers = 80.67.169.12 [general] image = bookworm/bookworm-image-1.0-2023...

Re: Debian bookworm (12) image 1.0 released for B3

Again, thank's a lot for you very precious work. Even if everything seems to be slower since some months, my b3 is still running good and continously since...2011...and now with the stable Debian release since today (I didn't find the time to upgrade before today). Thank's to your work. Once again a...

Re: Debian 10 "Buster"

I also am very grateful for the wonderful work of MouettE.

When reading the post of Pressurized I thought I should have thank MouettE a long time ago.

Thank's to you, MouettE.

Booting b3 without battery or working CMOS clock

I needed to reboot my excito b3 two days ago. Something I did not do for a **very long** time. It runs up-to-date Debian stretch. That went bad: the box did not start correctly and the light stays red. I remove the disk to check partitions mouting them on my laptop and everything seems OK. I was abl...

Re: Debian jessie image 1.0 released for Bubba|2 / B3

Thank's for the good work: it worked on my b3 which is now running Debian Jessie :-) Longer step was ... backup before reinstalling. Some stuff however is not completely functional: changing the network configuration in the install/install.ini file does not change anything. When booting the network ...

Re: Debian dist-upgrade on B2 & B3

I will release the jessie image and installer in a few days. The best way would be to reinstall your b3 using it. I will thus wait and test it as soon as you release it. Where we will you announce the release so that I do not miss it? Is the reinstalling process documented somewhere? Will it be the...

Re: Debian dist-upgrade on B2 & B3

I would like to move my b3 (wheezy) to jessie.

I just found your github repositories (https://github.com/Excito/).

What is the "good" way to upgrade (or reinstall to get plain jessie box) ?

Do I need to upgrade U-Boot first anyway ?

Re: best way to upgrade question

Did you succeed to upgrade your b3 to Debian wheezy ? If yes could you describe the procedure you used ? I am moving my data from my excito to a "homemade" Raspberry Pi 2 "equivalent" for the time of upgrading my b3. I wish to have a fresh clean Debian install on it (jessie). I w...

Re: Excito B3 brand and remaining B3 stock purchased !

Thank's for all the information. Sorry for the confusion on your status :-) It is a shame that no information appears on the Rodeus web page concerning b3 stuff. I will have a look to the development part of the forum knowing I would like to stick with Debian, and that I do not need the web interfac...

Thank's for the quick reply. I visited the excitostore and found a price of 154€ with "Europe accelerated" shipment. Here are some others questions following your answer and my visit : - Is the difference your announced price of 195 € and the 154 € price on the website due to VAT in my cou...

Re: Excito B3 brand and remaining B3 stock purchased !

Can anyone give us a status of all that.

Is this still possible to buy some b3 boxes ?

If yes, how can we do that and in which conditions (from where, with or without disks, at what price, etc.) ?

Thank's in advance for any informations.

Re: Minimal wheezy install images for b3

Is there some place (outside this thread on this forum) where someone describe clearly the process to follow in order to to upgrade a b3 installation to wheezy ?

The only page I found was http://e.lefant.net/2014/08/31/debian-w ... -excito-b3. Did anyone here tried it ?
