B3 as a security camera streamer ?

I have been using Raspberry PI's around my place to setup security and webcam streaming. One place I would like to monitor is close to my B3. However I discovered that the kernel on the B3 does not have the modules loaded to support USB video cameras. Anyone solved this ? Ironically the RPi's are so...

How many B3's out there ?

I often wonder how many B3's there are out there up and running ? My own B3 has been up and running on it's original HD continuosly since 2011. I often use it to test or play with new ideas and it still occasionally streams to my TV. But I have never had a problem with it and it must be my oldest bi...

Re: Debian stretch (9) image 1.1 released for B3

.....and it worked !! Thanks !!

Downloaded from the link in the first message on this thread, loaded onto a USB key. Power down then powered up pressing the B3 button and the B3 wiped this disk and installed Stretch. Took 1-2 minutes.

Thanks for your help ! :-)

Re: Debian stretch (9) image 1.1 released for B3

Thanks ! Here you go with the install.ini - I tried a couple of edits of the final block in [GENERAL] but nothing made a difference, also tried specifying a location for the image. This is just what was download as in the zip-file of the original link. The 'install' directory placed in the root of t...

Re: Debian stretch (9) image 1.1 released for B3

Still the same problem after formatting and unzipping the file on my B3. I have not changed the install.ini file at all ! But just checking, am I supposed to un-comment any of the lines or specify where the image is located ? Also, typically, how long does an upgrade take ? (I currently get 6 x quic...

Re: Debian stretch (9) image 1.1 released for B3

Good point ! I actually downloaded/installed on Linux, but used a GUI "wordpad"? tool to edit the file. I will try again using 'vi' or nano.

Actually, doing this on the B3 may be the wisest choice. :-)

Re: Debian stretch (9) image 1.1 released for B3

I will when I am home, but it was just the default install.ini except that I had un-commented "wipe = false" so that only the first partition would be formatted. I didn't make any other changes.

Arrrgg !!! I have been trying all weekend to get the PHP Bubba backup function in the UI working but with no luck. I have a USB stick in the back of my B3 which mounts OK, but when I try to create a new backup job in the Web Interface, it is never created. If I try to create a new job with the same ...

Re: Excito is hiring!

Sounds interesting ! I got Owncloud up and running on my B3, but the Android app is currently very flakey. Marketing the B3 as your own, secure cloud could be a great idea !
