Bubbagen Live-USB for B3 version 1.18 (Gentoo Profile 23)
Hi, I've just released version 1.18 of the Bubbagen live-USB image for B3 on GitHub. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gordonb3/cache/master/Bubba/bubbagen-screenshots.jpg What is new? Well, nothing really. And at the same time everything. Shortly after the 1.17 release in which I took a partial adv...

Gentoo Live-USB for B3 (Systemd, Profile 23)
Hi, While it has proven to be impossible to maintain a full working Live-USB for the Bubbagen system using systemd init ¹) the switch to Gentoo's Profile 23 seemed to important to let pass and so together with me publishing Bubbagen version 1.18 I have added a "vanilla" Gentoo on B3 System...

Re: Debian bookworm (12) image 1.0 released for B3
I only can install Bookworm with 10Gb space. I want to use the whole disk with Debian bookworm. As stated in the install.ini file : ## size (default: 10; minimal 8): size of system partition to create in GiB (if applicable). Use 'full' to use ## all the available space. You need to set size=full in...

Re: Bubbagen live-USB for B3 version 1.16 revision 1 (Gentoo Linux 6.1.41)
I ran some tests and it turns out the the fallback address method doesn't really work as expected (any more) One of the things I noted is that the DHCP client does not execute the exit hooks when it issues the fallback address. It also turns out that the DHCP server is in fact not started when the f...

Re: Bubba Server Install images
My suggestion is that you simply clone your current disk rather than start from scratch. Since the Bubba series has always used 'green' disks there should not be a real issue finding a disk with the same size as these are still pretty standard in USB enclosures. You could in fact buy one of those an...

Re: B3 - HDD died, switch to SSD
Obvious I run Gentoo :roll: I actually initially started making the Bubba packages compliant with newer Debian but I found creating and maintaining Debian packages way too complicated to my taste. The original leg work for the Gentoo image was done by a girl who identified as Sakaki, who also create...

Re: B3 - HDD died, switch to SSD
The comment about SSD is not completely accurate. Hardware wise there is no limitation, however U-Boot must recognize the drive's firmware in order to be able to boot from it. This is usually not the case with modern price friendly SSDs. The community U-Boot should be able to recognize a lot more dr...

Re: Bubbagen live-USB for B3 version 1.16 (Gentoo Linux 6.1.12 Stable)
So what's the correct procedure to update the system? The recommended way is to use Sakaki's `genup`. The manual alternative is to use: eix-sync emerge -1avuND --with-bdeps=y @world You may be prompted that some packages reference libraries for which newer versions have been installed. This notably...

Re: Problem with shutting down the system

Re: Bubbagen live-USB for B3 version 1.16 (Gentoo Linux 6.1.12 Stable)
Hello Gordon, As I own more than one b3, I tried to use your Gentoo Linux on my second one. Since I want to install the system I looked at the script install_on_sda.sh. I installed a fresh/new SSD into the b3! So there no previous installation on that disk, and booted from USB A lsblk; df -h result...

Re: Debian bookworm (12) image 1.0 released for B3
Violet/purple LED means that as far as u-boot is concerned everything is okay. If it doesn't recognize the disk the LED will turn red, i.e. with the original u-boot it will, but I would seriously doubt that this could recognize a 4TB SSD. So I'm guessing that you already have the community u-boot an...

Re: Debian bookworm (12) image 1.0 released for B3
Although there is a power symbol next to it, it's actually not a power button. It requires an app to detect its state and do something in response Technically you're right ; From an hardware perspective, the rear button is a GPIO-wired generic key. However in the B3 DTS it is marked as a power butt...

Although there is a power symbol next to it, it's actually not a power button. It requires an app to detect its state and do something in response ¹. Thus, once the LED turns green you can hold it for as long as you want but it won't do anything until the system is fully booted and bubba-buttond dae...
