Saw the announcement yesterday for Hassbian 1.2.1 and got super excited?
|
||||
|
||||
Today we'll flash the latest Hassbian to a Raspbery Pi Zero W.
|
||||
**With an added bonus** that besides for a usb cable for power, there's no need for any cables!
|
||||
|
||||
What you'll need:
|
||||
- a Raspberry Pi Zero W (an amazing tiny computer with built-in wifi)
|
||||
- a microSD card
|
||||
- some source of USB power
|
||||
- wifi
|
||||
- a desktop or laptop
|
||||
|
||||
Let's get to it!
|
||||
|
||||
First, download the Hassbian 1.21 image from [here](https://github.com/home-assistant/pi-gen/releases/tag/v1.21).
|
||||
|
||||
Unzip it.
|
||||
|
||||
Flash it to the microSD card. (if you need a flash tool, try [Etcher](https://etcher.io/))
|
||||
|
||||
When the flashing finishes, remove it and plug it back in.
|
||||
You should see a drive called "boot".
|
||||
|
||||
Right in there, not in any folders, create a file called wpa_supplicant.conf.
|
||||
|
||||
The contents of the config file should be something like this:
|
||||
(You may have to adjust for your config, hints [here](https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/wireless/wireless-cli.md) )
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
network={
|
||||
ssid="YOUR_WIFI_NETWORK_NAME_HERE"
|
||||
psk="YOUR_WIFI_PASSWORD_HERE"
|
||||
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Next stick your card into the Raspberry Pi Zero W, and plug it in.
|
||||
|
||||
After about a minute, use your ssh client to connect to hassbian (or hassbian.local from a mac), with the username pi. The default password is raspberry.
|
||||
|
||||
It's a good idea to change the password. To do so, use the `passwd` command.
|
||||
|
||||
Next, type the following two commands into the ssh console:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo systemctl enable install_homeassistant.service
|
||||
sudo systemctl start install_homeassistant.service
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Wait about 15 - 20 minutes and Viola! you have your home assistant on your pi in 30 minutes.
|
||||
|
||||
To try it out, go to [http://hassbian:8123](http://hassbian:8123) or [http://hassbian.local:8123](http://hassbian.local:8123) if you're using Mac
