Скачать или смотреть Raspberry Pi on a USB Drive

OLD and OBSOLETE - Just go to    • Raspberry Pi 3 Boot from USB Flash Drive   RickMakes video Much more streamlined and up to date for the latest information.



Run your Raspberry Pi off a USB Hard Disk instead of the SD card. Only have the boot sector on the SD card that is needed. Everything else runs on the Hard Drive.

Simple steps using the Adafruit script. Assuming you pay attention and make sure the USB device you want to run off of is sda. Could probably just do it from the Pi instead of ssh but I did not have a good keyboard so wanted to do it from my windows PC.

1. Format SD card
2. Write image to SD card.
3. Got Pi3 to boot.
4. Change password
5. Change host name
6. Put in router password on the pi GUI and ifconfig shows address
1. ssh works but it says key is not the same and won’t sign me in. This is because I had successfully done a ssh but had to redo the pi SD card. So it had a key that did not match.
2. telling me. @ WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED!
3. Add correct host key in /home/Lloyd Asus I7/.ssh/known_hosts to get rid of this message.
4. Nano does not work in cygwin – vi does. Open up know_hosts and remove 192.168.1.10 key, save file. Now ssh works!
7. Only WD 1TB Hard drive on USB hub. Check it is sda, it is.
8. Sudo apt-get install git-core – was already installed
9. Follow https://learn.adafruit.com/external-d...
10. Sudo git clone https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-...
11. Add sleep 2 right before mkfs to the script
12. sudo /home/pi/Adafruit-Pi-ExternalRoot-Helper/adafruit-pi-externalroot-helper -d /dev/sda
1. Worked until it said the disk partition was in use.
2. Changed to boot to CLI instead of Pixel – probably could have just unmounted the disk instead.
3. Try it again – worked
13. sudo /home/pi/Adafruit-Pi-ExternalRoot-Helper/adafruit-pi-externalroot-helper -d /dev/sda
14. Worked
15. sudo apt-get update
16. sudo apt-get upgrade
