Second round, this time the #HomeAssistant on my #RaspberryPi4 - I still had a 32-bit install and it was time to migrate. Support ends this year and #ESPHome already couldn't be updated any more.
It was relatively easy - create a #backup on old system, boot a new install and select #restore on the setup page.
It took a while to restore everything, and I got impatient, but after around 30 minutes it was finished and everything like before.

@louis @jimsalter to me it says more about said (#CCSS) #vendors when their software doesn't make #backups and #restore as simple as it could be.

Do you make backups? Do you run ZFS? Do you use Bacula? Do you use dd?

Your method is important for you. What's also important is testing how a restore works.

I lost a partition less than 30 minutes ago. I have a simple tgz backup of the important data on another drive, not an SSD, no a HDD.

I lost zero bytes of data.

Please make sure your backup and restore systems work.

When your recovery tool says the partition is lost, only your backup will save you.

In this small blog post I want to show how you can setup a backup task (Rsync Task) in TrueNAS while preserving the file permissions and ownership on the destination system.

Proxmox-NUT Homelab HOWTO - Step 7 : Setup Backup Endpoints / Backup / Restore

In this step we go over how to setup various backup sources in Proxmox. We backup a Windows VM, purge it and then restore it back from the backup. We cover topics such as backup modes and the scheduler.

Some adventures installing @openwrt@lemdro.id
@openwrt@lemmy.world on a #Google #WiFi "puck" (AC-1304)

If you follow the directions between the links: https://openwrt.org/toh/google/wifi
and the updated details in this thread
https://forum.openwrt.org/t/finally-installed-openwrt-on-my-google-wifi-ac-1304/183541/2
you can get #OpenWRT installed on those #Google #Wifi #pucks (AC-1304).

It is a bit of a challenge, since you are flying blind based on the light colors and blinking of the puck; along with the typical poor documentation of open source projects (as typical, written as someone is well familiar with the topic and process, rather than written in a #KISS for the #n00b).

Once installed, you can configure as #repeaters following this tutorial
https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/wifi/relay_configuration
and the video at
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bfmx5NjIWLQ.

Finally my Proxmox deployment is running with daily backup jobs using Proxmox Backup Server 3.3.2 on my Raspberry Pi.

It seems there is no issue with resources, but let‘s keep it running for a week and monitor.

Next step will be expanding the deployment with a remote backup location to sync with.

I‘m very happy with the build-in encryption option. Restore testing is also one of the upcoming tasks.

Part 3/3
I did some research online; most are telling to boot into safe mode but M$ removed the capability. So, I am a little lost on where to go next in getting Win10 or Win11 running on this.

Thoughts/insights are much appreciated. #lazyweb

Part 2/3
Though this has a 64-bit processor, let me try the Win10 x86 32-bit LTSP installer from 2019: and it worked! The install went fine, but it ran dog slow. I used the native browser to download and then upgraded the #BIOS to the latest for the W510 and everything was noticeably slow. Unfortunately, most of the tools I want to use are 64-bit so this version of Win10 is not really an option.
To test & try to troubleshoot, I installed the latest version of #Debian #Linux. The install went fine, and the user experience was much better than the 32-bit Win10 – no real noticeable slowness. Ok, Linux is an option – but not what I had planned for this laptop. Let me wipe the drive (getting rid of #GRUB) and retry installing Win11 or Win10 LTSP.
Now when I boot with either Win11 or Win10 LTSP #USBs the windows logo flashes and the dreaded black screen with blinking cursor appears. We don’t even get the option to install…. (Ugh!)
Currently I booted into #ShredOS and am wiping the drive as a load test.

Part 1/3
The continuing efforts with the #ThinkPad #W510:
A nice surprise is this has four (4) #DIMM slots, so I was able to upgrade the memory to 32GB (and tested out fine with #MEMTest86+ ver 7)!

Unfortunately, getting an #OS installed has been problematic. As I mentioned previously, to use this as my #workbench #laptop for testing, #imaging, and #wiping #HardDrives and #SSDs (leveraging that #eSATA port) all the manufacturer and optimal #opensource tools are on #Windows.
I started with the #Win11 LTSP: Booted up fine, initial install was fine – and the initial boot want to a black screen with a blinking cursor.
Ok, let me try #Win10 64-bit LTSP with the same results: Booted up fine, initial install was fine – and the initial boot want to a black screen with a blinking cursor.
