Cumulus and the pi4 4gb

From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

Cumulus and the pi4 4gb

Post by tomcatuk »

I must just start by saying I have no experience with the raspberry pi as such, know nothing about any programming language but would just say I managed to download the pi image and get it working on my pi by following the instructions in the wiki, I did fall over a bit with the instructions with putty as was loading the wrong program but got there in the end...

I've not done the web side of things yet but something I have installed on the pi is the fan shim, now by following the install instruction's on their website which is here https://learn.pimoroni.com/tutorial/san ... h-fan-shim I managed to get it working but this was with an amateur radio iGate (again this was all set-up for me and just needed a few tweaks) is it possible to get it installed on this as did try but got a error message about "bash: Git: command not found...." no idea....
any help welcome..
Regards Steve

Their instructions assume you are starting with the full Raspbian image that includes git. You will need to install it...

sudo apt update
sudo apt install git
