@alefattorini We need a new tag : v7-beta2-arm

@mark_nl those are great news!!! Congratulations!
Now I must change all the repository maintenance scripts to host the alternative architecture
@mark_nl great work mate! iāve been waiting forthis
when you want, let me know how i can update my repo so i can play with my pi
Done.
Nice! Until now it only the base, I add a few appās and ill make a new tarball with a repo.
I renamed it to nethserver-arm
BTW itās aarch64 too
I donāt have a Raspberry Pi to try it, but this is an
Amazing contribution!!!
Fantastic!!! Good job
Hi @dz00te,
Progressing nicely, without major draw backs the repository is finished tomorrow.
Iād like to prep nethserver-arm-release and nethserver-mock to work out of the box,
is this base url oke?
baseurl=http://mirror.framassa.org/nethserver-arm/$releasever/base/$basearch
Really cool, does this require RPi3 or is a RPi2 ok too?
Yes itās ok for me. Tnx
It works on both, we still have to figure out the feasible applications/usage. Iāll like to hear your opinion once it is out here.
Well, sure thing, from my point of view, a RPi would be nice to have it work as an extension to a ānormalā Nethserver server, since IMHO, I donāt think having your DHCP server, or whatever other crucial service that has to run h24 7/7, would be a good idea to run on a RPi.
What i mean is, just to make a few examples:
Nethserver has Zoneminder? Raspberry could be its cameras with the camera module
Nethserver has Guacamole installed? Raspberry could be a ThinClient with a OpenVPN client autostarting on boot, entering any remote desktop just with the browser
Nethserver has Asterisk? Raspberry could have it too and become a remote branch for small offices, connected over a IAX trunk to the main PBX
Nethserver has Adagios? Raspberry could be a remote probe to poll data from
These are just a few ideas, will be fun to play with it
Well, here it is:

In the ./nethserver-arm/7/updates is a hidden (.nethserver-arm-groups.xml) group file;
a simple and stupid script i use to create a (local) repo is:
#!/bin/bash
repo_path="[local_path_to_repository]/nethserver-arm/7/"
grouplist_path="[local_path_to_repository]/nethserver-arm/7/updates/"
#Handy for a local repository on a nethserver-7 virtual host
#chown -R ftp:apache $repo_path

createrepo ${repo_path}ns-epel/armhfp/

createrepo -g ${grouplist_path}.nethserver-arm-groups.xml ${repo_path}updates/armhfp/
createrepo -g ${grouplist_path}.nethserver-arm-groups.xml ${repo_path}updates/aarch64/
I wanted to write some release noteāsā¦ iām tired so tomorrow
Your ideas are great, but are those modules available in ARM yet? @nrauso
Some release noteās to this Nethserver-7-beta2-arm-alpha1,
Once the public repositories are up thx to @dz00te
The installation is described in our wiki : ns-raspi
Donāt forget to put some beers in the fridge first , it takes a whileā¦
If you like to test (and a little bit of geek like me) you can open a second terminal and do a
journalctl āf
to see the progress.
There is a lot of testing to be done;
until now only basic functional testing is done, especially:
The choice of packages available is mostly motivated by the fun-factor:
Why sould we do it? Because itās possible!
@edi has good sugestion of feasible user cases;
but I have to say on my odroid-c2 (aarch64) it runs really snappy.
Have Fun
repositories are up, thanks again @mark_nl
just installed on a rpi2 as per wiki: all ok
if you have some ideas in how i can help in testing, let me knowā¦
Installing from your repoās works like charm!
Well see edit:
IIRC you liked it the last time, so iāv put it in again.
i have no experience in creating rpm or the Centos build systemā¦
Can someone point me in the right diretcion to start? (some how to, documentation, etc? )
Nexcloud can be run without problem on a raspberry
I like the following
Good to hear! Iād kind of hoped (in time) you could test the nethserver-nextcloud app on v7-beta2-arm
Even better to read this! Maybe I can help you, what are your intentions?
