I recommend that you try R-Studio, it’s commercial software but I think they have a trial available. It specifically supports raid recovery on multiple file system types. The full version is pretty cheap as well.

Sorry to say but those soldered joints are very poor. The solder clearly hasn't flowed from the pin to the pad on the PCB. When soldering you need to ensure both the pad and the pin are sufficiently heated before applying solder to the joint. I would recommend getting hold of some Veroboard if you c...

Hi All, Using ideas from pi-gen and the Hypriot project, I have composed some scripts to enable the building of a working Raspberry Pi Image. You can change settings such as the OS variant you want to build within the build_sysroot.sh file. To modify what packages are installed edit the chroot-scrip...

I have tidied it up, just running it to make sure I haven't knackered it then I will post a link.

Kilograham, Due to a bug, debootstrap doesn’t build a buster sysroot without using a 32bit host. You will get strange issues such as SSL problems like you are having. To fix the problem either use a 32bit host, or do what I do and that is to use docker in a 64bit environment but with an i386 image....

I would fully expect dismal performance. The usb ports and ethernet are all connected to a single controller on the SOC, you only have 1gb of ram and using software raid. I may be wrong because I have never tried, but I would think your idea is a non starter, well with any kind of acceptable perform...

It certainly has more than enough "control" but in terms of driving motors and interfacing with sensors, I personally would use a Motor Hat which is specifically designed for the job.

Something like this one...

1. Install these dependencies into your raspberry pi sysroot: libegl1-mesa-dev libgbm-dev libgles2-mesa-dev mesa-common-dev . Not all of these may be strictly required, but this is what worked for me. The simplest way is to do it on a Raspberry Pi and then download the card image back to your PC. I...

Not quite sure what you are trying to do, but in terms of building the kernel and the packaging it into a deb file, I suggest you take a look at the Hypriot project on github, in particular there kernel building scripts which spit out a deb file as the end result. https://github.com/hypriot/rpi-kern...

The Broadcom EGL implementation does not work on Pi 4 due to it being a different GPU. This is why Qt's brcm-eglfs platform integration does not work. Try using the mkspec for eglfs-bgm, it might work with fake KMS mode that Pi 4 uses. There is already a mkspec for it: https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qt...

So, are the devices you want to track the location of all the same? or are you trying to track multiple types of devices?

Obviously what ever device is being tracked is going to need software to send it's location co-ordinates back to the server/pi.

This evening I have tried my newly built image (buster) on my trusty Pi 3b+ and it works just fine. So I think I can rule out the buster side of things. In order to get it working on the Pi 3b+ I have always needed to preload the libraries which I do with.... LD_PRELOAD="/opt/vc/lib/libbrcmEGL.so /o...

Do you really need newer Qt5 thant 5.11 that is in Buster ? shouldnt QML run quite well with opengl as backend and not necessarily need eglfs ? (I havent got a Pi4 yet so havent had time to experiment myself ) I haven’t actually tried that yet. Historically using the version that comes with the OS ...

Hi All, Has anyone managed to cross compile QT for the Pi 4 yet? I am trying using my usual recipes but at the moment it is hanging the Pi whenever I launch things like qmlscene (I am using EGLFS). I suspect it's to do with the VC drivers, I can never seem to get my head around the VC side of things.

I use chroot to make changes on my PC and can then convert it into an image which works on the Pi. Suggest you take a look at pi-gen which is the official tool used to produce the images for the Pi. It also uses chroot to make changes to the filesystem. It may be overkill for what you want but it sh...

A system called Docker will solve that problem for you.....

Settings are in summary stored all over the place! For your usage case I would configure the OS as you want it and then simply create an image of the pre-configured SD card.
