[Wayback/Archive] Setting Up a Raspberry PI with a German Mac Keyboard – Seaside Testing.
Reminder to self: figure out where parameters for /etc/default/keyboard are documented in case I want to use USB keyboards:

It was about 2 years ago that Jilles reminded me I had a flight case with gadgets too.
Back when I assembled it in 2018, I had big plans for showing private “cloud” container experimentation and gadget stuff at conferences. Then 2019 kicked in with rectum cancer.
So it was good that he helped me motivating to get it working again, especially as the time around assembling it so much fun and working on it brought back those days.
Here are the pictures:

[Wayback/Archive] Raspberry Pi And The Story Of SD Card Corruption | Hackaday is long and worth reading.
For me the most important bits are how to prevent SD card wear:
The first is always a good idea. It is the primary reason all our electronics live behind a UPS:
In addition, I posted my personal experience (Samsung microSD cards last way longer than SanDisk cards) on Twitter:
[Wayback/Archive] @hackaday I’m have been running a few Raspberry Pi systems with 8-32Gb micro-SD cards as web-dashboard with refreshes every few minutes or so: much write access. When using Sandisk (no matter the type) they last about a year, Samsung (no matter the type) cards last multiple years.

It killed immediately killed this (some pictures further below):

[WayBack] Rebooting a Linux server unattended – twm’s blog:
/sbin/shutdown -r now
Simple, but I keep forgetting where Linux has short/long command options and short/long verbs.

It looks like OpenSuSE has stopped supporting Raspberry Pi 1, so the best likely is to recycle it into a Pi-Hole as basically it’s been dead since mid 2017: [WayBack] Raspberry Pi 1B OpenSuSE Tumbleweed zypper upgrade problem · GitHub.

One occasion I had SSH throw a Connection Reset by Peer on my when was the SD-card of a Raspberry Pi started failing and the ext4 filesystem got mounted in read-only mode.
Then sshd was still listening on port 22, but since it could not write to disk any more, it threw a Connection Reset by Peer to the client.
It was on OpenSuSE Tumbleweed, but would failed just as well using Raspbian.
Lessons learned:

Many people use it that way. Which means I can put it on an old Raspberry Pi B+ revision 1.2 board (which Wikipedia indicates as the B 1+ in the Specifications table but as Raspberry Pi 1 Model B+ revision 1.2 in the schematics of connectors).
I might consider DietPi as distribution (which is Debian based) as it is even ligher.
See [WayBack] https://www.reddit.com/r/pihole/comments/6h39zr/is_a_raspberry_pi_1_good_enough_for_a_pihole/#divw0i5
One more note: I need to check out which Debian base name (which indicates the version) works best as there seemed to be a dnsmasq issue (not archived because discourse hatesdislikes the WayBack machine and Archive.is):
Like Apple, Android and Delphi, they use name based versions of which I always forget the order of. Luckily the source of the below table gets updated over time [2017 Archive.is, 2018 Archive.is] Debian releases and names – Electric Toolbox Debian releases are named after characters from Toy Story and are frequently referred to with the name rather than the version.:
Version Code name Release date Toy Story character 1.1 Buzz 1996-06-17 Buzz Lightyear 1.2 Rex 1996-12-12 Rex (the T-Rex) 1.3 Bo 1997-06-05 Bo Peep 2.0 Hamm 1998-07-24 Hamm (the pig) 2.1 Slink 1999-03-09 Slinky Dog 2.2 Potato 2000-08-15 Mr Potato Head 3.0 Woody 2002-07-19 Woody the cowboy 3.1 Sarge 2005-06-06 Sarge from the Bucket O’ Soldiers 4.0 Etch 2007-04-08 Etch, the Etch-A-Sketch 5.0 Lenny 2009-02-14 Lenny, the binoculars 6.0 Squeeze 2011-02-06 Squeeze toy aliens 7 Wheezy 2013-05-04 Wheezy the penguin 8 Jessie 2015-04-26 Jessie the cowgirl 9 Stretch 2017-06-17 Rubber octopus from Toy Story 3 10 Buster not yet released Andy’s pet dog 11 Bullseye Not yet released Woody’s horse Sid “unstable” The next door neighbour

Interesting as it has steps for both OpenSuSE and Debian each well suited for running on a Raspberry Pi.
