Is it best to stick with CasaOS on a ZimaBoard or go straight for proxmox? Want to use containers and add firewall and pihole capabilities.

Will build a TrueNAS solution on another box with internal drives.

#zimaboard #proxmox #casaos

Thinking it is time to build a proper homelab and stop depending on some VMs on my QNAP TS-453A (which is getting a bit old now) and a cluster of RaspberryPi SBCs.

Like the look of the ZimaBoard but would be too constrained for TrueNAS.

Thinking a used HP Z440 Workstation with a xeon processor would be a good base.

I did not imagine this Frankenstein of a connection to my veteran scsi slide scanner would just work. Literally plugged it all in and VueScan found the scanner and produced an image. I was expecting many, many hours of troubleshooting for this to work. My digital hoarder tendencies that resulted in keeping a pci scsi card for multiple decades with no reasonable expectation of it EVER being used have now been vindicated.

Steve,

I'm about ready to pull the trigger on one of those #ZimaBoard #SBC computers you talked about in SN#892, but before I do, I was wondering if there is a way to set it up with #SpinRite as the boot OS, and still be able to network Remotely in to "view/control" the SpinRite display, instead of connecting up a keyboard and monitor?

I think you mentioned you had some remote control solution to talk to your "DOS" version of SpinRite...?

Since Pi' are still insane to get your hands on I am branching out. Got a Zimaboard today and I gotta say... Insanely easy to setup and I'm very impressed with the power of this thing! #selfhost #sbcs #rasberrypi #ZimaBoard #diy

Short test run with the antenna combiners and amplifiers for the loss of signal. Seems stable. Running an older version of KismetWireless Nightly builds. The rig has been on a shelf in parts for almost 2 months.

LoLz.

Worked on the antenna combiner and the mini amps needed.

Significant loss on the antenna combiner and RF amplification to the radios help eliminate that loss.

Initial test with basic antennas seems to be very solid. Need to bolt everything down and get it back into the car. #WiFi #WarDrive #LotusSys #MiniCircuits #RF #IntelNUC #ZimaBoard #Hak5WiFiCoconut #CollectAllTheWiFi

I’ve got a #zimaboard for tinkering and noticed this “know your ports” section in the documentation that is potentially useful to many hardware nerds so I’m sharing it.

Just pulled the plug on zimaboard after staring at the board sitting in my cart for a week. planning to use it as my pfSense device.

Well THAT is one way to make an impression! ✨💼👀

Kudos to the Pentoo Linux group for getting the the latest Linux Kernel running with MediaTek WiFi 6E radios...

That’s a wrap for 2022 and the @wiglenet #WarDrive last canon ball run for December. Just casually dumping 300k new #WiFi in Dec. to break 2M, get a 1M in 140 Days, and break the top 30 list. Been a busy two years. Thanks all for your help. #KismetWireless #IntelNUC #ZimaBoard

OK, That's all Folks.

My December #WarDrive @ArkFromWiGLE Canon Ball Run has been completed.

Dropped 320K new #WiFi into #Wigle for December.

Broke 2M Mark.

Grabbed 1M New WiFi in 140 Days.

Jumped to 29 on the chart as of today.

Thanks everyone out there.

I am aware that some find this "hobby" silly and such.. But a Hobby is a Hobby...

I broke the 2 Million Found/New WiFi into the #Wiglenet #Wigle Database and did 1 Million Found/New in 140 days.

The #WarDrive rig with 16 WiFi Radios, 32 antennas and the #Hak5 #Hak5Coconut bringing in another 14 Radios (on a single external antenna) has been amazingly stable with help from @kismetwireless in the Discord and software releases such as #DarkMode and #WarDriveOverride features allowing for a mapping only process to reduce over head for the CPUs.

I wanted to break 2M before Years End and I nailed it.

Any good guide to recommend installing your own Mastadon instance or server? (not sure on terminology) I’ve got a #ZimaBoard to install this on.
Anyone out there using this for friends and family only?

Wow.

I feel like it’s a Casey Kasem kinda Saturday. BusySignal just barely Into the Top 40.

But Dustin you said, how about portability ?

Oh. You thought I wasnt making anything portable?

Harbor Freight box, #ZimaBoard with squid 8 card WiFi 2.4-6Ghz and room for #hak5 #Hak5Gear WiFi Coconut…I have one. LoL.

Due to celeron CPU this might be best #WarDrive only.

The #ZimaBoard has on board eMMC settings for storage and they are for single edge clock and double edge clock speeds. Can’t tell if there are any concerns about using the double edge clock HS400 vs default HS200 - but here’s a speed test incase you wanted to see what the data rate benefits were.

The portable WarDrive rig and the at home WiFi monitor are on their way to getting fully running.
