    This saved me from loosing my sanity... I was about to give up on android all together, but this saved it by making it easier to install it... Thanks for the video!

    To start, thank you for having audio. It looks like a lot of people like to make videos and just have an on screen follow along type of tutorial. Also, thanks for speaking slowly and clearly. I still need to finish the video and apply what is being shown but already stoked that i stumbled across your tutorial.

      ExplainingComputers how can you add more os in berry boot because it keeps telling that the img file needs to be a squashfs file

  • @KingsPhotographySolutions

    warning for new berryboot users don't do sudo dist-update/upgrade. berryboot uses its own kernels, this type of update, updates the kernels to one's not compatible with berryboot and bricks your micro SD forcing you to format and start from scratch.
    the fault raspibian shows on boot is because berryboot manages partition space between the various OS's installed, so raspibian cannot resize the partition. raspi-config can also be unreliable on USB storage (sometimes thinks it's not on a pi) I'll edit when I remember my fix.
    thanks for the great video. more people should use berryboot, despite its small faults it's a really good.
    p.s. please look at the new pixel version of raspibian. :)

    Hi Chris
    I have been trying to install MotionEye OS from a downloaded image file but without success. I had given up on it and decided to do some experimenting with BerryBoot because I had seen this video some weeks ago. BerryBoot is fantastic and the installation is really easy as you have demonstrated but the best thing is it includes MotionEye OS as an operating system. So I gave it a go and it worked perfectly. Thank you very much for introducing me to BerryBoot.
    Best wishes
    Arthur

  • @DLiberator78
    @DLiberator78 Před 8 lety +2

    Another excellent video. I like the idea of BerryBoot, it is a useful tool if you want to test multiple operating systems on one memory card and I like the feature of being able to backup/restore and load different OS off a USB device. However for me I would rather have one operating system per memory card as multi-booting can become messy over time and if the card goes bad you lose all of your operating systems in one fell swoop which makes backing them up all that more important.
    Thanks for another fantastic Raspberry Pi video, looking forward to your next video.

  • @themasteradder7358

      Thanks. I try to keep as many viewers as possible happy, and normally this happens when I make videos on subjects I enjoy. Right now, I am trying to keep the channel going on a weekly basis as I focus on other stuff (like finishing a book). There then be more 'major' content -- including various build videos -- in November and December. There are lots of videos I want to make and that I think will be popular, but it all takes time! :)

    FYI I am unable to get Berryboot to work with wifi on the Raspberry Pi v3, Berryboot sees the wifi lets you select the wifi just gives an "Error connecting or obtaining ip address. check settings" , even if I give it a bad password I never get a bad password error this tells me Berryboot sees the connection but cant connect, also noticed after installing Ubuntu Mate you have to reboot mate before it will start seeing wifi but Berryboot never connects to wifi, wifi works perfect on all other operating systems I have installed on the v3 Pi Berryboot is the first not to work with wifi.
    Thanks for the Berryboot video am loving it.

    You probably know, but you can give the RPi a little more juice for the USB that will power some (but not all) USB 2.5 drives (I guess depending on drive current draw needs). My 500GB OMV NAS in RPi is just powered from the PI USB power source and runs like a dream!

    Nice! Very cool...dual boot from a SD card, very nice...now I can install Raspbian and Armbian on the same device.
    Would like to see a rudimentary command shell and/or a check partition for errors because I sometimes have issues with Armbian locking up (might be my non-name brand SD card) disregard...it's already in there
    Learned something new each and every day...great video!

  • @whoanelly-
    @whoanelly- Před 7 lety +1

    Hello, nice channel! been watch a few of your videos, nice work :) Quick question on using berryboot: Would this in theory be a
    "safer" way to boot your operating systems, from an SD corruption point of view? If I understand it correctly, berryboot would boot from the SD card, then say you choose to install another OS on a USB thumb drive that's connected then have it boot from there. If you were to "yank" the power cord or do an improper shutdown the SD card should in theory not be affected? I know that most linux operating systems dont like that to much, but can generally survive that. Thoughts?

    • @ExplainingComputers
      @ExplainingComputers  Před 7 lety

      You are right -- this will make it less likely to get a corrupt SD card, as the OS resides elsewhere. With Berryboot it is also very easy to make backup copies of your OS installs, so again protecting against corruption.

  • @bernardvincent4204

    I install Raspian on the SSD card using bootberry, but I notice it does not have a swap file. free -h shows zero swap size (used other tools to verify no swap file ). /etc/dphys-swapfile does not work on this configuration. I need to run opencv for my project so I need a swapfile. Can you help with the best approach to create swap file without dphys-swapfile on this configuration?

    Is it because Berryboot is meant to boot via microSD?

    Boot from usb ssd (sda) on a PI 3.
    I have the Element14 Pi Desktop mounted on top off the Pi 3. Don't forget to change your Pi 3 to boot into USB with command "program_usb_boot_mode=1" in your "config.txt" or test it with command "vcgencmd otp_dump | grep 17:" it repports back "17:3020000a" if the USB boot flag is set.
    Before installing or using Berryboot create a FAT32 partition on your ssd (usb stick) about 300MB, label it "BOOT". You can partition the ssd on your windows desktop by a usb cable connected to your win 10 desktop en create the FAT32 partition (with MiniTool Partition Wizard). After booting of the sd card and install all your systems, reboot into Ubunu Mate and copy all the files from the sd card (berryboot) to sda1 (BOOT). Remove sd card and reboot. Ready.

    I am curious what kind of camera you use to make your videos - all of your images, especially the closeups are very clear and crisp!

    • @ExplainingComputers
      @ExplainingComputers  Před 8 lety

      Almost everything is shot on a Sony HVR-V1E (a very old 3-chip camcorder now) but recorded from its HDMI to an Atomos Ninja recorder. All of my screen grabs also go into the Ninja. For close-ups, my secret weapon is adding a +2 close up filter on the front of the lens. This works on any camera, and allows focusing between 25 and 50 cm with full use of the zoom range on the lens (so far better than using a camera's macro mode). So very much old-school photography and optics are the key. Also a lot of light (usually 650w x2) to stop down the lens.

I have a raspberry pi 3b and 3b+ and I cannot ANY OS other than raspian to load on either of them..I have tried Berry boot, OSMC, ubuntu Mate and others and none of them will boot I have followed all of the directions I am finding on youtube and frankly am getting a bit frustrated. are the new pi's simply not compatible with the downloadable OS on Raspberrypi.org?? I am using a 32 gig samsung micro SD can you shed any light on this ?

    Hello! Again and again great videos explained super clear! Thank you!!!
    But how does it work with the Raspi Model 3B +?
    In another video, you talk about booting an operating system directly from a USB stick or SSD. I read on Google that you can flash the image directly on the stick
    and you do not need an SD card. Is that also possible with Berryboot? How does it behave?
    It would be great if I could do without the SD card and then run Berryboot on my USB stick or on my SSD disk ...
    The Raspi 3B + should do the boot from the USB stick much more stable than the Raspi 3B.
    And how does the boot from the network work on the Raspi3B +? Is it possible to set up a NAS on the Fritzbox to start the operating system from there?
    Maybe you can make a video about installing the Raspi 3B + which handles booting a system with Berryboot from USB, SSD or network.
    (Sorry for the possibly worse google translator English ... ;-)
