On an ARM board

Pre-requisites​

  • An ARM board with at least 512MB RAM
  • A power supply (either an adapter or a USB cable) for your board;
  • A microSD card: 16GB capacity (at least), class "A1" highly recommended (such as this SanDisk A1 card);
  • A reasonable ISP, preferably with a good and unlimited upstream bandwidth
  • An ethernet cable (RJ-45) to connect your server to your router.
  • A computer to read this guide, flash the image and access your server.
warning

Each ARM board is different and there might be specific instructions for your board.

Please follow the Armbian documentation first!

Download the Armbian image​

You should download the Armbian Bookworm (Debian 12) image from your vendor's or Armbian's website.

Flash the Armbian image​

Now that you downloaded the image of Armbian, you should flash it on a microSD card

Download Etcher for your operating system and install it.

Plug your SD card, select your image and click "Flash"

Etcher

Power up the board​

  • Put the SD card in your board
  • Connect your board to your home router via Ethernet
  • If you want to follow the initial boot, connect a screen and keyboard on your board.
  • Power up the board

Connect to the board​

Next you need to find the local IP address of your server to connect as root user via SSH with the temporary password 1234 (see the Armbian doc).

ssh root@192.168.x.xxx

Run the install script​

  • Open a command line prompt on your server (either directly or through SSH)
  • Make sure you are root (or type sudo -i to become root)
  • Run the following command:
curl https://install.yunohost.org | bash
warning

You might need to first install curl and ca-certificates by running:

apt install curl ca-certificates
خطر

Always ensure there's an s at the end of https.

ملاحظة

For advanced users concerned with the curl | bash approach: consider reading "Is curl|bash insecure?" on Sandstom's blog, and possibly this discussion on Hacker News.
