Raspberry Pi 4B, 64bit Lite OS

I previously installed Anthias and it was working well. It stopped working for an unknown reason and I figured that I would just do a quick re-image to get back up and running.

The documentation has been … problematic. No image is available in the Raspberry Pi Imager any longer. There is no pi/raspberry login now. After learning the magic ctrl-shift-x Advanced settings key combo I got the OS to install and was able to SSH successfully. I updated the OS, rebooted, then ran the installation command as per the docs [bash \<(curl -sL [https://install-anthias.srly.io](https://install-anthias.srly.io))] and saw a number of errors scroll by during the installation process. Afterwards I have a screenly directory with nothing in it.

I remember this being an easy installation and setup using the image. What changed and how do I find up-to-date documentation? I’ve searched this forum but only see comments about the new RaspOS Lite having many changes. I’m guessing the docs haven’t caught up yet?

Is there a new procedure to install Anthias on a Rasp 4B?

Apologies, I’m admittedly very frustrated by the documentation.

@chillburgh

- Thanks for pointing those out. I agree, there are parts (most of them) that needs work.
- A new release — [v0.18.7](https://github.com/Screenly/Anthias/releases/tag/v0.18.7) — has recently been created. You can download a Balena-based image that you need from there; for instance, [https://github.com/Screenly/Anthias/releases/download/v0.18.7/2024-03-14-raspberrypi4-64.zip](https://github.com/Screenly/Anthias/releases/download/v0.18.7/2024-03-14-raspberrypi4-64.zip). You can image it using balenaEtcher.
- Anthias images has been brought back in the Raspberry Pi Imager.
- Recent changes also allows for installing Anthias on Pi OS Lite running Bookworm (at least for Pi 3 and Pi 4).

Moving on, feel free to list things that you’d like to include in the documentation. You can also create a pull request or a GitHub issue if you want, stating what needs to be added or what needs to be restructured.

**EDIT:** I created a GitHub issue for this matter. Don’t hesitate to put some comments here: [Overhaul the documentation · Issue #1870 · Screenly/Anthias · GitHub](https://github.com/Screenly/Anthias/issues/1870).
