Hello everyone! I’m trying to install the Home Assistant operating system on a virtual machine embedded in Zima OS.
I don’t have a native Zima device, but a platform with an Intel N150 processor. I downloaded the image from the HA website, unpacked it, uploaded it to the device, selected setup, and the installation hangs every time it boots. I let the installation run overnight, but nothing works. Can anyone in the know tell me what I’m doing wrong?
I haven’t used home assistant but wondering if there is a difference between you intalling via the zvm when its available as a docker image on the app store ?
HA: Docker is very limited. Yes, it sees some of my Tuya devices, but the integration with Xiaomi is simply terrible. Half of them don’t load, some crash, or don’t install.
Unfortunately ZVM is still pretty limited and needs some work. dont think you are doing anything wrong but home assistant isnt the only OS thats still a little flakey at this moment in time to install using zvm.
Yes, I understand that ZVM is not stable, it just worked for someone, I saw a post about it on this forum, my settings are the same, but maybe there is some other nuance.
I ran Home Assistant OS on ZVM for 2 months before migrating it to bare-metal (NUC 8).
@funinthesun , looking at your screenshot I see that you used the .vdi image. I used the .qcow2 image also available here, for my setup. I also selected “UEFI” for Firmware.
I don’t know if this is your issue or not, just thought I’d share what worked for me.
This is what my settings looked like at the time (HAOS version has updated since)
