RE: RPiTC3 alpha
I'm working with the Alpha 3 release.
Some suggestions (all from what I'm seeing) are : - remove the 4 raspberry pi logos from boot up. That's it for now. |

RE: RPiTC3 alpha
We're seeing the hostname staying the same when an image is made and then deployed out to multiple Raspberry Pi 3's. Is there anyway to have it auto generate the hostname every time like in previous builds so every machine gets a unique name and they aren't all the same?
Edit: It appears all machines using any of the images, the base alpha image included, are getting the machine name rpitc-fd061ded which doesn't match the MAC address of any of the Raspberry Pi's we have in house. |

RE: RPiTC3 alpha
The new image works exceedingly well. I too would like to have the old naming convention available as in the RPiTC_X image. My configuration management needs unique names in order to sign certs, and of course automagically would be better then manually naming dozens of machines. Could you point Nagios and I in the direction of how you obtained the MAC address based name at startup on the X image? Your help would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance.This is a feature I would also like to see very much! @matthew what kind of parameters do you monitor in nagios? or is it just "thin client is connected" and "thin client is not connected" or more like cpu, ram, ... Do you use snmp? |

RE: RPiTC3 alpha
@GDog, sorry for the confusion, I was referring to the forum user named Nagios. In the user environment I have, I would rely on user complaints to find issues with these thin client systems. But there are lots of points to monitor if desired, one of the most interesting/telling might be the CPU temp.

RE: RPiTC3 alpha
I found an acceptable solution:
1. Copy /etc/init.d/hostname.sh from the RPiTC image on an original model B to /etc/init.d/hostname.sh on the new RPiTC3 image. 2. Add the next line in the crontab, I added mine as root, but it might work from the rpitc account: @reboot /bin/bash /etc/init.d/hostname.sh |

RE: RPiTC3 alpha
So I'm working with the alpha build for the raspberry pi 3. Please forgive me if this is a common problem or I somehow missed an instruction, I'm new to RPITC altogether. The problem I'm having is two-fold. 1.) When I attempt to run the bashme script, it is unable to load any packages except the default. 2.) and more importantly even when I build with default packages and the script runs properly, when I reboot the RPITC builder shows again anyway. Any help is much appreciated.
