To get Windows 10 running on a Raspberry Pi is actually quite easy, but right now there are a couple of limitations that we know of, and probably a couple more that we don't know about yet. But we wanted to get this out there so our community could start playing with it and help us improve upon what we already have. This was taken and expanded from our instructions on how to get started with Eden on Github.
EVE on Github.
Limitations:
- need to run it via RDP or VNC
- Not sure if the RPi's Bluetooth or WiFi is working
What you will need
...
:
- RPi 4 B+ 8GB (4GB will work)
- 128 GB SD card (at least 32 GB)
Networking cable(native WiFi is now working!)- Laptop (these instructions are for a Mac, and we will soon improve them for Windows and Linux, but you probably can figure it out for PC or Linux)
More Detail and where to get the items
- RPi 4 B- 8 GB is better, 4 GB will work, but it is slow. If you use 4 GB, you will need to lower the GB given to Windows below.
- This kit has everything that you need, minus the SD card
- 32GB SD card (at least), you will want a fast one for a camera, this one is 128 GB
Networking Cable(Native WiFi is working)- WiFi name (SSID) and password.
You will need your RPi to be plugged into a network at least to start off. I plugged mine into a small 4 port router, and that is plugged into a wireless repeater for my home wifi.
What to do if you have questions
Don't you hate it when you try to do a tutorial and you get stuck or something isn't clear? We do too. Thus, if this happens, please visit us on our Slack channel LF Edge #eve-help and ask your question. Since we are a community, we just ask that if you see a question that you can answer, that you do that too.
And while you are there, go to #eve or #eve-rpi and tell us what you building.
...
- On your computer, navigate in your terminal application to the location where you would like place EVE and Eden
- Clone Eden's github
git clone https://github.com/lf-edge/eden.git
cd eden Build Eden
make clean <--This cleans up if you have already built something and does nothing if you haven't
make build- Set Configuration
There are a couple of ways that you could do this. Here are a couple of options. Let's start with WiFi
A. No WiFi
./eden config add default --devmodel
RPi4RPi4
B. With WiFi
./eden config add default --devmodel RPi4 --ssid <mywifinet>
//no quotation marks around the SSID unless there is a space in the SSID, the password will be asked for later
If you would like to run the Xen hypervisor instead of the default kvm, after doing one of the above, add this:
./eden config set default --key eve.hv --value xen
- Build the EVE image
./eden setup
This is the step that will ask you for the password to your WiFi.
When it is done, Eden will output information about the EVE certificates and the SSID and password that you entered. It will also give you the location of the live.img image that you will put on the SD card. - Start Eden
When you are ready, start Eden./eden start
Copy the Image to the SD Card
