I came back to this today as I was a little puzzled, having previously run both pCP and raspberry PI OS on a ssd, and thinking that Ubuntu being popular with many as a server, the install should be straight-forward :rolleyes: I tried using the rpi imager to select and install the LTS but it would not start. I made an image on a sd card and was able to to install LMS and squeezelite. I copied that image to my Windows 10 Pro Desktop and used Balena-Etcher to burn it to a hybrid usb hard drive.... No luck with that :confused: I found a post with instructions to replace the some of the start up files in the /boot and also install new files to help the Ubuntu image boot.........No luck with that :confused: I then swapped to a Crucial sata ssd usb drive and repeated the process..........You know that definition of stupidity.... :p Any way much internet searching found this https://jamesachambers.com/raspberry-pi-4-ubuntu-20-04-usb-mass-storage-boot-guide/ and that cracked it :):) Code: -------------------- login as: ubuntu ubuntu@192.168.1.104's password: Welcome to Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS (GNU/Linux 5.4.0-1028-raspi aarch64) * Documentation: https://help.ubuntu.com * Management: https://landscape.canonical.com * Support: https://ubuntu.com/advantage System information as of Sun May 2 13:29:46 UTC 2021 System load: 3.55 Temperature: 46.3 C Usage of /: 0.9% of 219.86GB Processes: 142 Memory usage: 7% Users logged in: 0 Swap usage: 0% IPv4 address for eth0: 192.168.1.104 * Pure upstream Kubernetes 1.21, smallest, simplest cluster ops! https://microk8s.io/ 79 updates can be installed immediately. 33 of these updates are security updates.
