Cannot reinstall Home Assistant

After some years running Home Assistant on DietPi, I had some issues with Home Assistant and tried to reinstall Home Assistant with dietpi-software reinstall id 157

The installation is stucked on Installing Python-3.8.8… for some hours now and I tried several times.
What can I try to reinstall? Thx for advice…

I guess it’s same issue as this one https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/4372

Thx! This solved my issue.

Boy howdy I bet that poor maxed out RAM SBC could benefit from ZRAM compression just for a little bit of SWAP space

However his problem was solved, but I bet a bit more RAM/SWAP couldn’t hurt

this has nothing to do with RAM/memory. Simply pyenv init no longer sets a PATH. This will be corrected on next release.
