DietPi

Firstly, I was never a developer for this thing so I don't know its ins and outs completely. Secondly, the site basically says its a distro. It's a Debian based OS. That's a distro. Whether you want to call it Debian with scripts or not , I couldn't care less. The point of this thread is feedback. C...

I've tried ext4, NTFS AND freaking exFAT. Copy speed absolutely sucks. I'm using a Raspberry Pi 4 with 4GB of RAM. It has Gigabit Ethernet and is connected to an Asus AC68U. My harddrive is a 2TB 7200rpm USB 3.1 drive. It's max copy speed is 120MB/s. I'm trying to copy to my Laptop which has an Inte...

Nvm, seems it works. It just took a long time, like a really, really long time. htop wasn't showing any CPU activity but somehow it took over 30 minutes.

Hi, Please considering replacing both the current ftp clients we have in dietpi-software with this one: https://www.pureftpd.org/project/pure-ftpd/ It is a clearly better alternative than both the unsecure ftp clients that are offered with dietpi. It's also available in dozens of different languages...

Title. How to reboot the Raspberry Pi 3 safely? That is, almost every time I've run "reboot now" it kills my installation and the Diet Pi won't reboot. It's annoying that there isn't a safe reboot function in dietpi-launcher or something...

Replicated this issue across 3 machines.

Well I fixed it myself. The problem was using the exFAT filesystem for my external hard-drive. I reformatted it to ext4 and well, the results speak for themselves:

16/09/19 - v1.1 Updated and made a lot of the steps easier and reduced the chance you'll run into errors when setting up. 15/12/19 - v1.2 Fixed some typos, made very minor edits. My install ran fine for 3 months exactly without getting any errors. For some reason Wireguard stopped working but with a...

A fan will absolutely fix it. My temps went from well over 66C to under even 36C with a fan and heatsink combo. But I got a very good fan. A 5V Noctua.
