I received my NextCloud Box, yesterday, but I have the Raspberry PI 3 not 2. I saw the statement on nextcloud.com/box that Raspberry PI 3 support is estimated to be available this month, November 2016.
Is there an update on the status? Is there a github repo to monitor or a web page? How will current box owners obtain an image?
My Nextcloud Box currently runs with a Raspberry Pi 2.
If I want to replace that with a Raspberry 3, will I need to install all from scratch and sync the files again, or is there a chance I can upgrade and keep the synced files on the harddrive?
The URL you provided, how does that provide an install image for an sd card? Remember I don’t have a PI 2 so I don’t have the option to use “snap” until I have a working base OS. I have the original and unmodified media that shipped with the box, but I assume a image is going to need to be provided for download by PI 3 owners.
oparoz, anxiously awaiting its availability, but with the holiday, I expected delays.
There is currently no download. I think oparoz told this week on the forum somewhere, that the release for RPi3 is planned on Dec 9th. Once it is ready, there will probably an announcement on the forum.
Friends, with regards to Pi3 support - we promised December 9, we promised a week later but sadly we still haven’t found a good solution for what we’re trying to do (make it super easy to connect to a box without knowing it’s IP address).
While we keep working on a solution, probably coming in January now, we are discussing if we could publish the current work-in-progress as a beta/test version for those able to use SSH themselves. I will keep you updated on that conversation!
More than happy to download an image, install, test, and provide feedback. Heck! If I understood your challenge, be happy to spend a few hours working the problem to provide potential solutions.
