There are a few things that would make Pinn OS way better. There should be an option to upload custom IMG OS files. It would also be cool to have some of the OS to come pre loaded with the Google play store. My fingers are crossed.
I got PINN working quickly from this, so thank you for posting it. I was hoping PINN was like Berryboot, but it seems far more limiting. I'm running from a 1TB NVME drive and want to be able to multiboot arbitrary OSes, rather than only the ones offered in the PINN installation (which don't all work, Ubuntu panics during initial boot). Sadly, the once fantastic Berryboot has been abandoned for years. I'm still hoping someone picks it up and updates it for the Pi 5.
Seen they have Android 14 running on the RPi5, I'd love to see this with Play Store & Google Assistant both working. With the Option to keep Google Assistant always on in the background so if you say *_Hey Google_* it responds w/o the need to press a button And be able to play RUclips videos with Chrome with ad-blocker installed.
If you try Android make sure you use the konstakang version not the one in rpi imager. The one in imager will crash to reboot when you try to connect to wifi. And probably other things but I never got that far.
I have Android 14 running on my Pi5 with no issues. I had to install gapps and register the device with google. Now it's like a fully functioning tablet: Have Kodi, RUclips, VLC etc running with no issues. Only thing missing is the H264 encode/decode that I read they dropped hardware support for on the RPi5 stating "CPU should be powerful enough for SW Decode". While this might be the case, one application I have still tries to use the non existing h264 so the output for video is just black with the audio in the background. @leepspvideo , Would there be a way to force H264 SW decode on the RPi5?
So there's you with your nice bit of (mostly) open Raspberry Pi 5 hardware with the capability of running a nice open source Linux OS that loves you and your privacy - or you could run an AOSP-based version of Android that is also open source (until Google get their grubby paws on it) but instead you rush straight in with running your Google apps and hand the whole thing over to Google so they can turn it into a surveillance device that watches everything you do. Yet another "head in my hands" moment - why don't so many of you care about your own data privacy?
@@terrydaktyllus1320 I understand your view however if you carry around a phone you already gave up your privacy. 🤷🏻♂️ I'm using Android to test gaming on this device for fun and curiosity. Lol.
That's another great video. Thank you! ☺ One issue I would like you to cover in a future video is Audio Out on a Raspberry 5 (not to the monitor but to a speaker system). It can be done via a USB dongle or via the second HDMI port or via GPIO, I guess. You would be the perfect RUclipsr to cover this! 👍
I just did the eeprom update 2x with the sudo rpi-eeprom-update to check it then sudo rpi-eeprom-update -a to actually do it. It went to the Dec 6 then Dec 14 update
Is there any way to install custom .img files in PinnOS? Id like to add a custom RetroPie image if possible. If not, are there any other options for multi boot where i can add custom .img files?
Just an FYI, it seems that updating the Raspberry Pi OS as of today includes the Dec. 14th firmware, so no need to download and copy the file. Followed the instructions and PINN works fine.
could you explain more what pinn os is? do I understand correctly, that you could have Debian, Ubuntu and whatever else you might fancy running? what are the drawbacks? are there any? does it affect bootup time or is it just an option you could press shift on startup? is there any reason not to use it? sounds interesting - if I understand it correctly

I have tried this several times, I always select raspberry 5B on pinn as that is the only option with a 5 on it but when I complete the installation and try to run it, it just says "The installed operating system does not indicate support for raspberry pi 5?"
@video Hi Leep, yes and yes. Four times now I have followed your video and confirmed the bootloader is the latest, I have done install by copying the files from pinn lite zip same result and I have done a direct image to the card from Pinn img zip same result, I have been trying for hours and just get The installed operating system does not indicate support for raspberry pi 5?"
Hi leep a thought has just occured to me. I downloaded the img file directly from sourceforge with the link on git hub, and I also downloaded the zip lit file directly from git hub! I bet both of those are still for the RP4. Yes I just stuck the card in a RP4 and it works, I did not try the method on their web site where you push the buttons TODAY, I did that many times yesterday, but of course it would not work because of the Bootloader update which I knew nothing of then until I camr across your video today. I will try it now.
It definitely needs to be the beta version of Pinn. This video also shows the process using an Android phone First time Setup with an Android phone. Raspberry Pi 5 ruclips.net/video/H7DMzSvOWK0/видео.html @@stoptheirlies
@video Hi Leep, YES!!!!! well done mate that sorted it, well there is conclusive proof that the system on their website does not work for the PI 5 despite having a Pi 5 button, also the softwre has been updated TODAY and it still doesn damn well work on PI5. Thank you mate, keep em coming. Now then, what about using it with an NVME? Bob.
Now I will re-boot holding shift to get into Pinn! how are you supposed to do that if you only have a bluetooth keyboard that is not connected until the system is up and running?

I guess that's an Ubuntu bug. Mine got stuck due to unsupported display resolution. Had to reinstall Ubuntu. (Happened a week before with just Ubuntu, No PINN)

The method at 1:20 now gives the updated bootloader. No need to do the extra steps. Unless a newer version is in beta that you want to try.
I'm impressed that your latest 2 videos - both on PinnOS have come in at exactly the same length 🙃

Very impressive. It is amazing how so few SBC's don't have such a feature by default, especially those with SPI flash onboard.
Pi pushed that firmware update today, mine just installed it without using that command
Mine did the same thing :)
Love your videos. You make it too EZ. I would love to see a RPi 5 setup video with OPNsense. Of course I'm a Noob
Today i booted my Pi 5. There was a eeprom update to the version that you updated to.
I just did the raspi-config update and the latest official version is 14th Dec 2023. This is just 20 hours after the video was released
There is even a version that will run from a m.2 drive attached with a bit of fettling.
Running the bootloader from an m.2 drive?

pls help me when i install ubuntu on my raspberry pi 5 it stuck into login loop .At setup time it was fine but after restart it stuck in loop
Do you have the latest eeprom? Mine still seems to be working after a few reboots
I guess that's an Ubuntu bug. Mine got stuck due to unsupported display resolution. Had to reinstall Ubuntu. (Happened a week before with just Ubuntu, No PINN)
My Pi5 will be here in a week or so. Do you think there will still be a need to update the EPROM? I know, dumb question but I have to ask.
You will for Pinn. Other comments have suggested that the 14th Dec eeprom is now included in the normal update
Hi how do you add new os without loosing other os’s you have installed?
I’m not sure if you can
Any idea why pinn os doesn't even boot from the go on my pi 5 bro?
Did you download the latest beta version from the link not the latest version in the green box?
