        @hustler A forum search for „raspberry“ was too much to ask? https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/3107/cloudron-on-a-raspberry-pi

          @necrevistonnezr I already viewed that post, but I don't understand it - are there any download links or instructions?

            @hustler If you read the whole thread you'd realise that basically there is no support for installing on a Pi unless you do it by yourself, by hand, tweaking configs here and there. Probably your best bet is to write @malvim who seems to have the most interest and has made the most progress. They might share their tweaked install scripts. Good luck!

              No.

                You can get a mini PC for around USD $120 on eBay that's a lot more powerful than an RPi will ever be. You're looking at i5-6500T or better and 8GB RAM. They have two DIMM slots, expandable up to 32GB. Power wise, they draw about 40W. They all have a slot of an 2.5" SSD drive + M.2 drive for extra storage.

                Search for these:

                • elitedesk mini (G2, G3)
                • thinkcentre tiny (M700)
                • optiplex micro

                RPi prices have skyrocketed. A new RPi 4 4GB board was $45 a while back, now you can sell it for over $100 used on eBay.

                  @humptydumpty Thanks! I shall have to look at that hardware.

                  I wonder why the Raspberry Pi has been going up in price so much.

                    To conclude this here as well. The main reason is not that Cloudron itself is not portable to the PI (or any other ARM system) however the app packages built with Docker are built for x86 and thus for ARM we would have to rebuild and fixup all app packages for ARM. I am not sure how multiarch builds in Docker have progressed, but generally we hope we can support ARM in the long run, so far demand was really not high within the Cloudron community.

                      @LoudLemur Supposedly supply chain issues and the extra demand. I think what triggered the demand is that you can officially boot from an SSD now without any hacks.
