Incus on raspberry pi

E: Unable to locate package incus

But I can install lxd via snap…

e.g.
snap install lxd

Which means I’m sticking to lxd for the time being…

This is pretty weak. Packages.

The debian incus packages start at bookworm but none for bullseye.

I have incus running on a Pi 3 Model B Rev 1.2 - this device is about ~6 years old. This is installed and running on Debian Bookworm (I deliberately picked Bookworm as it has incus support - earlier versions will require a lot more under-the-hood work to get it going). I don’t use Ubuntu, but I am sure Incus would work with that too.

It’s not a blindingly fast user experience, but then, neither is the base OS.

Until support is ended on bullseye I’m sticking with it… It’s my home server and non trivial to upgrade.

GitHub - zabbly/incus: Incus package repository has bullseye but sadly not for arm64 as we’ve been having issues building that particular combination.

It happens… When I rebuild my home server I’ll get everything into continuers to make migration to newer harder easier…

At work they use Amazon linux 2023 and CENTOS8 which also doesn’t have incus support…

LXD isn’t supported for these either but I can install via snapd, which should I have the time (unlike) might well do an Incus snap.

I have been running incus (from zabbly repo) on RADXA’s rockpi4c ARM embedded board that that is 2+ years old. I installed dietpi on it (debian/bookworm based). A great distro for embedded boards. There were times I had to reboot. I wrote this article on ovn network setup completely built on this embedded board ( https://tinyurl.com/rockpi4c ) IMHO, embedded boards are great to play around and geek out :slight_smile: This board doesn’t run vms though, only containers.
