There is an ARM and AMD\/Intel (x64) version of each app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">1.01 Debian: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.debian.org\">https:\/\/www.debian.org<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">1.02 VirtualBox: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.virtualbox.org\">https:\/\/www.virtualbox.org<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">1.03 Visual C++: <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/cpp\/windows\/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170\">https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/<\/a> (Look for the \u201cVisual Studio 2015, 2017, 2019 and 2022 section).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">1.04 Once downloaded install &#8220;Visual C++&#8221; and then &#8220;VirtualBox&#8221;.&nbsp; The Debian ISO file is for the next step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 2: Install Debian<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/ko-fi.com\/V7V2G9O87\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" height=\"36\" style=\"border:0px;height:36px;\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.ko-fi.com\/cdn\/kofi2.png?v=3\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Buy Me a Coffee at ko-fi.com\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.01 Open &#8220;VirtualBox&#8221; and select New.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.02 Give your VM a name: \u201chomeassistant\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.03 Select the pulldown on ISO image and select \u201cOther\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.04 Select the download Debian ISO &#8211; This will be in your download folder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.05 Click on \u201cSkip Unattended Installation\u201d this will stop the installation from setting up a desktop environment that we will not be using.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.06 Set the base memory.&nbsp; This will work with 2GB however my advice would be to set it to 4GB or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.07 Processors ideally set this to 2 as a minimum.&nbsp; If you\u2019re not going to use the PC for anything other than Home Assistant I would set this to 75% of what\u2019s available to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.08 The Virtual Hard Disk is where Home Assistant Supervised will keep all files and history.&nbsp; I Have Rana system for 6 months with only 64GB however I would recommend that you set it to 120GB as a minimum this way you don\u2019t have to change anything later if you run the system for a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.09 Click \u201cFinish\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.10 Click \u201cSetting\u201d, and \u201cNetwork\u201d and change the Network Adaptor from \u201cNAT\u201d to \u201cBridged Adaptor\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.11 Click \u201cOK\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.12 Now Start the VM<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Follow the install process inside of the VM window. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.13 Hostname is the name of your computer and could be anything: homeassistant<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.14 For Domain Name if you are already using this in your home set this as you normally would, if not then you can make one or just press return to skip: ha.home<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.15 Your root password and user password should be different.&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.16 The user name I\u2019m using here is \u201csmlp\u201d you will need to change this where needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.17 For the Partitioning method use: \u201cGuided &#8211; use entire disk\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.18 Select the disk to partition, you should only see one option<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.19 For the Partitioning scheme you can use any option here but I used: \u201cSeparate \/home partition\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.20 Select \u201cFinish partitioning and write changes to disk\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.21 Write the changes to disk?: \u201cYes\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.22 For Scan extra installation media? Select: \u201cNo\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.23 For the Debian archive mirror select your country and then the preselected option that shows. In my example: the United Kingdom, <a href=\"http:\/\/deb.debian.org\">deb.debian.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.24 If you are using an HTTP proxy you will already have the information for \u201cHTTP proxy information\u201d if not just press: \u201cContinue\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.25 Participate in the package usage survey? This is up to you: \u201cYes\u201d or \u201cNo\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.26 Under software to install:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Deselect \u201cDebian desktop environment\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Deselect \u201cGNOME\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Select \u201cSSH server\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Select \u201cstandard system utilities\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.27 Install the GRUB boot loader to your primary drive?: \u201cYes\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.28 Device for boot loader installation: Select the \u201cVBOX\u201d device listed<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.29 Installation complete: Continue<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">2.30 The VM will now reboot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 3: Get Ready to Install Home Assistant<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">First, get the IP address for the system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">3.01 Login user your username and password setup in the installation process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">3.02 Get the system IP address:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>ip a<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Your address will be shown under the \u201cBROADCAST\u201d section, not the \u201cLOOPBACK\u201d section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">My ip shows as: 192.168.1.186\/24<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Discard the \u201c\/24\u201d so my IP is 192.168.1.186<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">3.03 Now switch to root and install Sudo.&nbsp; Having this will help with being able to follow along more easily with guides and tutorials from other websites in case you want to do more with the system at a later date.
