    Finally, a bit more news!

    The update is, as always, good to see. It's great to see so many components (both physical and in code) that will one day make the Pyra into a more refined product. For those of us that were there at the beginning of the Prya like I was... The world is a different place than it was when the...

    Expand Pyra OS on SD card

    Aaaahhh. Ok. Never heard of the install-img.sh script before. I was just using etcher on a regular computer. Thank you so much! I'll use that from now on.

    Expand Pyra OS on SD card

    If someone could help me with how they were able to do this, I'd really appreciate it. While I've expanded plenty of partitions before, clearly I'm doing something wrong here because I can't boot off of it after doing so.

    Expand Pyra OS on SD card

    Well, I tried ye olde gparted on the Pyra itself (booted from emmc) but it didn't seem to know how to work with that format of partition. I tried it on a more modern linux OS and it says that it resized it successfully, but the Pyra won't boot from it afterwards. (Green logo of death.) This is...

    Expand Pyra OS on SD card

    Hey, all. I appreciate the ability to easily make a SD card loaded with Pyra OS in order to test things without risking borking up the main OS. But the system partition is never expanded to take up the full card, which can limit how much you can do with it. Is there any way to expand the f2fs...

    What dit you use your Pandora/Pyra today/the last few days

    Well what do you know, there´s an ARM port of Joplin Desktop after all. It´s unofficial, but the appimage started right up on my Pyra. https://github.com/MichaelDavidHarry/joplin-armv7l

    What dit you use your Pandora/Pyra today/the last few days

    That would be fantastic when it works, and with Box64 on the Pinebook Pro as well. I’ve tried extracting appimages before, but typically I get stuck with it wanting some lib file. The majority of non-ARM Linux software I hope to run winds up in appimage format these days, with little to no...

    What dit you use your Pandora/Pyra today/the last few days

    Joplin is a notebook application similar to Evernote or OneNote, but it’s cross-platform, free, and allows you to sync your notes using multiple different clouds storage options. It’s possible to get the Desktop application running on 64-bit ARM devices like the Pinebook Pro if you look around...

    Using Box86 on the Pyra

    I saw Box86 on the apt repo, but haven’t been able to run anything with it. Guess I should follow this instead for a more up-to-date version? Either way, this is a fantastic tool!

    What dit you use your Pandora/Pyra today/the last few days

    All sorts of stuff since I got my Pyra. [emoji1] •Emulated Dreamcast for the first time ever, and played Sonic Adventure 2. •Got the Raspberry Pi version of Pico8 (“_dyn” executable) running and played a few games. (The I and II keys are mapped as action buttons on Pico8 by default.) The Pyra...

    Pyra #163 shipped on the 8th! Man, it’s a surreal feeling. Edit: One-frame movie, as requested. ETA is tomorrow!

    My Pyra’s in this picture– and I love it. Cheers for a well-organized assembly!

    Just a quick status report video

    Oof, ok, that’s understandable. I’ve waited this long, after all. I remember thinking in February that it’ll be cool to have my Pyra before my second child is born. Now, well, it’s going to be a close call. [emoji28] Even so, I’m grateful for the store and other factors that have allowed ED to...

    Should I have received my final order eMail already?

    I think I saw in the “more rooms” thread that they couldn’t start assembling more until the new space was set up, which I think happened this week. I am cautiously hoping that some people will start getting shipment news before the end of the month.

    PineNote - eink reader

    Same. [emoji28] I jailbroke my Kindle Paperwhite 3 right away, but it was always a bit disappointing what you could actually do with it. There’s some android eink devices, but they’re not for everyone. I’ve had an irrational desire for an open eink device for some time now. This looks like it’ll...

    Should I have received my final order eMail already?

    Mine hasn’t been shipped yet either, nor have I heard anyone say theirs has from the latest batch. I wonder if they will go out all at once or as they are done? Hopefully things are going smoothly with the assembly and the testing. I’ve been checking far too often, hoping for a shipping notice...

    Should I have received my final order eMail already?

    Order 163 placed for a black chrome mobile unit, and a case to carry it in. [emoji6] Thanks ED for a pleasant checkout experience where my collection of vouchers not only all worked, but were applied all at once without breaking the store. Can’t believe this day has finally come. [emoji16]

    Should I have received my final order eMail already?

    That’s some really encouraging news! If lots of orders can get shipped out, maybe the next round of emails can be sent soon. Either way, enjoy your unit!

    First information for new Pyra owners (FAQ)

    Yeah, some images are like that for systems where you can’t just boot an iso burned to a flash drive or DVD. I have a Pinebook Pro, and it’s the same there. In the Pyra’s case, the system images are here: https://packages.pyra-handheld.com/images/buster/ with the latest one as of now being...
