Hi Rachel community,
First post on this forum!
I am based in Africa where internet is over expensive, and so I am installing Rachel on my Raspberry Pi 3 from scratch (not using the 64Gb image that I can not afford downloading).
Here are the steps that I have been through:
- download and install “20016-05-27-raspbian-jessie-lite.img” on the raspberry (I read in this forum that there were some compatibility issues with later releases) => OK
- extend the memory to use all the SD card (64Gb) => OK
- run the script from RachelPiOs as indicated in the github page of RachelPiOs => there was one issue with the “lightdm” package that I had to install manually because it failed to install with the script (apt-get install), but otherwise OK (I downloaded the en.zip for Ka-lite as part of the config script)
- reboot
- then Rachel works fine for the Kiwix part. I could download some modules on it and browse them
. I can access as well ka-lite main page, however it misses all the graphic elements (logo, images…), so that I cannot log in as admin neither. I can stop the ka-lite server, but then I cannot start it again as it complains that the port is busy…
