Has anyone had any experiance setting up BBBS on a Raspberry Pi? I
have a couple of Pi 4s to play with, but very little (if any) Linux experience, so this may be a complete wild shot.
But if there is anyone out there which has some information on how to
get started, may be one day my BBS will be back?
I have a pi 3B+ with an attached hard drive in a x830 case etc. The system was migrated over using
the standard tool for installing on a SD card, then the SD was removed and the system boot to the
drive. A lot faster.
O/S is Rasbian current version as far as I know and I run mbse as a back up / parallel system.
I see no reason why bbbs should not work PROVIDING you can get a version for ARM processors and even
better for the Pi.
You cannot use one for X64 Intel/AMD based CPU's.
If all that is good then just follow the instruction manual etc and look at what extra libraries are
needed.
