raspberry pi alternatives for octoprint ?
July 22, 2022 03:13PM
Hi could any one recommend a raspberry pi alternative that has support for octoprint? As we all know there are no raspberry pi's available because of the chip shortage but i am looking to finish my ratrig build and i have been looking for a pi for months.

Thanks Nikki

... I have some Jetson Nano and Jetson Xavier NX - dunno, if octoprint will run instantly ...

*** Edit *** -- totally forgot - have some UDOO too, but they are older, so maybe not supported anymore?

Hi Nikki,

in theory octoprint can run on many types of hardware :

https://community.octoprint.org/t/what-hardware-and-os-does-octoprint-officially-support/25435

I've never tried, I imagine it is not so easy to config and to make it fully operational

A good alternative seems to be to be octo4a, it is done to run on an android tablet, old smartphone. This could be a smart recycling way for an old smartphone.

... so if it needs Python only, then any of my previous suggestions would work smoking smiley

It is not easy to find new hardware that Octoprint will not run on.

Memory 512MB or more, CPU speed 1GHz or more, version of Debian Linux that you can install.
