Intro

Raspi-Mobile is designed to run as a Mobile Device together with your Tablet or Laptop, prepared for conditions such as in a Train, Flight, Hotel and so on.
The project has its focus to run as a Streaming Server next to common features like Wireless and Internet-Routing support.

Two interesting Raspberry/Linux issues are solved:

  • True automatic mounting of USB flush drives
    • Plugin any USB flush drives and mount the device automatically, supporting the filesystems ntfs, vfat and exfat
  • Graceful shutdown
    • This solves the issue of preventing disk damages in case of losing electricity power.
    • No need to login or connecting a keyboard and monitor to shutdown the device graceful, just plugin the shutdown usb device to initiate an instant and graceful shutdown

Features

  • Easy to setup
  • Supporting the Raspberry4. The project was developed on Debian Buster with the kernel version 5.10.17-v7l+
  • Slim image file download, the image size is less than 2GB
  • Automatic mounting and un-mounting USB flash drives
    • Supported file systems: ntfs,ext32 and vfat
  • Graceful shutdown using a special prepared USB flash drive labeled with RASPI-CLEAN-SHUTDOWN
  • Wireless support, the device has a mangement web to customize WiFi settings like SID and password
  • Routing support together with ethernet connectivity, all interfaces are using DHCP
  • Support OpenVPN
  • Support of common protocols for streaming:
    • SMB/CIFS
    • WebDav
    • SFTP

Easy Installation

  • Get the 2GB image here
  • Write the image to a Micro SD Card with the size of equal or better greater than 2GB, there is no limit, use any size of your Micro SD Card
    • To write the Image you may use tools like DiskImager
  • Insert the Micro SD Card to your Raspberry and start it
    • The disk will get automatically expanded to the maximum size during the first boot
      • Optional you may check the disk size by logging in via ssh and then run raspi-config, goto advanced and then expand filesystem, finish and reboot
  • Installation finished

Default Username and Password

  • Username pi
  • Password raspberry

Hostname and Aliases

Note: Hostname resolution is only available when connected through WiFi

  • Hostname raspberrypi
  • Aliases
    • raspi
    • raspberry
  • IP (alias to eth0, works even if eth0 is disconnected)
    • 192.168.5.1

SSH

ssh pi@raspi
ssh pi@192.168.5.1
  • Become root
sudo -i

Wireless default access

  • WiFi SID
    • Raspi-Mobile
  • WiFi Passwd
    • raspberry
  • RaspAP Web-Interface

Change the password for the pi user

Connect using SSH

Change the Linux Password

Note: Changing the Linux password will cover sftp too 

ssh pi@raspi
  • Type
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo -i
root@raspberrypi:~# passwd pi
New password:
Retype new password:
passwd: password updated successfully

Change the SMB/CIFS Password

This might need a new windows login after the change 

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo -i
root@raspberrypi:~# smbpasswd pi
New SMB password:
Retype new SMB password:

Change the HTTP/WebDav Password

htpasswd /etc/apache2/.htpasswd pi

Add a new user

Add a new user to Linux

This example will add the user admin
