Hint: Using sdm on 2022 04 04 and later RasPiOS images

Benn edited this page Nov 4, 2022 · 3 revisions

sdm works fine on RasPiOS 2022-04-04 images (and presumably later). Key considerations for using sdm on these images:

  • Add --disable piwiz to the sdm command line if you have fully configured the image using sdm using:
    • --user, --password-user, --L10n (or equivalently --keymap, --locale, --timezone, and --wifi-country)
    • --wpa to configure WiFi if needed
    • Have NOT used --poptions noupdate,noupgrade. That is, the IMG is fully up-to-date.

You can use --disable piwiz on both Lite and Desktop versions. On Lite sdm disables the userconfig service. On Desktop versions, sdm also prevents the piwiz desktop app from starting.
