Build windows snapshot-tool

cd windows-snapshot-tool mkdir build && cd build cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../Toolchain-cross-mingw32-linux.cmake ../ make

prepare raspberry pi

install raspbian lite

sudo raspi-config

• ??
• ??

sudo su - apt update apt dist-upgrade apt install python3-pyinotify python3-rpi.gpio apt clean

echo "dtoverlay=dwc2" >> /boot/config.txt

echo "libcomposite" >> /etc/modules

apt purge plymouth systemctl disable getty@tty1

add/change in /boot/cmdline.txt: console=tty3 consoleblank=0 loglevel=3 vt.global_cursor_default=0 (logo.nologo to disable the raspberry)

copy everything to /opt/freezer/ chmod a+x /opt/freezer/display.py add to /etc/rc.local: cd /tmp && nohup python3 /opt/freezer/display.py 2>&1 &

read-only root

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adafruit/Raspberry-Pi-Installer-Scripts/master/read-only-fs.sh
sudo bash read-only-fs.sh

• continue: y
• jumper: n
• gpio-halt: n
• watchdog: n
• continue: y

this is how to remount read-write later to make changes to the fs

mount -o remount,rw / mount -o remount,rw /boot

ToDo

• dritte led für boot?: dtoverlay=gpio-poweroff,gpiopin=23,active_low
• gpio pins ändern
• screenshot-tool option für sofortigen screenshot
• hdmi regelmäßig überprüfen ob inaktiv
