[arm-allstar] Pi zero w

[jgnatow]

I built one not long ago with advice from here. Works great! Pi zero
2w paired with bf888.

Larry,




Yes, the RPiZW2 works great. With the current HamVoIP firmware image,


you've got to pre-install (bootstrap) on an RPi3 or 4, upgrade the image


to the latest code and setup WiFi. Once this is completed, shutdown the


RPi, remove the SD card and then place the card in the RPiZW2. It should


boot and work basically like a RPi3A+, from a peripheral standpoint. I'm


using several RPiZW2 boards, for single nodes. They're working GREAT!




At a $15 price point, I expect these will become the device of choice for


single node systems, once this crazy supply chain / chip shortage problem


resolves.

Did you ever post an update on what (if anything special) needed to be


done to make it work?




If so I missed it ... any enlightenment?
