New blog post: https://blog.mei-home.net/posts/tp2-fw-update/
This time about updating the firmware on my Turing Pi 2 boards.
I had to touch hardware for this one. *shudder*

Here is the offending SD card slot. I really don't know why they couldn't at least put it on the edge, so it is accessible without taking the board out of the case.
Also: Every time I have to do something with the Homelab hardware, I'm thinking to myself: How expensive can a bundle of VMs with a cloud provider really be?

Today's fun Homelab activity: Finally updating the Firmware on my Turing Pi 2 boards (https://turingpi.com/product/turing-pi-2-5/). I've already prepared the SD card. My biggest worry is that it looks like the SD card slot is on the back of the board. So I might need to take it out of the case. 😔

Turing Pi 2 - Retrofitting an EMC2301 Fancontroller
The Turing Pi 2 (v.2.4) has actually some secrets that just start to get uncovered. Looking closely at the board, you will find the red marked area with what seems to be an unpopulated 4-pin fan header (J16) and an unpopulated IC spot (U109).These spots were, as found out by Sam Edwards (CFSworks) actually a place to install Molex 47053-1000 4-p

Install a bootloader onto Turing RK1 eMMC memory
The Turing RK1 is a new Compute Module, made for the Turing Pi 2 board and with compability to the Nvidia Jetson cards in mind. While the board has some impressive specs ( https://docs.turingpi.com/docs/turing-rk1-specs-and-io-ports ) it had one small issue: The used Rockchip RK3588 needed a bootloader on its eMMC to be able t

The Turing Pi 2.5 is an updated version of the mini ITX cluster board for Raspberry Pi CM4 and NVIDIA Jetson modules. Changes include improved internal USB connections, HDMI improvements, an RTC battery fix, and more. https://buff.ly/460xpRY #TuringPi #ClusterBoard #RaspberryPiCM4 #TuringPi2.5 #NVIDIAJetson

💞 good morning internets! 💞
It's a beautiful day with fun things to work on, assuming the motivation to arise from the couch occurs before lulling into daydreams; 8hrs of sleep has me feeling uncommonly rested.
Today revisits this week's multi-day #Linux performance #benchmarking on an AMD EPYC (64C/128T, 1.5TB RAM, 192TB gen4 NVMe U.2). Then, some fun w/ Poudriere on ARM64 (#SolidRun #honeycomblx2 #FreeBSD), and maybe provisioning more #nvidia Orin-NX on a grief inducing #TuringPi2 board.🤩

Been running K3s on four RK1 compute modules plugged into a TuringPi2 board for almost two weeks now. Everything except media stuff has been moved over, including this Mastodon instance.
It's been working a lot better than when I had previously tried RaspberyPis. Being able to use NVME storage (I'm using Longhorn) is a huge improvement to the RPi’s USB.

Parts for my Turing Pi v2 finally showed up. I've had the board for over 12 months but never had Pi's to stick in it. I now have 2 32GB Pi4's for it, and I think I will get a NVIDIA Jetson to go in the other board and essentially turn it into 1 node for general containers/API's and stuff, and the Jetson for running ollama with local models and doing some light model training/customization experimentation.
Before I get to that, I need my 20core Xeon Proxmox box up and running, my Ubiquiti gateway updated so I can run dual failover connections (NBN and Starlink) and my wifi hot spots for the house cabled and mounted in the right places.
time to get in the roof I think.
Oh and I got the latest protocol spec PDF from Polyaire for my AirTouch2+ and need to get my #AI powered aircon client functioning.
If I ever hit lotto, I might be able to get to some of this.. heh.

I've had the TuringPi2 (v2.4) for over a year, but never got around to setting it up until recently. The build is a WIP, waiting on two additional Jetson Orin NX 16GB modules and am testing different arrangements for the node storage, networking, and oob/remote access functions.
There are also several CM4 8GB modules, one presently installed, but the final deployment will be 3x Orin NX + 1x Xavier NX (16GB on all).

I own a Turing Pi2 and have three RK1 compute modules on order. I am going to set up a K8s lab using all 3 nodes. Should I save money and buy 512GB M.2 boot drives ($45 each) or go with 1TB at about $75 each? I guess it's only an extra $130 after tax... but I keep throwing money at this project...

Repairing a TuringPi 2
Intro
In April 2023 I finally got my TuringPi 2 - happy to finally got it into my hands I plugged it in, headed over to the TuringPi 2 Github ( https://github.com/turing-machines/BMC-Firmware ) got myself the latest BMC firmware and started to flash it. Thats when things got wrong: The power supply coils started to screech - and seconds later I was gree

An unexpected find for @risc_v and @turingpi; very cool.
-
@Firesphere Damn. I guess you missed my previous rants about the scarcity of the 8GB/32GB CM4 units.
Anyway, i have one on the way (received shipping notice from DigiKey in the last 1/2 hour), so looking forward to starting to unbox the #TuringPi2 board and doing things with it.
-
I received 2 more CM4s that I thought were a canceled order (Dec/Jan time frame). I have them up on ebay, please boost for visibility. I had no intention of getting them after I ordered this other batch of CM4s. https://www.ebay.com/itm/176036779528 I am listing them at below retail starting bid.

Finally received my Raspberry Pi CM4 at retail pricing.
4 @ 8GB Lite CM4s in a Turing Pi 2 board. After my 256GB endurance SD cards come in, time to create a K8s cluster.

So if any of you are fans of #raspberrypi, then you might be interested in this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/404469997941.
I'm selling my coveted #turingpi2 along with 4 Raspberry Pi CM4s.
I'm going to regret this, but I have no room for it.

Here is today's reminder that #Discord is NOT a forum!
@turingpi I'm looking at you. (Nice to see you here though!)
Discord is directly hostile to #opensource users.
It is not #accessible
It is not archived.
It does not allow anonymous viewing.
It is not searchable, and neither is it indexed by external search engines.
Data is walled in and unexportable.Bonus round: Chat is also NOT a forum!
Chat is a chronological firehose, good for temporally transient information, largely ungrouped. Forums are a topical tree, good for longer-lasting information grouped by subject.
If you would write it down in real life (including email) then use a forum.
If you would only say it out loud (in the hallway or on a call) then chat is perfectly fine.
And if you say it out loud while someone else writes it down, tell your assistant to use a forum.

Yesterday the #weedlings got Fitbits (ok, #miflora, but they don't know the difference) and I spent a bunch of time arguing with a plant API instead of just inputting my decent-enough values from last time.
Part of the arguing involved removing the old devices. A smart person would have saved the thresholds, but I'm not that person. Doh!
Pics tomorrowish when I get back to it and build the dash.
Today was supposed to be offline, so I spent it integrating #calico and #k3s and #linkerd and such in the new #homelab. I .. am bad at not being burnt out.
Some good news. Changes involved a cluster CIDR change, so I had to reset from zero. Thank FSM for flux2. I expected pain and it basically Just Worked.

@ramikrispin Can you get Compute Modules now for the #TuringPi2 ? I sort of gave up watching after the kickstarter campaign.
(hmm. Nope...)
-
@OttersDangerDen @Raspberry_Pi I've got 2 4gigs on a #turingpi2. Working out some network issues but they are great so far. Feels more performant than #pi4b. (And eventually the "AI" accelerator chip will be supported too.)
Edit to add: I've never seen a #cm4 in real life. Or even in unstaged actual-user photos.
-
Neato! Now I guess I have to figure it out.

Ohh, my #TuringPi2 arrived today. Now to see if I can find a couple of #RPiCM4 modules in Aotearoa to start playing with it and learning more about what it can do (and what I can do with it).
-
Holy crap, my Turing Pi 2 showed up! And I've got Compute Blades on the way! I hope the cm4 gets more available real soon...

And here we go: https://blog.mei-home.net/posts/turing-pi-2/
A blog post about the Turing Pi 2 cluster board, which can be used to hold up to four Raspberry Pi CM4 and some Nvidia Jetson modules.
I'm also describing how I arrived at wanting to run 8 small SBCs in my Homelab.
