Mycroft Mark2 GUI using Ubuntu 20.04 server, Mycroft GUI standalone app

This is based on the very helpful build log of user AIIX that he published on ​https://github.com/AIIX/Documentation/blob/master/Custom-RPI4-MycroftImage.md The focus of this guide is to install the Mycroft GUI as a standalone app without KDE plasma nano.

Install Linux

Use the current Ubuntu server 20.04 using 64-bit architecture from ​https://ubuntu.com/download/raspberry-pi Follow the installation guide at ​https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/how-to-install-ubuntu-on-your-raspberry-pi#1-overview including the initial Wifi setup

user

  • sudo useradd mycroft -g users -G sudo -m -s /bin/bash
  • sudo passwd mycroft
  • sudo nano /etc/group

(add mycroft to all groups like ubuntu)

From now on work as user mycroft

update / initial apt setup

  • sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -y
  • sudo apt install git gnupg wget curl apt-transport-https software-properties-common

Do the next steps as root:

  • sudo su -

Add KDE Neon gpg key:

  • wget -qO - 'http://archive.neon.kde.org/public.key' | sudo apt-key add -

  • echo "deb https://archive.neon.kde.org/unstable focal main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/neon.list
  • apt-get update

exit root by pressing Ctrl-D.

This is optional but will be a good idea on RP3

  • sudo fallocate -l 2G /swapfile
  • sudo chmod 600 /swapfile
  • sudo mkswap /swapfile
  • sudo swapon /swapfile
  • sudo nano /etc/fstab

add 

/swapfile               none            swap    sw                              0 0

  • sudo mkdir /ramdisk
  • sudo nano /etc/fstab
