$13 ZeroPi is a tiny headless computer with Gigabit Ethernet (2019)
- blacksmith_tb 6y agoNow retailing for $9.99 USD[1] but unless I specifically needed ethernet, I'd probably pick an RPi Zero W for support's sake. 1: https://www.friendlyarm.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=69&product_id=266 https://www.friendlyarm.com/index.php?route=product/product&...

- ravenide 6y agoStupid question, but without any video support at all, how do you even install the software you need to use it as a headless server?
- kens 6y agoYou install the OS on a TF (Micro SD) card using your desktop computer and then put the card in the ZeroPi. After booting, you can connect through the serial port or ssh via Ethernet or WiFi, depending on what you have set up.

- 10000truths 6y agoInsert the SD card into another machine, add a boot and filesystem partition, install OS onto it, mount the filesystem of the SD card, chroot to it, and install sshd.
- volfied 6y agoIs this a good machine for a pihole? Can I power it via usb from my router?
- mucinoab 6y agoYes and yes.

- sneak 6y agoHow long until it’s embeddable inside an ordinary-looking ethernet cable with no nondestructive detection methods other than x-ray?
- CompuHacker 6y agoShould be possible now with a less capable (microcontroller-ish) chip. Delivering power may not be feasible without custom PoE hardware on one end.
- Ir0nMan 6y agoLooks like they also have a newer 'NanoPI NEO3' version. It comes with USB-C for power, USB 3.0 (Type A) for data, and 1/2GB RAM options. $20-25 depending on the RAM choice. https://www.friendlyarm.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=279 https://www.friendlyarm.com/index.php?route=product/product&...
