has anyone ever initialized a remote node on raspberry pi before? I'm kinda new to monero, I want to initialized it on a raspberry pi so any machine I access I can just access that node to check my wallet or do transactions etc. I'm asking cuz when I run the daemon it always get killed with output saying "Bus error"

Just to clarify by daemon I meant the monerod. I haven't detached it

food4lyfe: which binary did you download?

also which raspberry pi is it? afaik you need a 64bit OS and the linux armv8 binary

I downloaded the Linux ARMv7. I tried the Linux ARMv8, but when I run it it says "no file or directory found" which leads me to believe that its the wrong binary so I downloaded the ARMv7. Its the raspberry pi 4 model b

I checked the raspi tech specs, it says that its ARM v8 but idk its not working before. I'm gonna try the v8 one more time

Yup, does not work. Keeps saying "No such file or directory"

The kernel releases has a suffix of "v8+" which should be armv8 but doesn't work, and I think I have the 64 bit OS. I ran uname -a and "aarch64" is printed

food4lyfe: i'm running my local node on a raspi4 8gig model, regular armv8/aarch64 binaries work fine

of that needs a 64 bit image, default headless raspios works fine for the record. for a usable speed and stability, i recommend keeping the blockchain on an ssd connected via usb3 converter. never failed me to this day.

elucidator: yeah I think my os installation is wrong, currently still investigating it. thanks for the suggestion with the ssd. I'll keep in mind

raspberry has been shipping 32bit OS on 64bit kernel ever since the raspi2

you have to explicitly choose the 64bit OS and install it raspberrypi.com/software/operating-systems
