The parts list should probably mention power. You either need a wall-wart type unit or a USB A-to-micro-B cable and a place to plug it in to steal power.
I think the "Download the 2016-03-18 Raspbian Lite image zip file to your host" step should have a wget line that can be cut-pasted. "If you used clockmaker --build, ddimage will have been downloaded" That's the first mention of clockmaker. On the sdd mess. What I do, is check the tail of /var/log/messages to see what devices appeared when I pluged it in, then chown me:me /dev/sdX, then do the dd as non-root. That way I have to fat-finger two steps to trash something. "Note: this can take a while." My SD-to-USB box has a LED that blinks when active. "If that doesn\u2019t work, attach a physical keyboard and display..." I think it would help to have some introductory remarks about normally not-needing a display or keyboard and/or the parts needed if you do want to use them. "If you have not downloaded clockmaker, refer.." That's only a few lines above. I assume you rearranged some things and that didn't get updated. The line before "systemctl disable hciuart" is confusing. The "this" doesn't make sense. "Configure the 1PPS GPIO pin ==" Still == on the end. You don't need a good sky view for the first part of the smoke test. "The prerequisites not present..." I find the whole clockmaker stuff confusing. I'm not sure why. I think you are trying to describe both how to do it without clockmaker and also what clockmaker would do. Maybe what's missing is something like: run clockmaker --config it will do the following steps, or you can do them by hand "with two local devices and four pool sources" The previous ntpq printout shows 3 "good" servers. See my previous comments about actually using the pool command. "repository clones live and install" live => live in "You can choose to configure the SBC to use a fixed, static IP address.." The whole goal was to setup a NTP server. How are you going to use it without a static IP Address? (We could discuss that, but you probably don't want to go down that rathole.) "We provide a script called pinup that makes..." Where did it come from? The 4th reference has a [ but no following mumble] -- These are my opinions. I hate spam. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@ntpsec.org http://lists.ntpsec.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
