Hi Yes. 3.8.1 is the version I’d started to install. I ran into trouble downloading all the support packages. Slowly but surely I was installing everything needed. But after a few hours of good progress I ran out of time. So I thought I’d just ask if someone more talented had already done the install before I put more time into the install.
Definitely, for me, a complete install of the OS is the best, rather than on a package by package basis. Remember to compress (and remove all gmail etc logins) before distributing. It is fairly quick to do the whole install to the SD card, from the compressed .img file. With “Etcher” they uncompress and write simultaneously, so you are only working with a couple gigabyte file. I have 4 working horn radio telescopes working this way and a few more almost ready to start observing. I thought I would get up to date with the 3.8.? Gnuradio then restart observations. Maybe I have to wait. Thanks in advance.
