I don't know what that means. The fact is that the Debian installer does not set things up in the way you experience with Raspbian, so you are repeatedly wasting everyone's time and polluting the archives by asking questions about it here. Most of the time that you do this you don't even make clear that you're talking about something that isn't Debian, that is configured differently to Debian and therefore behaves differently to Debian. It's good that you eventually "solve" this by remembering the last time that someone explained to you that Raspbian is configured differently, but by that time you have just inserted more irrelevant information into these archives and had a bunch of bystanders who don't realise the situation chasing around for solutions for you. > Debian, FWIW is just as guilty as anybody else but uses a different path > to get there, if there is not a dhcp server available, they too use avahi > to plug in a totally useless, non-existant address in the 169.254 ipv4 > block. And that does NOT get thru a router if one is in use. If there is some problem with Debian I'm sure we could discuss it and document solutions to it, which is what this list is for. So let's do that - when you have a concrete real-world problem that you can poke at with the list's assistance, not some problem with something that isn't Debian. Especially when we've done this exact thing a few times already. Regards, Andy -- https://bitfolk.com/ -- No-nonsense VPS hosting

Latency-test is a pretty brutal test, and an armhf is clean if it does 12 microseconds. Really good wintel stuff running intel versions of the kernel on a 4ghz machine can't do any better than 3 u- seconds. AMD stuff is generally a few u-secs worse. I was amazed to see 4.5 u-secs out of an arm64 install. The biggest worry is that the kernel might not be post dirty pipe enough to be fixed. It was 5.10.28 IIRC but its not running ATM as I left it running the armhf version so I could save about 5 years worth of its LCNC g-code history to this machine, then boot the new version and copy it back. That lathe has learned quite a few new dance steps since it left Chicago 80 years ago. Stuff it could not do then in its wildest dreams. It came with fixed ratio gears you could change from a limited recipe if imperial gears. Those gears are in one of its drawers now since linuxcnc can Mathematicallly do any gear ratio you want, metric or imperial. Need for some reason, a 57.3 tpi tapered thread? It's just programming a G76 move.The gears are all math, no teeth. And little noise.

I was given the address to get this arm64.img thats a complete desktop system with a realtime preept kernel already installed. But its complete and ready to rock and roll except for the network. I cannot say that about anything debian has offered for the pi's to date, and I dl'd & tried them all in the last 6 weeks.

And my friend, whom I'd promised a couple 64G u-sd cards to, about 5 months back before I lost both 2T seagate drives to the exact same failure mode, they simply went off line in the middle of the night about 2 months apart and became invisible, 2 u-sd cards to boot his rpi4 and run his big Cinci milling machine with, needed these cards 3,000 miles west of me, last Saturday. With those drive failures I lost 24 years of my history, which included how I did it for one of my machines a little over 2 years ago. So now I'm trying to duplicate what I first did using the raspi version of wheezy on an rpi3b. And I still don't have this bullseye system doing more than half what the stretch system was doing on pretty much the same hardware. The main diff is that /home, which was about a terrabyte on one of those dead 2T seagates, is now a 1.7T raid10 on SSD's. The other 2T that died, was my vtapes for amanda. Bingo, no backups. And I catch it on this list for getting upset with seacrate for putting a tech that wasn't ready for prime time on the market anyway? > https://linuxcnc.org/2022/03/03/LinuxCNC-in-Debian/ > > All the very best, as ever, > > Andy Cater Take care and stay well Andy.

With static IP, that's as far as anyone need read, assuming having managed to determine how to disengage the in place network setup. I don't know that I understand what you're asking. What is "all that"? /etc/systemd/network/* takes the place of /etc/network* when taking advantage of the already in place init system+'s ability to bring up and maintain an interface.

I switched to them from Raspbian about 2 weeks ago, and the image runs really nice on my RasPi 4 B. There is a slight difference in the temperature which is reported by lm-sensors, otherwise no problems yet. I switched because Raspian (Raspberry Pi OS, how it is called now) did not deliver security fixes for their custom kernel in time. And I prefer running pure Debian whenever possible.

My home network name to address resolution method using a hosts file, is at least a hundred milliseconds faster than anything involving a dns server. And its concept is also simple, scan the hosts file first, if that does NOT find it, forward it to the gateway, and my gateway/router forwards it to whereever shentel.net has a dns server. And it Just Works. Debian, FWIW is just as guilty as anybody else but uses a different path to get there, if there is not a dhcp server available, they too use avahi to plug in a totally useless, non-existant address in the 169.254 ipv4 block. And that does NOT get thru a router if one is in use. It might work if connected directly to the modem, I don't know as I've never been without a router once the net arrived at my street. With a router, the only reason I run iptables is to specifically block the bots that insist on mirroring my web pages, burning up 80 to 100 gigs a month of my 10 meg ADSL connection, virtually all of my upload bandwidth.

Maybe it does, Felix, and While I'm a diehard debian fan, if you want to use a pi to do something, the "fix" is in the pi versions of the OS where it belongs, By putting it in the bottom of /etc/dhcpdcp.conf with the comment immediately above it stating that its for the case of a dhcp failure, fill in the correct data for a static network. And restart networking. If you didn't muck it up typing it in, its a one stop fix. Copy in your local hosts file, hostname, sudo set your domainname, and your resolv.conf And its totally sensible. Its what to do if there is not a dhcp server on the local network. But that makes entirely too much sense, so nobody else does it. :-{> There is one other thing about the pi's I like. Uptimes are from power failure to power failure, and I have a small ups and a 20kw standby in the back yard that delivering power in about 5 seconds after the lights go out. If I wasn't putzing with it, uptimes would be a couple years. I can't say that for any wintel box running debian here.

Unless you customized the installer. Also, you misspelled the filename. The program in question is named "dhcpcd", which stands for "DHCP Client Daemon". And it's a Raspbian thing, usually.

Never mind, I finally remembered that /etc/dhpdcp.conf had the last word if dns or other means failed, filled in the last two stanza's with good data and restarted the networking.

Greetings all; Just installed a arm64 linux on a raspi4, and as near as I can tell early in the game, everything seem to be working except the network. I cannot get rid of a default 169.254.xx.yy route in ip a or ip r. I have even renamed the /sbin/avahi-daemon to something insulting, and canceled its execute bits, and service networking restart about a dozen times after checking the rest of the networking config, but it is still there. There isn't a thing on my local network listening on that address block. So how do I get rid of it so I can have a net with MY default route and bring it up to date? Thanks all.
