The latest OS image above is preconfigured for the CPi-A070WR, CPi-B070WR, and the CPi-A102WR. For other models, please replace the /boot/config.txt file with the appropriate model-specific one located in the /boot directory.
For OS images prior to 2022-07-26 overwrite /boot/config.txt with one of the following:
When the OS is installed and booted for the first time, it will automatically expand the file system to take advantage of the specific model's entire storage capacity, and then reboot automatically. Subsequent boots will boot directly to the desktop.
The installation procedure is the same as that used with the Raspberry Pi 3. See “Installing Images…” at the Raspberry Pi Installation Instructions. From the “Choose OS” menu, select “Use Custom” and then browse the to the OS downloaded from the links above.
For flashing eMMC models, use the following procedure:
See the Raspberry Pi eMMC Flashing Instructions for more information.
The default user is pi and the default password is raspberry. To replace the pi user, use the Raspberry Pi Imager, press the gear icon and set a new username and password in the Advance Options screen before writing the OS to the SD card or eMMC.
Most likely users will want to customize their OS by changing settings and adding/remove software to customize the ComfilePi panel PC to their needs. Win32DiskImager can be used to Read an SD card or eMMC disk to an image file (.img) for cloning other ComfilePi panel PCs.
Source code for appropriately licensed software can be obtained by executing apt source {package_name}
on the ComfilePi.
