Hello,

I need the full RAKPiOS v0.9.3 (.img.xz) image for Raspberry Pi + RAK5146.
The public RAKPiOS download folder is empty and the GitHub releases page has no image attached.

Can you please provide the direct download link for:
RAKPiOS_Release_v0.9.3_Full.img.xz

Thank you.

Hi @AngryMonkey,

This is a proper GitHub release page - Releases · RAKWireless/rakpios · GitHub

3

that is the lite version not the full version … it contains NOTHING for drivers or Rak services… its an image does not contain WiseGate

4

Specifically I am looking for this image

RAKPiOS_Release_v0.9.3_20240320.img.xz

NOT THE LITE VERSION

I would like to know exactly what features you want.

I want my Lora gateway to actually work. out of the box the OS does not see the RAK5146. so this thing is a BRICK with out the proper drivers for the Semtech lora cards

I am frankly allready 2 full days into just trying to get a packet forwarder working, Portainer is a symphony of failed docker installs.

the OS should have the following ready to go:

SX1303/SX1302 HAL (libloragw) pre-installed

:heavy_check_mark: Packet Forwarder + global_conf.json templates

:heavy_check_mark: Basics™ Station packages

:heavy_check_mark: The reset scripts for all RAK concentrators

:heavy_check_mark: Auto-detection for RAK5146, RAK2287, RAK2247, etc.

:heavy_check_mark: SPI enabled + overlays configured

rakpios-cli is about the only Rak oriented service thats installed .

should not be this hard

Just to be clear, I am referencing the OS for a WisGate RAK7391

Have you tried rak_common_for_gateway for your Raspberry Pi + RAK5146 instead?
I confirmed that it was working on an RPi 4 with a RAK5146 concentrator running on the latest Raspberry Pi OS

Perhapse I am not being clear.

I am flashing a RAK7391 with a CM4 … not a standard RPi 4 …
I want the full support of the LCD screen thats built in.

I want to use the native Docker support. without having to build every little thing from scratch.

whats it take to get the actual funtional image for this gate way that I can flash in 7-9 minutes, rather than spending hours cobbling repositories together on a “maybe” it works?

Hello @AngryMonkey

RAKPiOS only comes in one flavor, the lite version. Services like packet forwarder (UDP or basicstation) or any other services have to be deployed as docker containers. Each container has all the required scripts and binaries to perform its duties. They don’t come by default with the system.

You can give a try to rakpios-cli utility already available in the system to deploy them without messing with command line commands or yml configuration files.
