Making changes to the Canute's software

pachpict edited this page Dec 16, 2022 · 4 revisions

To make a change to the Canute's files can be done two ways. Please note that any action taken by either method below which damages the functionality of the Canute is not covered by warranty.

  1. Create a custom 'upgrade' script in the Bash scripting language and inserting it on a USB stick. Please do not attempt this without prior consultation with BBT, who can explain the process.

  2. NOT RECOMMENDED: Unscrew the bottom panel to access the micro-SD card. Doing this will void your warranty, regardless of if any damage is done, unless doing it after receiving prior agreement from BBT, training and disassembly manuals. See Accessing the micro SD for the Raspberry Pi Zero.

We do not encourage users to modify the Canute's code by any means unless they are proficient in programming. When changing files on the Canute it is possible to render the Canute unusable so caution is advised. Any changes made to the Canute's software will be un-done when installing BBT official upgrades so should be backed up so they can be reapplied after an upgrade.
