    FEED FR24 FROM ARCH LINUX....


    ArchLinux - dump1090-fa.png ArchLinux - OS-5.pngArchLinux - fr24feed.png



    STEP 1 of 3:
    Install Arch Linux on Intel Desktop

    Click above link or scroll down to post #2 to see the How-to

    NOTE: If you want to install fr24feed on a PI running Arch Linux (alarmpi), click link below
    Install AlarmPi OS (Arch linux arm on Pi) and dump1090-fa+fr24feed on it


    STEP 2 of 4:
    Install dump1090-fa

    The method below builds dump1090-fa from source code, using ArchLinux's PKGBUILD and foo.install scripts.
    Code:
    sudo pacman -Sy --needed git binutils make fakeroot pkgconf gcc
    
    git clone https://github.com/abcd567a/dump1090-fa-arch.git  
    
    cd dump1090-fa-arch  
    
    makepkg -si
    At end you will be asked if you want to install the built package [Y/n].
    If you chose Y, the dump1090-fa will be installed immediately.
    If you chose not to install the build package immediately, you can install it later by following command
    Code:
    cd dump1090-fa-arch
    
    sudo pacman -U dump1090-fa-*.pkg.tar.xz
    THINGS TO DO AFTER INSTALLATION OF dump1090-fa IS COMPLETED

    (1) IMPORTANT: Reboot computer
    otherwise dump1090-fa will fail to start, and either the Syview web page wont show (Not Found), or a rotating wheel will show.

    (2) To make SkyView Map show range rings, do following:
    1. Open file "dump1090-fa" for editing
      Code:
      sudo nano /etc/default/dump1090-fa
    2. In the opened file, go to following line: RECEIVER_OPTIONS="--device-index 0 --gain -10 --ppm 0 --net-bo-port 30005"
    3. In above line, add your latitude and longitude, so the line becomes like below:
      RECEIVER_OPTIONS="--device-index 0 --gain -10 --lat xx.xxxx --lon yy.yyyy --ppm 0 --net-bo-port 30005"
      NOTE: Repalce xx.xxxx and yy.yyyy by your actual latitude and Longitude
    4. Restart dump1090-fa

      Code:
      sudo systemctl restart dump1090-fa
    5. Clear browser cache and reload browse



    STEP 3 of 4:
    Install FR24 feeder


    OPTION - 1:
    Using amd64 binary "fr24feed_1.0.25-3_amd64.tgz"
    Copy-paste following two commands one by one in the terminal:
    The 2nd command below is very long.
    Please scroll right to see and copy this command in full (including the " at the end).

    Code:
    sudo pacman -Sy --needed wget
    
    sudo bash -c "$(wget -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/abcd567a/Archlinux-adsb/master/ArchLinux-install-fr24feed_amd64.sh)"
    OPTION - 2:
    Using i386 binary "fr24feed_1.0.25-3_i386.tgz"
    Copy-paste following two commands one by one in the terminal:
    The 2nd command below is very long.
    Please scroll right to see and copy this command in full (including the " at the end).

    Code:
    sudo pacman -Sy --needed wget
    
    sudo bash -c "$(wget -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/abcd567a/Archlinux-adsb/master/ArchLinux-install-fr24feed_i386.sh)"

    (3) Follow the steps below

    (3.1) CHECK PARTITIONS:
    Code:
    lsblk

    (3.2) CREATE PARTITIONS:
    Code:
    fdisk /dev/sdX
    ## replace sdX by your actual drive number (sda, or sdb, or sdc etc) on which you want to install Arch Linux
    Type “n” for a new partition.
    Type “p” for a primary partition and select the partition number.

    The First sector is automatically selected and you just need to press Enter.

    For Last sector, type the size you want to allocate for this partition
    (like +10G for a 10 Gb disk size).

    Press "a" and choose partition type "boot".

    Create one more partitions in similar way for Swap.
    (a) Make it's size double the of size of RAM
    (b) Do NOT make it bootable

    Press ‘w‘ to save the changes and exit.

    To see boot flag is at sdX1, and no flag at sdX2
    Code:
    fdisk -l /dev/sdX
    ## replace sdX by your actual drive number (sda, or sdb, or sdc etc) on which you want to install Arch Linux

    (3.3) CREATE FILE SYSTEM:
    Code:
    mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdX1
    mkswap /dev/sdX2
    swapon /dev/sdX2
    ## replace sdX by your actual drive number (sda, or sdb, or sdc etc) on which you want to install Arch Linux

    (3.4) MOUNT FILE SYSTEM:
    Code:
    mount /dev/sdX1 /mnt
    ## replace sdX1 by your actual drive number (sda1,or sdb1, or sdc1 etc) on which you want to install Arch Linux

    (3.5) INSTALL ARCH LINUX:
    NOTE: Each of following 2 commands Take long time to complete.
    Please be patient.
    Code:
    pacstrap /mnt base base-devel
    
    pacstrap /mnt linux linux-firmware

    (3.6) CONFIGURE fstab:
    Code:
    genfstab -U /mnt >> /mnt/etc/fstab

    (3.7) CHANGE ROOT INTO NEW SYSTEM
    Code:
    arch-chroot /mnt
    The command prompt will change

    From: ArchLinux - OS-3.png

    To: ArchLinux - OS-4.png

    (To exit chroot, use command "exit")


    (3.8) SET TIME ZONE:
    Give following command to list all regions and timezones:
    Code:
    ls /usr/share/zoneinfo
    Set your zone by following command

    NOTE:
    (i) Replace "HOSTNAME" by name of your choice without ""
