Associated with #891

  • Rewrite of installation guide for Raspberry Pi.Installation based on Raspbian Lite with separate part for Raspberry Pi specific hardware.
  • Incorrect and outdated information removed from components where appropriate.


### {% linkable_title Raspberry Pi Hardware Specific Components %}

Some components that are specific for the Raspberry Pi can require some further configuration outside of Home Assistant. All commands below are assumbed to be executed with the `pi` account. For full documentation of these components refer to the [components](/components) page.

assumbed assumed

Do we really need to specify the pi account? They all seem like sudo?

In this case yes.
Since this installation creates a separate account for HA that does not have sudo privileges. Tested it on a friend and he got stuck there since he just continued on from the previous part where you where logged in with the ``homeassistant` account.

My mistake. Just stole the link from homeassitant.io. I'll fix the original link on the other pages in a separate pull request.

I'm considering if this wouldn't be a better reference https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/usage/gpio/ ?

That link is to the official Raspberry Pi Foundation, so should be better
