Describe the bug PINN Lite offers the Raspios version from 2024-03-15, but does not offer 2024-07-04 https://downloads.raspberrypi.com/raspios_armhf/images/raspios_armhf-2024-07-04/2024-07-04-raspios-bookworm-armhf.img.xz https://downloads.raspberrypi.com/raspios_full_armhf/images/raspios_full_armhf-2024-07-04/2024-07-04-raspios-bookworm-armhf-full.img.xz https://downloads.raspberrypi.com/raspios_lite_armhf/images/raspios_lite_armhf-2024-07-04/2024-07-04-raspios-bookworm-armhf-lite.img.xz ...And so on.

To reproduce No special steps.

Expected behaviour Installer should offer updated version.

Actual behaviour Out of date version offered

System

Additional context Worked on trying to produce my own OS metafiles for inclusion on USB stick based on the ones produced by downloading the offered version. Was successful at separating Raspios image into boot.tar.xz and root.tar.xz, and determining most items in os.json. Was unable to determine how download_size is computed and unable to find clear instructions for how to do this manually.

What do I need to do to produce the correct value for this field?

As you can appreciate, it takes a while to do these conversions and I apologise for not having enough time to keep on top of this all the time. Conversions will be done shortly.

Hordeking commented 1 week ago

Much obliged. I'll keep an eye open for it.

Hordeking commented 1 week ago

Would it be helpful for me to write a script to automagically split an image file into boot and root, at least for Raspios? I was lazy today and found that apparently 7z can parse multipartition images, rather than having to figure out the offsets and mount loopback.

Once I'm a little more familiar, I might be willing to lend some of my time to help you keep up, if you'd like. Like you, I don't have a huge amount of free time, but I wouldn't mind contributing in small ways to a nice project.

I already have some scripts to do most of the conversions. They do need knocking into shape before I'm willing to publish them, though.

Hordeking commented 1 week ago

Alright. Well I guess I'll just sit tight and tinker at my end and keep an eye open, then. :)
