I’m a bit of a newbie with home assistant so please bare with me. I have a Raspberry Pi 4 and have installed of Home Assistant on to it using your manual installation instructions. All well and good. I then decided to setup the auto start ability.
I followed your instructions for “Autostart using systemd” using the template for Python virtual environment. When I had completed that it stated that I needed to reload the systemd. I did a ctrl Z and went back to the command line. I then typed in “sudo systemctl —system daemon-reload” I then got a message “We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local system administrator etc etc”
It then asked for a home assistant password. I wasn’t sure which password it meant, so I tried 3 and got a message stating authentication was required to manage the system as root. I was obviously somewhere I should not have been. I then got a message “Connection timed out”. The command line came back but my monitor will not now display any text when I type. The connection to HA on my iPad(where I’m typing this) has been lost also. Any ideas. Does it just need a restart?
I partly solved the problem by reloading home assistant onto my raspberry. I can now type again but I tried the “sudo systemctl —system daemon-reload” command and it wanted a password to what I assume is the root directory. I’ll work on autostart.
