Installation

After installing the image on the SD, make sure to resize

If the image from respeaker is installed, then we do it according to this option

When we put the image on the Debian SD card from here, then by default the root partition is assigned 4 GB of space, and since we put Debian on an SD card larger than 4 GB, then there is a need to increase the space

Output a list of sections

df -hT

Output a list of disks

fdisk -l

Outputs a tree-like output that includes all block devices connected to the operating system

lsblk

We find our boot partition, it looks like this. Knowing that the SD card has a capacity of 32 GB, and the system is allocated 4 GB of space, then you need to increase the space

image

Change the size

sudo cfdisk /dev/mmcblk0

image

Reloading

sudo systemctl reboot

After the reboot, the root partition should increase in size

image

If you have built your own assembly or use my assemblies, which are above the link

When we put our assembled image on the SD card, the way to increase the size of the file system differs from the option if we would put the images from respeaker, which are here.

  • df -hT - output a list of partitions and file systems
  • lsblk - output a list of block devices
  • resize2fs /dev/mmcblk0p2 - increase the size of the EXT4 file system on a logical volume

df -hT - we display a list of partitions and file systems and look at the current size of the partition. In my case Debian is on the SD card and has a partition /dev/mmcblk0p2
image

Knowing the necessary partition, we will open the utility for working with disk space

sudo cfdisk /dev/mmcblk0

The view before we change it, we will expand the section. Initially, 3.2G is available to us, although in fact the size of the SD card is 32G

image

Change the size of the /dev/mmcblk0p2 partition

image

The size does not need to be specified, it is offered by the system itself. I selected the entire size as is and pressed enter

image

Save the section change by selecting Write

image

We confirm our intentions by typing yes

image

Exit fdisk by selecting Quit

image

We output a list of partitions to check for resizing, and as you can see, the size of /dev/mmcblk0p2 remains the same

df -hT

Now we change the size with the command

resize2fs /dev/mmcblk0p2

Now the size has changed and 30G has become available to the system

image

After changing the settings, reboot the system

sudo systemctl reboot

I have collected another image as much as possible for ReSpeaker Core v2. All details are in the description. Be sure to make a re-layout for the SD card to expand the root system.

You can get acquainted with the new wikipedia for ReSpeaker Core v2. where I personally went through all the ways and fully tested it. All I have written is a working solution for 2023

Kudos to your hard work!

I tried a few of those images with one issue in common, im unable to connect to the WIFI, any help appreciated.

Try as described here

Tried that dint work, whoever if i connect via ethernet seems to work I beleive, not the wifi but the ethernet

The image contains LInux Debian. You can google how to get WiFi to work. Maybe your WiFi driver has not been installed and you need to install the driver. You have two ways to solve the problem, install the image for ReSpeaker Core v2 from 0, this may help, or try using different articles to get WiFi to work

Articles for example, but there are many options on the Internet

No WiFi adapter found in Debian 12

Hey I appreciate that, tried that to no luck, will try again later.

Really loosing faith in this little product, was perfect for my little robot. I cannot even it see the respeaker in my linux, was hopping at a minimum to use it as mic array on my linux in the context of im using it with a jeson nano, but just not recogninzing it as simple mic. I though this was meant to be plug an play.

With regards to firmware also tried to update it and i got nowhere, incuding i followed the steps one by one.

To check if the WiFi adapter is working, install the old image from here

If WiFi works with the old image, but WiFi does not work in Debian 10-11, then there is probably a problem with the driver and you need to install a driver for WiFi or WiFi is turned off and needs to be enabled. The Internet is full of information on how to do this in Debian 10-11

Hi @DivanX10 ,it works with the originak image. Have you ever been able to get this to work directy with Jetson Nano by any chance or any other linux environment. Thank you. What i mean is using it as normal mics on a linux environment.

I tried using the microphone via XRDP through Audacity and it works. At the moment, I do not use raspeaker, because without normal and working noise reduction in Rhasspy Voice Assistant, I do not see any potential or future in it. Speech in noisy environments does not work correctly without a noise reduction filter.

Really sad hearing that. This was an expensive piece of hardwarwe at the time. Can you recomend any other? I need one for my robot a good mic array is all i need. Even looking at Overview MATRIX, but not sure if i will find my self in the same situation. Please recomend me if you can.
