Kiosk System for Raspberry Pi 5 Model B (64-bit)

This is the main branch. If you are customizing a v0.x system, please see the maint-v0.x branch.

This is a specialised version of the nerves_system_rpi5 that includes the required packages to run a fullscreen web browser in kiosk mode.

Using

The most common way of using this Nerves System is create a project with mix nerves.new my_kiosk_app --target rpi5 and to export MIX_TARGET=rpi5.

Then, change the rpi5 system dependency to {:kiosk_system_rpi5, "~> 0.1.0", runtime: false, targets: :rpi5}.

Kiosk Example

Please see the kiosk_demo project for an example of how to use this in a Nerves project.

Troubleshooting

Hangs on reboot when updating firmware

This was traced to an old rpi-eeprom version. The fix is to update to the latest. See nerves_rpi_eeprom for a rough Nerves-compatible module for updating. If it doesn't work, try the Raspberry Pi OS tools.
