How to install iTunes 12 on Linux Mint 18 with working Store
Trying to run iTunes with Wine, i faced various problems. Here is a working solution how to install iTunes on Debian-based systems (in my case Linux Mint 18.1) - with support for the iTunes Store. Warning: Syncing i-devices is still not possible.
When installing it with the playonlinux-"iTunes 12"-script, log in into the Store was not possible in my case. Wine showed the follwing error when trying to log in: SecurityContext failed with error 0x80090304
1. Install current Wine version (2.0.1) directly from the winehq repository
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key
sudo apt-key add Release.key
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ xenial main'
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-stable
wine --version

Move Odroid filesystem to SSD
## Instructions to switch odroid over to external ssd

# run lsblk to see all the hard drives. You should see a line starting with mmcblk0 and then 2 more underneath it with

Simple guide for setting up OTG modes on the Raspberry Pi Zero, the fast way!

Setting up Pi Zero OTG - The quick way (No USB keyboard, mouse, HDMI monitor needed)

More details - http://blog.gbaman.info/?p=791

For this method, alongside your Pi Zero, MicroUSB cable and MicroSD card, only an additional computer is required, which can be running Windows (with Bonjour, iTunes or Quicktime installed), Mac OS or Linux (with Avahi Daemon installed, for example Ubuntu has it built in).
1. Flash Raspbian Jessie full or Raspbian Jessie Lite onto the SD card.
2. Once Raspbian is flashed, open up the boot partition (in Windows Explorer, Finder etc) and add to the bottom of the config.txt file dtoverlay=dwc2 on a new line, then save the file.
3. If using a recent release of Jessie (Dec 2016 onwards), then create a new file simply called ssh in the SD card as well. By default SSH i

Simple guide for setting up OTG modes on the Raspberry Pi Zero

Raspberry Pi Zero OTG Mode

Simple guide for setting up OTG modes on the Raspberry Pi Zero - By Andrew Mulholland (gbaman).

The Raspberry Pi Zero (and model A and A+) support USB On The Go, given the processor is connected directly to the USB port, unlike on the B, B+ or Pi 2 B, which goes via a USB hub.
Because of this, if setup to, the Pi can act as a USB slave instead, providing virtual serial (a terminal), virtual ethernet, virtual mass storage device (pendrive) or even other virtual devices like HID, MIDI, or act as a virtual webcam!
It is important to note that, although the model A and A+ can support being a USB slave, they are missing the ID pin (is tied to ground internally) so are unable to dynamically switch between USB master/slave mode. As such, they default to USB master mode. There is no easy way to change this right now.
It is also important to note, that a USB to UART serial adapter is not needed for any of these guides, as may be documented elsewhere across the int

How to get docker-compose (fig) up and running on Raspberry Pi 2

Background

I assume you already have Docker up and running on your Raspberry Pi 2. If not, see this article.

The next natural step is to install Docker Compose (formerly Fig), but there's no ARM support out of the box. This recipe will help you install Docker Compose on your Raspberry Pi 2!

The following six steps will do the trick:

  1. Get the docker-compose source code from git
