CaffeineOS SD card

Posted on by Peter

How do I create my own SD card for CaffeineOS?

First of all, you need the latest image of CaffeineOS. Simply request access to his Google Drive via the page of “CaptLeChuck” / Pedro Cotter => https://bit.ly/m/CaffeineOS. The images can be downloaded there as a torrent and as a ZIP file.

Then use the WinImager under Windows to upload to the SD card => https://win32diskimager.org/

WiFi is now super stable under CaffeineOS and even SMB share access works. The configuration is explained in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKYbILbx1p8 (English)

The recommended SD cards are the SanDiskUltra 32GB for images up to 9275 and the SanDiskExtreme 64GB for 64GB images. Both can be ordered from our store with the latest CaffeineOS. Other SD cards – whether 32GB or 64GB – may be too *small* for the image. This is because every SD card manufacturer “interprets” 32GB or 64GB differently.

Of course we do not “sell” CaffeineOS. CaffeineOS is free software, so the SD cards in the store with and without CaffeineOS have the same price. Only if the SD card is ordered together with a PiStorm is it slightly cheaper.

Shipping flat rate

Increase in the flat-rate shipping fee

Dear customers,

Unfortunately, due to increased costs at DHL, we have to increase our domestic shipping costs slightly. From the current €4.99 to €5.50. As a bulk buyer, we now pay €6.10 per parcel (up to 2 kg). If things get a little heavier, we are prepared to pay €6.50. Alarming but unfortunately true – and this with an annual shipping volume of around 3000 parcels.

Everything remains the same for our European customers. Even if the €14.99 does not cover the costs, we will continue to pay a similar amount as for domestic German parcels.
