This is an Ansible configuration that configures a fresh Raspbian installation |

on Raspberry Pi. It is intended to be run in local (pull) mode, where ansible |

This playbook is known to run on Raspbian stretch (9) and Raspberry Pi OS |
|
|
|
|
buster (10). I've not been able to run it on jessie because that ships with |
|
|
|
|
Python 2.4, which is not supported by Ansible. It can run against jessie in |
|
|
|
|
remote mode. See below. |
