 Are there any tips or tricks to setting up #homeassistant on a pi4 with SSD boot instead of SD card or is it pretty straightforward? Just flash the SSD with the image and plug and play? 🤞  #asknostr

 It's been a while since I've set up a fresh HA instance but will be tackling it this week. Maybe I'll even put some guides together.

I could be wrong though.  
 I'm not sure, but it works fine for me. 

 I like it because I also run Mealie on it. I have a Start9 too, bit I'm not a maxi. The Start 9 is a better machine.
