How to re-purpose DeepLens / Install different OSs

0

Hi guys,

Is there a way to install different OSs, other than its factory Ubuntu 16.04, on DeepLens to repurpose it?

One of my Deeplens v1.1 is no longer needed for its original usage, and I was considering to reuse it for other purposes. It would be better if one can install different OSs on it, like Windows or official Ubuntu releases.

Disabling secure boot

Tried to burn a official Ubuntu image on /dev/sda1, but the display reads been blocked by current security policy. Using a UFI bootable USB created via ventory will leads to the same error. So possibablly, if one can disable the secure boot setting, then we can install different OSs on it ? How to do that?

Many thanks~

I was able to install debian 11 on my v1.0 device with normal procedure, but the built-in camera refused to show up. other than that, everything works fine.

  • "normal procedure" as in the factory reset? https://s3.amazonaws.com/deeplens-public/factory-restore/DeepLens_System_Restore_Instruction.pdf I tried debian 11.9 and 12.5. Both were blocked by current security policy Also tried updating ubuntu to 18 via do-release-upgrade but then it wouldn't boot up cause of security policy

  • “Normal procedure” as following the guide on “installing Debian on intel x86 devices”. Just ignore aws’s guide and install Linux on deeplens just as it is a general purpose x86 device. One thing to mention is that my is the earliest edition got when it is released, so might lack some of the security features that later models have.

  • Thanks for replying. I have a v1.0 device too (Model AMDC-1), bought in june 2018. Maybe the earlier batches have a different firmware.

    Did you install from USB or from ubuntu? https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/apds03.en.html
