I know how awkward that title is and I apologize.
OS: Home Assistant 11.2
Core: 2023.12.3
Computer: Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.5
Explanation: I run a set of data collection scripts on my home network and one of the pieces of data is getting the computer model. In all my other SBCs, the below symlink gets that data.
Symlink: /proc/device-tree/model
File Location: /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/model
The symlink is broken and when I went to check the firmware directory, it is completely empty. The last update date for /sys/firmware according to ls -la is December 10 at 2:40 which when I checked my backups, is when core_2023.12.0 installed.
Attached is what should be in the firmware folder on my other Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.5 right now.
I did a find from root for either the model file or anything vaguely resembling it and I can’t find it. Anyone else have this problem or is it just happening to me? Or am I missing something?
Since probably October, I’ve noticed some really really random problems show up that never used to. And for once, I know it wasn’t me messing with the code; I took a sabbatical from HA to learn how to use Proxmox a couple of months ago. and everything worked fine. It was actually a clean install to a new Raspberry Pi as my Odroid decided to stop working and I haven’t had time to learn to solder (hopefully this week, tho). I was kind of wondering if it was the Pi that was the problem.
