5.1 Turn off random mac generation To disable the MAC address randomization create the file
sudo nano /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/100-disable-wifi-mac-randomization.conf
with the content:
[connection]
wifi.mac-address-randomization=1
[device]
wifi.scan-rand-mac-address=no
ip/mac address can be checked by
ip r | grep default
or
ifconfig
(can also be done by raspi by editing the file:
sudo nano /etc/dhcpcd.conf
and adding this at the end. Now save the file by pressing CTRL + X then Y followed by ENTER.
interface eth0
static ip_address=192.168.1.10

static domain_name_servers=192.168.1.1
curl -fsSL get.docker.com -o get-docker.sh && sh get-docker.sh
(this command alone may not work for raspi 4; check compatibility) Add user to docker group
sudo usermod -aG docker ${USER}
su - ${USER}
sudo docker pull portainer/portainer-ce
sudo docker run -d -p 9000:9000 --name=portainer --restart=always -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v portainer_data:/data portainer/portainer-ce
then go to the following in browser: http://OrionRaspi.local:9000 add username and password
list current uid and gid, note these for later
id $user
# make a heimdall directory to mount in the container
mkdir ~/heimdall
# run the heimdall docker image
# replace PUID, GUID with the output of the id $user command above
docker run \
--name=heimdall \
-e PUID=1000 \
-e PGID=1000 \
-e TZ=Asia/Calcutta \
-p 8006:80 \
-v ~/heimdall:/config \
--restart unless-stopped \

Open a web browser and navigate to http://orionraspi.local:8006/
create a script file
sudo nano pihole.sh
paste the contents of pihole.sh into it
sudo chmod u+x pihole.sh
execute the script
sudo ./pihole.sh
add to heimdall, go to http://192.168.1.10/admin/ and login
Create a directory in the /mnt directory:
sudo mkdir /mnt/share
We change the access rights to the directory. Only root and only read and write.
sudo chmod -R 660 /mnt/share
We need first to find out the filesystem name for the drive we want to mount to our Raspberry Pi. To do this, we will be making use of the df command
df -h
df stands for “disk-free”, and is typically used to show the available disk space for file systems, but it also displays the name of the filesystem. or use the following command:
sudo fdisk -l
We mount:
sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/share
To mount the disk automatically when the system boots, edit the /etc/fstab file. Open with any text editor, for example, nano:
sudo nano /etc/fstab
At the very end of the file, insert the line:
/dev/sda2 /mnt/share ext4 defaults 0 0
Save the file.

Setting up samba We can install the packages that we require to setup Samba by running the following command.
sudo apt-get install samba samba-common-bin
sudo apt install -y samba samba-common-bin smbclient cifs-utils
Now we can share this folder using the Samba software. To do this, we need to modify the samba config file. The “smb.conf” configuration file is where you will store all your settings for your shares. We can begin modifying the config file by running the command below.
sudo nano /etc/samba/smb.conf
Within this file, add the following to the bottom. This text defines various details of our share.
[OrionShare]
path = /mnt/share
writeable=Yes
create mask=0777
directory mask=0777
public=no
Run the following command to create the user. You will be prompted afterward to enter the password.
sudo smbpasswd -a OrionPi
Finally, before we connect to our Raspberry Pi Samba share, we need to restart the samba service so that it loads in our configuration changes.
sudo systemctl restart smbd
In Map Network Drive enter "\Orionraspi\OrionShare" then the password to connect to the folder.
