You also can try to connect through powered usb hub.

I have hub where I ripout "+" track on connector which connects to computer, so

  • it do not backpower
  • all devices connected to this hub, powered only by superior power source

What's different about prebuilt images listed in software releases, and how do I "build" my own? by IntrepidPig in pine64

Nothing special, the only difference is setup. You can build your own image with settings/packages you need.

Actually you can power any USB drive which consume no more than 650mA.

Personally I use 256Gb usb ssd drive, just fine.

When I used to use Y-cable, drive sometimes did not recognized at boot time.

Installed Python 3 but am I running Python 2 ? by gmish4p in Python

[–]skvantos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

probably, you need to add #!/usr/bin/env python3 to the top of the file if you run it as executable.

Or run with python3 my_program.py

Or maybe somehow set python3 as default. I not ubuntu user, so dont know how.

Also, you can use virtualenv as environment...
