In this guide, you will be using Debian 11 as the operating system. While every effort has been made to ensure this guide complies with ADR-0014, no guarantee can be made it does now, or in the future. If you are using a Raspberry Pi, follow this guide.

This guide has been tested on machines including a Lenovo m72e, Dell Optiplex SFF 990, Dell Optiplex USFF 780 and a HP T520 thin client. This guide will help you to install Home Assistant Supervised, on almost any machine type you choose. If you do not require the supervisor, then installing HA Container may be a better option and will allow you full control over the OS to install additional software and Docker containers. If you do not understand what this means, or that making almost any changes to the underlying OS may render your install Unsupported/Unhealthy, this installation method is not for you and you should install HA OS. If you choose at anytime to install additional software to the Debian operating system, your installation may become officially unsupported. Using Debian 11 and following a strict set of guidelines available HERE will give you an officially supported installation of Home Assistant Supervised. DO NOT post in this thread about your OS not being supported, you must run Debian. If you are new to Home Assistant and/or Linux, then this installation type is most likely not for you and you should choose to run Home Assistant OS on your machine.Ī PR has now been merged into the Supervised installer that will block any attempt at installation on an OS that is not supported, such as Ubuntu. It is being made increasing difficult to run a Supervised installation, by choosing to do so you understand the guidelines linked in the next paragraph.
