AirNav Radar Discussion / Re: Install rbfeeder AMD64 x86_64 on PC / Laptop with Debian and Ubuntu OS
« Last post by abcd567 on March 06, 2026, 03:53:05 AM »The Radarbox24 feeder on first run sends information to Radarbox Server which identifies the computer / OS architecture, MAC address, and the CPU Serial from file /proc/cpuinfo.
The Radarbox24 server sends back the sharing key and station number which is saved in file /etc/rbfeeder.ini
For unknown and unfortunate reason, the key and station number supplied by Radarbox24 Server are INVALID if the it is a non-RPi machine.
This problem is overcome by installing rbfeeder package for RPi (64-bit arm64) on amd64 / x86_64 machines on which QEMU support has been installed.
Pleasesee post linked below for method of automated installation by bash script:

Please note that the QEMU install is NOT a Docker install.
