Install InterWorx on Raspberry Pi Print

You Will Need:

- One (1) Raspberry Pi board
- One (1) SD card, 2GB or greater
- One (1) USB ↔ Micro USB cable
- One (1) Ethernet cable
- One (1) HDMI cable
- One (1) USB Keyboard
- One (1) HDMI-capable monitor

This particular setup can scale with InterWorx’s clustering, so multiply the above list as need arises.

Installing RedSleeve, you can get the RedSleeve CLI image for V2 Raspberry Pi’s here: http://updates.interworx.com/images/raspi-v2-redsleeve-cli-0.3.img.xz

Write the image to your SD card (here assumed to be located at /dev/sdb, please ensure you have the right path) and run:
xz -cd raspi-v2-redsleeve-cli-0.3.img.xz | dd of=/dev/sdb bs=8M

Remove SD card and insert into Raspberry Pi.

Configure the these networking files as necessary for your network:

/etc/sysconfig/network
/etc/sysconfig/networking-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

Installing InterWorx: sh <((curl -sL interworx.com/inst.sh)) -l

Few FAQ's from the old website:

What model Raspberry Pis?
Model B.

Was InterWorx using a CMS?
Yes, they was using WordPress. They wished they could say they’re the first to run WordPress on a Pi, but they know that at least one other that has been running it for a while.

Is InterWorx compatible with Raspberry Pi’s?
It is if you use the special RedSleeve/ARM build we put together, available here. Install it, and then get an InterWorx demo license. Make sure to read the how-to first, though.

And it clusters?
Yes, clustering works like a charm! For more general information on InterWorx clustering, go here: http://www.interworx.com/features/cluster-panel/

Why did they do it?
Pi’s are awesome! It’s amazing what people have done with them, and they wanted to see if they could get InterWorx to run. Guess what — it does!

But seriously…why did they?
Raspberry Pis are based on ARM architecture, and ARM servers hold huge potential for web hosting due to their low power consumption and high performance/watt capabilities. They thought trying InterWorx on a couple Pis would be a fun way to dip their toe in the ARM waters. :)
