KioskLite v1.1.0 makes configuring your Raspberry Pi web kiosk easier: edit kiosklite.conf on the SD card’s bootfs partition to choose the website displayed at startup. No SSH connection or manual Linux configuration is required.

What’s new

  • Configure the displayed URL directly from Windows.
  • Support for HTTP and HTTPS addresses, comments, and Windows line endings.
  • Local configuration page when the URL is missing or invalid.
  • Raspberry Pi Imager first-boot customizations supported, including the fix introduced in v1.0.3.
  • Volatile systemd logging in the release image.

Validated on Raspberry Pi 2 Model B, including a complete first boot with Raspberry Pi Imager customizations.

Downloads

  • KioskLite-v1.1.0.img.xz — compressed, ready-to-use disk image.
  • kiosklite-imager.rpi-imager-manifest — Raspberry Pi Imager manifest pointing to this release image.
  • SHA256SUMS — SHA-256 checksums for both the compressed archive and the uncompressed image.
  • README.txt — setup instructions and release information in French.

After writing the image to an SD card, edit kiosklite.conf on the bootfs partition:

URL=https://www.example.com

Several automatic reboots may occur during the first startup. This is normal.

Windows users

Windows may offer to scan and repair the SD card. This message can be ignored when accessing bootfs to edit kiosklite.conf.

Do not format any partition if Windows prompts you to do so. The image includes a Linux filesystem that Windows cannot read natively.

Checksums

Verify your download against SHA256SUMS before use.
