Cannot install tailscale
- @cghague
Hi,
Are there any further instructions made for laypeople on how to install Tailscale? I have successfully done this on another raspberry pi based kvm but the instructions provided contain quite a few assumptions and steps aren’t fully laid out.
Does someone have a current YouTube video or can walk be through this?

Hi @wtfkvm, thanks for your question about setting up Tailscale.
Our blog post guide explains how to set up Tailscale on a TinyPilot device. It should cover everything, but if anything is unclear, please let me know, and I'll be happy to clarify or update the guide. We also have a video tutorial that walks through the same process.
Let’s pretend like I’ve never used a computer before for simplicity sake.
Here’s where I am at:
Tiny pilot is set up.
I can access host computer they url on local network.
I have a Tailscale account.
Tailscale is not installed on the kvm
Host computer is a PC
I am remoting in from MacWhat’s next? Where do I even find the IP address of the device? What computer do I go into the ssh client on to set up Tailscale on the kvm?
Thank you very much :)

I was able to get it to work thanks to a 3yr old video some random enthusiast made so call off the dogs....
Have to say, i went with this device over the competition because i was told this support forum was better than the others discord. Owning both devices and interacting with both support teams, i can confidently say that was not the case at all.
