Hi,
I am a noob to Raspberry Pi and Linux. I need some parental control tools for my kids' iPads. I came across this great website. I used the Pi-hole on my RP zero w for some time.
I tried to install KeexyBox but, it didn't work. So, wondering if you could have a look at what I've done and tell me what went wrong.
Install KeexyBox by flashing MicroSD
I followed the above except for the Step 4 since Pi Zero doesn't have a socket for a RJ45 cable. But, I created a wpa_supplicant.cont file with my wifi credentials (I did this because I didn't have a HDMI cable).
For some reason, it didn't connect to the internet. My questions is that do I need RJ45 cable to use the above method?
I also did try to Install KeexyBox from installation script.
1. installed Raspberry Pi OS Lite (without desktop environment) 32 bit
2. connected to wifi via ssh
3. set APT repository (not 100% sure if I did this correctly though)
4. followed installation scripts.
As the installation went through, I could see a lot of 'Failed' lines e.g. bridge-tool, apache, php getext, php gd, database, python etc...
So, it failed to install KeexyBox at the end.
thanks for your time.

Install KeexyBox by flashing MicroSD
- Download Raspios Lite image bundled with latest KeexyBox. -
- Use balenaEtcher to flash the downloaded .img.xz image on your MicroSD.
- Insert MicroSD card in your Raspberry PI.
- Plug a RJ45 cable between your Raspberry PI and your internet router.
- Plug micro USB power supply.
