Describe your issue:

I have spent the last 3 nights researching and I am still lost. I am new to 3d printing and I could really use some help. I have a brand new Big Tree Tech Pi V1.2 and a modified Ender 3 Pro with the following: Creality V4.2.7 Silent Board, Creality CR Touch, Sprite Extruder. Can anyone help me create the files I would need to get this working? Please and Thank you!

At which stage are you ?
Do you follow some manuals ?
What roadblock did you hit ?

Thank you so much for responding. Okay with the help of spmeone on discord I was able to get the Ender 3 Pro running on Klipper. Now I can’t seem to get my Anycubic Kobra Max going. I’m not sure if the BTT Pi is capable of running more than one printer or if it’s best to have one printer per device. I successfully got Linux mint installed on an old laptop (Toshiba with an i3 2 core processor and 8gb of ram) and installed 4 instances of Klipper via Kaiuh (not sure if I spelled that right) I was unable to figure out installing the firmware on the Kobra Max and then the computer powered off while I was away so I couldn’t figure out how to get back to the install or if I need to wipe the drive and completely start over. I have experience building computers but 3D printing is completely new to me.

KIAUH is just a deployment tool, you can run it again and it will show you your current status of deployments, if something is missing - you can Install it again.
What kind of configuration do you target ?
Klipper + Moonraker + Fluid ?
Klipper + Moonraker + Mainsail ?
something other ?

About BTT Pi - most probably you can drive multiple printers together, depends how much load you will have there, if you hit issues like ‘timer too close’ when using multiple printers together - then you will know that most probably it can’t handle them together.

Ok, so you already have 1 printer running and want to add more and there you have troubles or you can’t flash it ?

Klipper + Moonraker + Mainsail I got to the part where I needed to flash the printer and I had to leave for a while. When I got home I found that my mini pc powered down on a timer. I had forgot to change my power settings to never shut down. I tried accessing kiauh but was unable to figure out how to get back into it.

Most probably you was installing it as described here
and running it by executing this:

./kiauh/kiauh.sh

kiauh usually install klipper in your home folder ~/klipper

you can go there and execute make configmenu to get firmware selection screen,
when you finish, execute make flash - it should build firmware and deploy it to your board.

I had tried that command to access Kush yesterday and it was not working. It appears to be working now.

./kiauh/kiauh.sh should be executed from your Home folder, most probably you was in wrong folder - that could explain why it didn’t work.

this command will always switch you to your home folder

cd ~/

Ok, so as I can see Kiauh did install Klipper + Moonraker + Mainsail
Now you need to build MCU Firmware for your Anycubic Kobra Max board and flash it.

To do that switch your location to Home folder and follow Building and flashing the micro-controller documentation, but only that section, official documentation is not accounting for Kiauh deployment scenario - some real location of files are different.
