I decided to use DreamPi 1.7 however when setting it up, I would get an "under volt" message that would reset my command prompt randomly making it difficult to enter the sudo wificonfig command without interruption. Once I enabled the wifi and restarted my pi it went away and it seems to be working. Any ideas why this happened?
I thought so also but its been plugged into my usb on the PC since forever and never had a fault. I'll look into it later as I have to make another for my brother.

Even though it says "under-voltage", it typically means it's not getting enough current (amps). Using a PC's USB port is not recommended. The recommended amperage for a Raspberry Pi is around 1.8A with about a 1A minimum. A USB port on a PC (or really any other device for that matter) only supplies 0.5A.
Yeah, I have power strips with built in USB ports, and always plug my stuff into them to charge and power devices becasue it supplies everything with correct current I throw at it. I had issues when plugging my Pi into my PC. So just use a wall wart USB adapter to power it or something, or just get a powerful enough power adapter for it.
I'm attempting to get a DreamPi PC-DC server going through VirtualBox, but I keep encountering the same issue. I've made sure the network adapter is...
Alright, new semi-noob here. I've done everything said in the tutorial video (i'm using wi-fi since my modem is upstairs and there's no tv to connect...
