I know how awkward that title is and I apologize.
OS: Home Assistant 11.2
Core: 2023.12.3
Computer: Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.5
Explanation: I run a set of data collection scripts on my home network and one of the pieces of data is getting the computer model. In all my other SBCs, the below symlink gets that data.
Symlink: /proc/device-tree/model
File Location: /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/model
The symlink is broken and when I went to check the firmware directory, it is completely empty. The last update date for /sys/firmware according to ls -la is December 10 at 2:40 which when I checked my backups, is when core_2023.12.0 installed.
Attached is what should be in the firmware folder on my other Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.5 right now.
I did a find from root for either the model file or anything vaguely resembling it and I can’t find it. Anyone else have this problem or is it just happening to me? Or am I missing something?

You know, I didn’t think of that. I’ve never run an OS in docker; all I tested my data collection scripts on were my regular VM’s a few times just for fun. And for that matter, most LXC containers I run in Proxmox are privileged to get around restrictions (still haven’t found a way for LXC’s to let me compile different architectures, though. HA may have updated their docker to current, which would explain why it happened so suddenly.
And yes, for now, I’ll just do root login to grab the information; it’s technically more accurate, I am just knee-jerk distrustful of using root to the point until Proxmox and this last year, I almost forgot it existed unless there’s a very weird linux problem I need it for. Thanks for this information, though; I’ve only just started seriously working with LXC and docker containers, so that’s not an approach I woudl have considered.
