It's arm architecture , there's no need for you to care about the underlying architecture unless you're a geek , it works the same as ordinary pc , just boot and install

QUOTE(SnoWFisH @ Mar 2 2012, 06:10 PM) Wow, great. I'm can't even get into the preorder stage... http://malaysia.rs-online.com/web/generalD...?id=raspberrypiFinally we have a cheaper alternative to the beagleboard to play with. you also can go here to get the rpi. but seem like take a lot of time, because we need them to contact us first if there are stock. but this is the Malaysian branch of RS Components, so maybe easier if we got some problem with the hardware. the price is MYR125.00 as for now (4/3/2012) at RS Components website, is it right conversion from USD/£? |

QUOTE(general_odin @ Mar 2 2012, 10:42 AM) haha, yeah i think we should gather people to do bulk order... but its only available in uk at the moment and its sold out within the first 2 hours after being made available to the market If you are doing a bulk order, pls count me in..integrate into our homes and fire up ios5... "Jarvis, let there be light" hahaha I'm still running my Soekris ( http://soekris.com/products/net5501.html ) on Debian as my home linux for many years doing OpenVPN & stats ( munin pulling stats via SNMP ) on Unifi router bandwidth monitoring on a 4Gb CF card.. Screnshot of my UNIFI stats on soekris/munin » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « If this support Debian, I can easily port it over my soekris to this computer.. Now just need to find a nice casing for this little powerful computer... Have not read the docs, I think installing the linux OS would be just writing a raw linux partition to the SDcard via SDcard reader mounted on a linux...

if making bulk orders do count me in.
do you think this can be made into an intrusion protection system? will sit inline between the internet and my router. maybe can even have another one made into a dedicated firewall |

Offtopic,
I found beagle bone is more cool, more expensive though, is for those are are familiar with arduino, but want more power http://beagleboard.org/bone One more thing, not all distro are supported, you need to wait for them to compile for ARM, that you probably already know This post has been edited by sweemeng: Mar 5 2012, 10:38 PM |

QUOTE(jason83 @ Mar 5 2012, 11:17 PM) I never say it can install windows on it , but recompilation of windows onto ARM environment make it possible , but still there's space constraint(sd card small size) , and recently windows is making ARM cpu Windows because most of the tablet nowadays using ARM cpu |

QUOTE(jason83 @ Mar 3 2012, 01:37 AM) IIRC there are articles saying it currently is compatible with Debian and Arch Linux. I don't know about Arch but there should be a little detail on instructions for Debian, like someone said earlier in this thread there's even a youtube vid showing it. Sad Ubuntu ARM can't go into it, I'd prefer it for a quick setup. |

Well linux distro all develop under C language so it's portable , we just need to compile it under ARM architecture to make it works , the thing is size constraint because raspberry using only SD card but mostly linux distro OS uses small space
