Re: Does this mean we'll get a cut down OS ...?

In the Blog comments it states "The ‘USB BOOT’ is to solve the problem of getting data onto the on-board Flash. Basically the module can read its boot code over USB as a slave – we have some software (that runs on – guess what – a Raspberry Pi!) that can act as a host and write the Flash using this ...

The Pi is not upgradable.

Did you mean the Linux Distribution and if so what version is installed and is it a un-modified install ??

the colors (and other stylistic elements) are probably chosen for the real audience of the raspberry pi site, that is school children. not for older hacker/maker type of users. i'm guessing a lot of resistance agains the new style stems from people disagreeing with this choice, who want to see a mo...

Re: Format pendrive to ext4 for use with RPi?

It seems as it's specifically meant to be ext4 so I want to be 100% sure. The manual seems to infer ext4 is supported http:/...
