Re: Does your project need an automated RPi installation ima

By automated installation image do you mean something that somebody can download that will automatically install a piece of software plus a few libraries and utilities that it needs, and make a few changes in /etc files and so on? Yes, exactly this. I can give you detailed instructions for installi...

Interesting, I tried the Resin image today, wasn't overly impressed if i'am completely honest. It just appears to be all "talk" an...

A GPU memory split of 16MB works with the RPI v2 (1GB), this is what i used for testing the camera. If you can ...

Is there a way to upgrade without wiping the whole installation? BR Johan Hi Edtjlun, Unfortunately, sometimes there are too many core changes to DietPi, and, they cant be updated as a online patch. Hence this will require a new image. The old version will still function and you are not required to...

I prefer to use the FAT32 format because journaling partitions will corrode the sd card faster. Hi Legolass, I've not attempted this myself, but, sounds interesting. FAT32 ...
