Not sure of all the new lingo - Thanks for the info on the "Mirror", so all the "mirror" programmes are just programmes that can be downloaded as operating systems/programmes? Whats the difference between direct download and Torrent download? I did use 2012-08-08-wheezy-armel.zip.torrent and 2012-08...

Just been given a Pi and trying to get it going.... I am having difficulty in getting the operating sytem onto the SD card, and whilst I think it said it completed the operation successfully, I cannot see the files via my XP computer. Question - can you see the OS with the XP and or Win7 computer. (...
