Wheezy zip file?

Mon Jun 06, 2016 1:55 am

I know Jessie is here, and is wonderful, but a project I have in mind wants Wheezy as its starting point. Where can I find the Wheezy zip file to download?

Note Wheezy will not work on a RPi 2 or 3 unless it is put in an older RPi and upgrade there first.

IMO though you would be better off figuring out how to make your project work in Jessie.
Unless specified otherwise my response is based on the latest and fully updated RPiOS Buster w/ Desktop OS.

Thanks!

I will try to get it going with Jessie first. Its nice to have Wheezy on hand to fall back on if for some reason that fails.
