Raspberry Pi release RC14
Posted by Steve Revill Sat, 28 Feb 2015 16:57:00 GMT
Last weekend, we released RC14 of RISC OS for the Raspberry Pi, RISC OS Pi. This will run on all models of the Raspberry Pi, including model A, A+, B, B+ and brand new model 2.
You can buy RISC OS Pi R14 from our store or you can download the image to burn onto an SD card here.
There are many, many changes since the last public release (RC12). Full details can be found here.
I booted a Pi 2 yesterday from NOOBS 1.4.0 and it appeared to run. Does that indicate that its RISC OS is RC14?
We have been co-ordinating with Raspberry Pi about getting RC14 into NOOBS – sounds like it’s made it out. Phew!
Seems so, but I’d rather not post it in the forum as fact without some corroboration from other techies! If true, it’s worth crowing about.
It is RC14 – I’ve just downloaded NOOBS 1.4.0 (18-Feb-2015 22:38) which is a 737Mbyte download (in zip file format) which unzips to 32 files in 6 folders (739Mbytes). It includes Raspian explicitly but appears to load the RISC OS image (256Mbytes) over the internet. NOOBS 1.3.7 included all six distributions and was 86 files in 16 directories (1.32 Gbyte) making it a 1.4Gbyte zip download.
Can you clarify that for me Chris?
Noobs 1.37 has all six distro’s including RC14?
