I recommend that beginners start out with one that comes pre loaded, for example with Raspbian Linux. A USB mouse (if you want to run a graphical user environment – i.e.

Now you can use yum to install all the stuff you want.This content is 10 years old. Raspi-redsleeve-gui-0.3.1.img.xz – 359Mb – Desktop versionĢGb is a bit limiting, but you can use gparted to resize the ext4 partition up to whatever your SD card will accommodate. Raspi-redsleeve-cli-0.3.img.xz – 226Mb – Command Line version There are also a ‘xz’ compressed versions if you can handle that – it contains the same images as above. Raspi-redsleeve-gui-0.3.1.img.gz – 537Mb – Desktop version Raspi-redsleeve-cli-0.3.img.gz – 318Mb – Command Line version Be very careful to set the SD card location correctly, otherwise you could destroy a hard disk! Type ‘dmesg’ and you should see the SD card location at the end of the listing, if it was the last thing you plugged in.Īlternatively you can use the fedora-arm-installer available here: #dd if=/source_directory/raspi-redsleeve-gui-0.3.1.img.gz conv=noerror,sync bs=8M | gzip -dcf | dd of=/dev/sdf bs=8MĪlter your source directory and SD card location (/dev/sdf) to suit. To use the desktop image (in linux) type:
#LOGGED IN AS PI USER BUT STARTX DOESNT WORK TV#
It is optimised for using a monitor – if you use a TV and have overscan issues you need to edit /boot/config.txt and alter the line ‘disable_overscan=1’ to ‘disable_overscan=0’ and reboot.

Once logged in as ‘pi’ simply type ‘startx’ to fire up the desktop if you’re using the desktop version. They will connect to a network using DHCP.
#LOGGED IN AS PI USER BUT STARTX DOESNT WORK PASSWORD#
They both contain a user account for ‘pi’ password ‘raspberry’ and the root account has a password of ‘redsleeve’. To simplify the process I have prepared a couple of 2Gb card images that can get you started. The way this was achieved was to take one of the current Raspberry Pi Debian images and replace the main partition from the rootfs currently available on the RedSleeve site. Note: it has been reported that these images do not work on the V2 Pi boards.Īs I don’t have one to test I suggest you try the alternative install method as outlined on the RedSleeve Wiki Page – This latest update now comes in two versions, one a basic command line setup while the other has a basic desktop available. RedSleeve Linux is an arm port of an OS like Centos :). I’ve got an updated version of RedSleeve Linux ( ) running on the Raspberry Pi.
