But you must consider the installer if you will use linux sometime in the future. So if you are planning to use ubuntu afterwards I recommend the disk partition, but if you are just training for the rapsberry pi, I recommend the virtual machine option.
I have just discovered this kind of installer and I think it’s a really interesting option for the people which are starting to deal with all of these kind of things.Īnd this is the software installer for Windows to download: If you think that doing a dual-booting is such a difficult thing that could not be done by yourself I recommend you an easy windows installer that does the disk partition and all the work for you. But the problem about this option is that you can’t access in the lower levels of the software when programming and that the virtual machine will get the CPU busy.
For example in my case I am dealing with a dual-booting system with windows 7 and ubuntu 12.04 LTS.īut there is no a problem to play directly in the raspberry pi, because even if you make something wrong and the system crushes, you can remove all from the SD card and download another raspbian image there to get the system working well again.Īnother option is to install a virtu al machine and download and ubuntu image from their we bsit e.
There are a lot of videos on how to do a dual-booting in youtube.
I have installed and ubuntu disk partition on my laptop to get used to the operating system and I practised there all the commands before going to the raspberry pi. The commands will work because raspbian operating system is very similar to ubuntu or other linux operating systems with a debian distribution.Īlso this draft will bring you the knowledge to see what you are doing when entering in the terminal the specified commands that I tell you in the posts under the category: Raspberry pi setup. It is possible that some commands don’t work in the raspbian operating system but the most of them will work perfectly and they will bring you the skills to handle the raspberry pi in a correct way. These commands are the ones I have used to learn about Linux operting systems. In this post I will bring you the key commands in linux that are important to know if you have some kind of problems when you compile software in the raspberry pi.
