The Ideal Distribution

The Ideal Distribution

There are, at the time of writing, about 35 distributions which support the Raspberry Pi according to DistroWatch. This includes linux distributions, and a few BSD flavours too. Picking one should be easy, given what seems like a broad range of options. But... things are never what they seem. I have some very exacting requirements for a linux distribution I use.

The RPi B was the first single board computer I owned. It had been a while since I had played with a SBC. Sure, I had done some messing around with some eval boards and SoC reference boards as part of work, but nothing quite as sophisticated and finished as an RPi.
