Windows Installation

Windows Installation
Windows installation is very simple and works on Windows 2000 / XP, Vista and Seven. First, fetch the Windows installer from this link here and extract the contents to a folder. Next up, run the program called “setup.exe”, you may receive a UAC prompt if running Vista or later. You will now be presented with an interface such as this: Your SD card should be shown on the list. WARNING: This program enumerates ALL removable devices on the system, data loss can occur and I will not be responsible if you image the wrong device. Note if you want to use your SD card for purposes other than Raspbmc and the card only appears to be about 60MB in Windows: That’s because Windows does not recognise the Linux partitions that Raspbmc uses.

J’ai testé pour vous : Un boîtier pour le B+ En même temps que mes Raspberry Pi Model B+, j’avais bien entendu commandé de quoi les habiller. Pas question de réutiliser un boîtier prévu pour les modèles précédents. Ce n’est pas une question de mode, mais un problème de taille… Je viens de recevoir un boîtier transparent de chez Kubii, et je vous propose un test complet, comprenant le montage du Raspberry Pi B+ dans ce boîtier. Le boîtier est très léger, translucide et muni d’un certain nombre d’ouvertures. Pour insérer le RasPi B+ dans le boîtier, il faut d’abord l’ouvrir. Pour ouvrir appuyez légèrement sur la languette avec un tournevis (ou un ongle) puis poussez sur la languette pour la dégager. La moitié du travail est fait. On voit qu’il y a deux pattes munies de crochets entre les trous destinés aux prise USB et Ethernet. Poussez sur le boîtier pour dégager la partie haute du crochet. Voilà, le boîtier est ouvert. Repérez déjà ces supports sur un des côtés du boîtier. Ce côté étant mis en place, on passe du côté opposé : CLIC !

Raspberry Pi OS Image Downloader | Mr Pfisters Random Waffle When I first started out playing around with the Raspberry Pi I used the pre-made SD Card images available on the website, however I soon noticed these were out of date, and then found it a challenge to find up to date (usually nightly builds) of some of the Operating Systems. So I decided to automate this process to make it easier, and to provide a GUI interface for new users. The application scans a customisable (XML based) list of distributions and binary sources using a defined search pattern, if it finds any builds it adds them to a selectable list, allowing you not only to download the latest available builds but also older builds. Each Operating System distribution can have multiple sources so various flavours can be included. When you select and download an image, it is also cached so you don’t need to download the same file twice, cached files are marked so they can be easily spotted. You can downloaded the latest release here. *Update 16-06-2012* *Update 15-08-2012*

Media sources Media Sources are virtual links to the content you wish XBMC to use. When you enter any of the Videos, Music, Pictures or the Filemanager, you will see an entry for "Add Sources". When you first start with XBMC you should at least add one source, like a drive or directory on your XBMC device to get you started. If you select "Add sources" a dialog appears, where you may manually input a path, or browse to a source that contains media that you would like XBMC to use and display. As an example, if you enter the Music section, you could tell XBMC where it should look for your music. 1 Adding media sources You can select as many sources you like if you have content in different places. 1.1 Root file selection By default every root section includes a Add Sources button that you can click to start adding sources. While in the root of any of XBMC's sections you being up the context menu by pressing C on a keyboard or guide on a remote. 2 Add source window 3 Network file sharing See: File sharing
