How to install RISC OS on a RaspberryPi

Installing RISC OS on a RaspberryPi is simple.

You'll need five things:

  1. A Windows computer (others can be used, but you're on your own)
  2. The RISC OS image - http://www.raspberrypi.org/ ... click on Downloads
  3. A RaspberryPi
  4. Win32DiskImager - http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/
  5. A 2GiB SD card (it must be 2 gigabytes)

The video tutorial below will explain how to install RISC OS, and also how to set it up to be useful if you don't have an HD monitor but are stuck with composite video.

 

Your comments:

As of February 2025, commenting is no longer available to UK residents, following the implementation of the vague and overly broad Online Safety Act. You must tick the box below to verify that you are not a UK resident, and you expressly agree if you are in fact a UK resident that you will indemnify me (Richard Murray), as well as the person maintaining my site (Rob O'Donnell), the hosting providers, and so on. It's a shitty law, complain to your MP.
It's not that I don't want to hear from my British friends, it's because your country makes stupid laws.

Hi Rick, 
Just read your answers to the riscos newby in the Rool forum. Well explained - As an Acorn nut from 1983 I think your explanations are very apt and succinct.

English language subtitles are now available. 
 
If anybody would be interested in providing subtitles in their own language (French, German, Dutch, etc); I have put the original subtitle file at http://www.heyrick.co.uk/random/riscos-raspberrypi.srt for you to use as a template, especially with respect to the timings.
