Berryboot

Berryboot -- Boot menu / OS installer for ARM devices

Author: Floris Bos <bos AT je-eigen-domein DOT nl>
License: Simplified BSD - see LICENSE.berryboot for details
Programming language: C++

BerryBoot allows you to install various operating systems on your Raspberry Pi. Therefore it is a project that competes with NOOBS. It is enough to copy this software to an SD and thus a bootloader will be installed that allows us to have several operating systems available on our Raspi.

Compared to NOOBS, it presents disadvantages and advantages. Among the drawbacks we find the WiFi configuration, which although it is simple, we will have to do it twice, one in the BerryBoot installer and another in the operating system or distro that we install. But perhaps the worst disadvantage is that it does not install the latest version of the operating system that we want, so we will have to update. Despite this, it has advantages:

It occupies only 30MB instead of the 1GB of NOOBS.It allows installing many more operating systems and distros, not only the official ones like NOOBS.It also supports the installation of operating systems from USB sticks or from the network (even remotely by VNC), but it is always You will need the SD with BerryBoot inserted. It recognizes TV remote controls by CEC. It allows you to clone the partitions of the installed systems in order to have a stable or backup one and another that we use for our experiments. In case something goes wrong...

HAPPIGA

Last update Project Closed

https://www.bpj-studio.fr/_happi/fr-happiga.html

HAPPIGA is a Linux distribution for Rapsberry pi pico-computer, which allows to boot directly on an Amiga emulator, all pre-configured and optimized.

A Samba file share is also implemented to easily transfer its files.

HAPPIGA allows you to emulate an Amiga 4040 AGA at full speed with balloons full of RAM.

Compatibility with Picasso96 is available for a higher resolution.

Even if it will never replace a real Amiga, I hope that it will allow some to continue, resume or discover this superb machine that is the Amiga.

Nard

Last update 2019

http://www.arbetsmyra.dyndns.org/nard/

Nard GNU/Linux is a software development kit (SDK) for Raspberry Pi. Unlike "ordinary" Linux distributions Nard is intended entirely for the development ofMOTS embedded systems running day and night for years in remote locations. And you are more or less expected to add your unique custom application on top of the Nard platform.

Nard operates in a Raspberry Pi like a Live USB in a PC. During boot everything is uploaded to RAM and executed from there. You may even remove/hot swap the SD-card from a running system at any time and it will continue to operate just fine! The SD-card is only accessed upon request by your custom application.

Main features:

Lightweight GNU/Linux platform.
Hot swap support for SD-cards and USB devices.
Automatic allocation of SD-card free space for application storage.
Automatic repair of SD-card filesystems in the event of power loss during writing.
Raspbian emulation.
Complete remote upgradability with minimum downtime as well as preventive actions against a power cut in the middle of the upgrade.
Each device can be configured in the field with a standard Windows laptop (fast deployment).
Each device can be found on the network, even if the IP-address is unknown.
Online cloud image test service.
Console login with a hot pluggable USB null modem cable for field service.
Watchdog
Toolchain (compiler) tuned for the Raspberry ARM CPU.
Highly automated build system, perfect forContinuous Integration.
Committed to stability, simplicity, long term maintainability and lightweight design (perfect for the Compute Module Pi).
Several product examples. For instance; aweb browser kiosk.
Network boot without SD cardnor NFS-root.
