USB boot has been possible since the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B (v1.2), but it has only become really worthwhile with the Pi 4. Here is some information, tips, tricks and opinions explaining why and how.

The Raspberry Pi Foundation has made a 64-bit version of its operating system available. It won't run on all Raspberry Pi hardware but it should on some of the more modern hardware.

My previous post looked at Ubuntu on the Raspberry Pi 4. This time I'm going to try installing Manjaro Linux, with two different desktops on two different Pi models.

The Pi 5 is significantly faster, and has potential AI uses, while the Pi 4 has more varied video out options and low power usage.
