*Sugar IRC-10 in RPi "B" 512 on rpfr-f18-rc1 (arm) and rpfr-17-xfce-r2 use IP6 ...all my other devices use IP4 | |||
... | |||
In general newer versions of Fedora will try and autodiscover IPv6 networks. | |||
If it finds one with a non-local (not fe80::) IP address it will get on it, and used the IPv6 routers spotted if present | |||
Given a DNS name with both IPv4 & v6 addresses set, it's mostly up to the application to see if asks the OS to do v4, v6, | |||
or just generically whichever the OS thinks makes the most sense | |||

*'''RECOMMENDED''' | |||
*http://scotland.proximity.on.ca/raspberrypi/test-releases/rpfr17/ | |||
Changes in this release: | |||
- Image resize/swap space creation is now more reliable (note, however, | |||
that it will take several minutes after the firstboot setup before the | |||
resize/swap takes effect - the system may be used during this time). I | |||
think we've probably nailed the last of the significant | |||
firstboot/resize/swap issues. | |||
- The image is now 1.852G in size and will fit a 2GB card (4GB or larger | |||
card is recommended to allow plenty of space for data/extra | |||
software/swap). The download is 665MB. | |||
Next week we'll start performance tests with armv6 rebuilds (sfp & hfp) | |||
and continue work on image size reduction and boot cutdown. | |||

"Mike Thompson has produced a publicly available SD image of Raspbian that is bootable on Raspberry Pi hardware. | |||
This is called the "pisces" image as that is what Mike's Raspberry Pi system is named on his LAN. | |||
This image is a little newer and includes a more complete installation of Raspbian and LXDE than the more minimal Hexxeh image. | |||
This image was created using the Debian installer so it reflects a minimal Debian installation with the LXDE packages added for a desktop." | |||
