This operating system is not for beginners so we wont talk more about it just now. The soft-float debian operating system is used primarily if you are running intensive java based applications on your Raspberry Pi (We wont be doing that for now). This will come in very handy if you are not too experienced in a linux enviornment. It has very good integration with the hardware and comes pre-loaded with a graphical user interface and development tools.

The Raspbian “Wheezy” operating system is the standard operating system to run on the Raspberry Pi.

It is important to note that most of them are based on the linux kernel and that it is not possible to run windows on the Raspberry Pi. There are a few different operating systems available as listed here. Instead it must run one of the operating systems that have been optimized and ported to the Raspbery Pi ARM hardware architecture. Since the Raspberry Pi is powered by a so-called ARM processor it cannot run the same operating system as your computer.

This guide will show you how to pick a operating system, flash it to a SD card and boot your Raspberry Pi for the first time. However much like a normal desktop computer wont boot without a operating system (such as Windows) neither will the raspberry. Once you have received your Raspberry Pi and unpacked the mini-computer it is time to fire it up and see what its all about.
