Posted by Steve Revill Tue, 12 Mar 2013 12:44:00 GMT

The latest release candidate of RISC OS for the Raspberry Pi can now be downloaded as a compressed SD card image from the Raspberry Pi downloads page.

This release is primarily intended to address problems with compatability with Raspberry Pi hardware using Hynix RAM chips. There are no changes to the Filecore partition (the RISC OS boot sequence and disc image) between this release (RC7) and the previous release (RC6).

A summary of all the changes in the RISC OS ROM image can be found here with the full-fat change list here.

If you want to know what’s going on in the RISC OS world, you can do a lot worse than looking in our forums. You can also see what we’re up to on our Facebook page (rool.social) and Twitter feed (@risc_os).

There are also loads of handy sites like these:

  • RISCOSitory
  • My RISC OS
  • The RISC OS blog
  • The Icon Bar
  • RISC OS info
  • RISCOScode

And for those of you who like it old school, there are the “comp.sys.acorn.*” usenet groups.

There’s always lots going on behind the scenes, too. We’d love to post more updates to keep everyone informed but there’s just so little time! If anyone fancies helping out with putting out regular update posts about all things RISC OS, please get in touch here (subject “news help”).
