I planned on going with RaspBian for this project. :) The only caveat here would be if Indy10 will actually build and function correctly in RaspBian. I will find that out in due time. I don't have the hardware available right now since I am travelling, will purchase a dedicated Pi2B as soon as I return to home base. -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
