Operating Systems known to work

General

In general, if you can run an OS on a stand-alone Raspberry Pi, it should also run on a Hackberry.
Occasionally, there are problems with the Hyperpixel screen. These problems will show on multiple OS's then.

Sometimes newer kernels will fix or break the screen drivers. OS's that use newer or older kernels than the official Raspberry Pi OS, or even build their own kernel, might suffer from problems that have either been fixed or have not yet been fixed.

Required Adjustments

To get any OS to work on a Hackberry, the config.txt needs to be edited to load the display driver. Otherwise, the screen will stay dark.

Please refer to the individual installation guides for more details.
