I'm thinking about getting a raspberry pi and am wondering if zorin is compatible? Does anyone have any experience with this?

I don't think it will run. I think that raspberry uses special editions of linux or android to run properly.

I found this:

I cannot say how well it will work for you.

Thanks for the link. If I end up giving this a try, I will try to post something to let others know about my experience. Looks promising...

I just did some more searching... not sure why I didn't find this before. Madvinegar may be right; this is from the Raspberry forums:

",,, The Raspberry Pi uses ARMv6 architecture, the Linux Distros you mention are for x86 architecture."

Is Zorin x86 architecture based?

Hi,

Zorin Lite is only available as a 32 bit version (x86) as it is meant for older; low spec PC's.
