Sounds great. Thanks for this.


For Pi 2 please confirm whether I should use armv7.img or rpi.img. If both
would work, is one better than the other and in what way (like stability,
performance etc.)?

Mayuresh.



Both work.

armv7.img is optimised for RPI2 in that it will make use of
armv7 instructions. There are probably other benefits but I don't
know what they are without digging.
