• I bought a Raspberry Pi Pad 5 and tried to install Rasbperry Pi OS on it.
• I failed with that and I don’t know what was the reason.
• I had to ajust some switches and if I remember correctly I had to use the Raspberry P imager.
• I only remember that it has some special procedure.
• The installation process was some time ago.
• I saw now other examples in the web which run Raspberry PI OS on the Raspberry Pi Pad 5.
• Unfortunately I can hardly find a discussion in the web about the issue I had with the installation.
• Jean-Luc Aufranc (CNXSoft) installed Raspberry Pi OS on the Bigtreetech Pad7:

I had problems with installing Raspberry Pi OS on the Raspberry Pi Pad 5, but I suppors what Jean-Luc Aufranc from CNXSoft explains for the Bigtreetech Pad 7 works also on the Bigtreetech Pad 5.

• He writes it took him some effort to install the CM4 module and configure Raspberry Pi OS to my needs
• but eventually, everything works fine to his expectations including all features and the cooling solution is adequate.

• He used a micro SD card to install.
• Jean-Luc Aufranc installation is quiet detailed.
• It requires some editing of files.
• Eventaully I can take the instruction over to get my Raspberry Pi Pad 5 running.

• A miss a more in detail instruction how to install Raspberry PiOS on he Raspberry Pi Pad 5 and 7, eventually on YouTube.
• and also it would be highly desirable to have some user reports about this.
• Where you successful with it?
• Write it in the comments below.
• What is miss about the Bigtreetech Pad7 is also the option to boot from an SSD.
• Currently it only boots from an SSD.
• And it offers as far as I know only usb 2.
• There is a usb-c connector but I don t know if it can be used to boot from.
• And I miss a connector for a Raspberry Pi hat.

Information for product sellers who do stock market speculation and scalping with products mentioned by Peter Gamma on www.petergamma.org

According to the little experience of Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org, many of the products listed here are still full of issues which need to be resolved. If you do stock market speculation and scalping with those, you will loose Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org as a buyer of these products and as a reviewer. Is this not risky? Will you not loose a majority of your costumers as well?

And is it not so, that society in general does not accept stock market speculation and scalping with products as those which are listed here? And will you not be politically incapable of finding a majority of the voters if you do stock market speculation and scalping with these products?

And as a consequence will you not be condemned and punished by a political referendum soon? Especially if you do this to a Swiss, since are not majority of Swiss against stock market speculations and scalping with people on a budget? And people in Switzerland are known for a lot of political referendums, since we have direct democracy in this country.

And Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org will fight up to the European Court of Human Rights against people who do stock market speculation and scalping with the products which are mentioned on www.petergamma.org. And if they do not have yet the legal basis there to do so, he will fight for it.

What is a scalper?

A scalper is someone who buys something and resells it at a price far above the initial cost. For instance some says: “He got theater tickets through a scalper”: Someone who buys tickets to an event in order to resell them at a profit. And is it not also scalping if you take reviews from this site to make out of it a new product offer, and sell it for a higher price? We doubt that you will be successful with it. Since Peter Gamma will review your product and will user not come back to www.petergamma.org after that?
