    RISCOSbits goes all Linuxbits

    After much testing, RISCOSbits is pleased to announce the availability
    of EDOS - Easy Dual Operating Systems - on the full range of PiHard
    machines, for all new users.

    EDOS allows users to switch between RISC OS and Linux (Raspberry Pi
    OS) at the click of an icon. Using a hand-tuned Linux installation,
    particular to each machine, EDOS gives users the benefits of both
    operating systems on one machine, without the need to unplug anything,
    press anything or do anything other than run an application.

    Initially EDOS will be available as two options on PiHard, FOURtress
    and PiAno systems:

    Linux Prime - once a user boots into Linux, it will continue to reboot
    to Linux until the user decides otherwise and uses an application to
    return to RISC OS;

    RISC OS Prime - much like a Titanium's GoLinux, the machine will boot
    into Linux once and then return to RISC OS after a reboot.

    In another development alongside the release of EDOS, RISCOSbits are
    launching a scheme to allow existing Pi 4 owners to upgrade their
    system to a FOURtress with EDOS pre-installed, giving the advantage of
    both RISC OS and Linux running at high speeds, with RISCOSbits'
    exclusive power and fan control software keeping everything
    exceptionally cool. Please contact RISCOSbits for upgrade prices.

    To get your PiHard, PiAno or FOURtress system with EDOS, please go to www.pihard.co.uk to click-to-buy or go to www.riscosbits.co.uk and use
    the contact form. Existing customers can email RISCOSbits to find out
    more!
