Host Computer

Unequivocally, Raspberry Pi. Read more...
PS: Not so fast. At the moment of original writing, a suitable Pi cost about $35, at the moment of writing of this, it is about x4 that. So let's revert to the original text that said "Any UNIX will do".

How To Get Your Hardware Supported

Three ways:

  • Wait until project contributors become interested in your hardware and support it;

  • Donate the hardware so project contributors can provide and test support for it;

  • Make a donation so project contributors can exercise their discretion and choose what hardware to support so you can reap the benefits.
