Hello, I just picked up a Pi 2 Zero W as my old first gen Zero was not keeping up with the newer OSes.
I grabbed the Nov 19th 3gb 64 bit Bookworm image and put it on the 2 Zero.
Straight out of the gate, both Chromium and Firefox recommend you don't run them with less than 1GB of ram, and when I do it anyway, the device just locks up- or runs so slowly it might as well be locked up.
I launched Dillo, it locked up, or at least failed to connect with connect.raspberrypi.com. Wifi is up as sudo apt update worked fine.
I tried to install midori, and sudo apt install midori failed to find midori.
Would an older OS image or perhaps a 32bit version be a better way to go?
Do any of the images include midori or a browser that a 2 Zero can actually launch and use?
