SparkyLinux Operating System Launches for Raspberry Pi, Based on Debian Stretch

This is the first release of the Debian-based SparkyLinux operating system to come to the tiny Raspberry Pi SBCs, most probably supporting both Raspberry Pi 2 and Raspberry Pi 3 single-board computers. The ARMhf port of SparkyLinux was in development for the last couple of months. Based on the latest Debian GNU/Linux 9 “Stretch” operating system, SparkyLinux 4.7 for ARMhf includes all the Raspberry Pi scripts and packages, and it’s distributed in two flavors, a graphical version using the lightweight Openbox window manager and a text-based Lite edition that lets you customize the OS as you see fit.
