My search failed this time so I'm asking here.



Are there images that universally can be used across all Raspberry Pi versions?
Original, 2, B+ 3, etc. For Armv6 and Armv7 architecture



If they do exist can you point me in the right direction?



The idea is that one image gets deployed for older and newer Raspberry Pi so a non-technical person will not need to determine which Raspberry Pi they have.

  • CentOS for example only lists Raspberry Pi3, hence where my confusion originated from

All images available at https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/ are compatible with all Pi models.



Of course, this may change in the future

    • At the time of posting your answer, the latest Raspbian was actually the June '18 release. First Raspbian release must have been around May / June 2012. The wiki page is clearly not fully up to date.

    • @Dirk Ah, I see. It did seem kind of odd that the first recorded Raspbian release was a Wheezy version from 2013... I'll update.
