Got a Raspberry PI 2 for free yesterday ! So I decided to mess around with it today.

Setup

Setting it up was a breeze, we're on:

Linux raspberrypi 4.1.13-v7+ #826 SMP PREEMPT Fri Nov 13 20:19:03 GMT 2015 armv7l GNU/Linux

Setup all my dev tools on it. tmuxing and setting up an snmp server on it.

Compiling SNMP from source took less than 5 minutes. I guess that quad core arm v7 is quite fast afterall. (my android mobile is still running on a Dual Core arm- shame on me!)

Disk Full (16GB MicroSD ?) Really??

Almost forgot, I ran into an issue while i was copying stuff on it.

Disk was full, 3GB was used and i should still had at least 12 GB left (was a 16GB microsd).

So yeah, just deleted the 2nd partition, resized and set up a new partition, 

with start of 2nd partition being end of 1st partition, and end of that new partition being default.

Impressions:

Fast (booting/compiling)
Silent (can be left to compile at night) without waking you up
Power efficient (USB 6V port)
