So you've got some Raspberry Pi installations that can Dual Boot and so forth, but, I thought, I'm gonna take this to the extreme. I'm gonna Quad Boot my Raspberry Pi; stick around to see how I did it
All right, so, we're gonna Quad Boot this Raspberry Pi
with Rasbian, with the pixel desktop
Retropie
Rasplex, which is Plex
And Kodi
And you'll be able to choose what installation of Kodi you want from there aswell
So let's pop out on the computer and see how this gets installed
Okay, so the girst thing you're gonna do is to Multi-Boot Pi dot com
Ok, and once that loads up you'll see straightaway Quad Boot there
however, if it's a little bit older this video, we've got to click on Builds
Once we click on Builds we will see Quad Boot, and if you scroll down, Triple Boot and Multi Boot
so the one we want is Quad Boot so we click on "Continue Reading"
Now, the first link there I accidentally clicked on that, and guess what? That goes no way, so I'll go back
and scroll up and it says "Click here to download" so click there
It opens up a Google Drive page and click "Download Anyway"
all that's saying is that the images are over 2 Gigabytes and that it's probably gonna take a while to download
so, I'm gonna speed this up
Ok and there it's finished, sorry it myst have just been over 2 Gigabytes
and now what we will do is that we will write those files to a SD memory card
Now one thing to know is that tou will require a memory card that is bigger than 8 Gigabytes
So, just make sure you've got that on hand
Now, this quad boot install does only work on a Raspberry Pi 2 or Raspberry Pi 3
so, if you don't have a Raspberry Pi 2 or 3, unfortunately Quad Boot won't work for you, on this image at least
Ok, so, what we'll need to do is open up the removable disk which is the SD card, the Micro SD
And, I've had a quick look over the readme file, which you can as well
but what we need to do is to copy all of these files
directly onto the SD Card
Now what will happes is that once this boots on the Raspberry Pi it will take care of the rest
so, this will speed up and we'll get this finished in a sec
Ok, so that's done now, so, we can eject that SD Card
And let's start in the Raspberry Pi and see how it goes
Alright so now we've got that on the Micro SD it's time to go on to the Pi and let's see how it runs
Alright, so here we are with booting up the installer on the Raspberry Pi
Let's speed this up just a little bit
Ok, here we come to the installer where we can select which operating systems we want to install
so in this case
we want to install Rasbian
Retropie
RasPlex
Sorry I changed Rasbian to Raspberry Multi Boot
So we've got the four there, we've got Openelec
RasPlex
Rasbian
and Retropie
Now all we need to do is click install
and say Yes
And now we've got a long wait so I'll speed this up so it finishes a lot quicker
Then we're going to hit OK
And now you can select what operating system you wanna boot to
In our case we will boot through each one
So, first boot into Openelec and we'll speed this up just a little bit
Oh, no need to
And we've got it so after the "Welcome to Openelec" springs
And we'll just quickly walk through the setup and we're done, so, that's Kodi set up
Now you notice under "Programs" we've got the other operating systems there so we can boot straight out of there into Rasbian
Now of course there the Raspberry Pi goes at full reboot
in order to launch into Rasbian
and this is with the new PIXEL desktop
and look at that
Ok so we've got the launcher down at the bottom
That feels really really nice
Alright, again here's the shortcuts to the other operating systems so we'll just launch into RetroPie
Ok so we'll quickly confugure the Xbox 360 controller
Now we're into RetroPie, again you can see that they're already set up there with the shortcuts to the other operating systems
so
We're going to RasPlex
And there we have it
And done
So now we have RaspberryPlex, Openelec, Kodi and RetroPie
all on one Raspberry Pi
Awesome
Well, for those who like a bit of choice when it comes to Raspberry Pi, I highly reccomend the Quad Boot image
