This actually works out better as you don’t end up with Apple bloat-ware that you don’t need. You need to trick Boot Camp into installing the drivers as again it checks for Windows 7. Windows 10 works pretty well out of the box but you may want to install the track pad driver to enable right click and tap to click. To choose which OS to boot into hold option (alt) when the machine starts up. I had to do this 2 times as it came up again after the first reboot. Remember to scroll down to find the hidden ones (that would fit on the screen anyway). You can also customize all the privacy options at install time.
I’d installed Win 8 and 8.1 before even though they have the same blockers. Windows 10 isn’t officially supported on it and is actively blocked at many stages but there is a way to install it and it works well. According to Apple’s plan this is now obsolete and I should buy the new shiny with no Ethernet or optical drive. The first unibody one with the express card slot and door to easily remove the battery & hard disk. If you want to use an office suite on your Raspberry Pi 2 then you should install Raspbian and LibreOffice. It doesn’t run standard Windows applications. Unfortunately a Virtual Machine isn’t suitable for what I need this for.Īs a side note Windows 10 IoT Core is nothing like a normal version of Windows. I’ve gone for the Long Term Support Branch but other versions are available.
I find it’s best to let any new operating system dry for a while before using it in anger. I wanted to put this on an old machine as I don’t want to put an OS as wet as this on my main work box.
You can flash the SD card from any system but to get coding I required the full version of Windows 10 on a PC. I wanted to have a play do serious research with Windows 10 IoT Core for Raspberry Pi 2 (read more about that here). ☰ Menu Installing Windows 10 on an old MacBook Pro
