Hello,

I would like to ask if someone has already tried out the Raspberry PI 4 64bit balena OS.  
Which OS is advised to use with the RPI4 in terms of best compatibility?  
Could I let Ubuntu/Debian 64 bit run in my container with WIFI, CSI Camera, Hardware Watchdog functionality working?

Thanks!

Hi @rquant,

As a balena team member, I’d of course suggest balenaOS : )

Then I’m curious to hear more from our community about this.

If I may ask, have you tried running your containers on balenaOS already? Do you have any specific issues or questions that we could help with?
