Running Raspberry Pi 1 OS on Raspberry Pi 3

I have a Raspberry Pi 1 running Raspbian. I tried running the SD card from it on a Raspberry Pi 3 but it didn't boot.

I've read various things about upgrading a Raspberry Pi 2 install to run on Raspberry Pi 3, but little for upgrading from 1 to 3.

Can anyone please help?

What OS can run on Raspberry Pi 3?

The Pi can run the official Raspbian OS, Ubuntu Mate, Snappy Ubuntu Core, the Kodi-based media centers OSMC and LibreElec, the non-Linux based Risc OS (one for fans of 1990s Acorn computers). It can also run Windows 10 IoT Core, which is very different to the desktop version of Windows, as mentioned below.

Is it possible to dual boot a Raspberry Pi?

The Raspberry Pi, itself a small $35 Linux computer, isn't particularly well known for dual booting, but it can be done; all we need is a little help. PINN is a website which creates a custom installation script tailored to our specific requirements.

Can you install different OS on Raspberry Pi?

The Raspberry Pi imager which can be downloaded from its official website contains the option of the PINN by which we can run multiple operating systems on the same storage device.

All you need to do is update the firmware of your raspberry Pi while the sd card is still plugged in your RPi 1,

  • Step 1, Update the System, sudo apt-get update

  • Step 2, Upgrade the System sudo apt-get upgrade

  • Step 3, Update the firmware itself, sudo apt-get install rpi-update

Reboot and shutdown your RPi 1.
