Hello All,

Just got started with a new Pi 2 kit from Amazon. Went the route of a preinstalled microSD with Noobs. Installed Rasbian and hooked up mini wireless keypad I plan to use with RasPlex. Now for installing RasPlex. Is it ok to flash same SD card that came with it to get RasPlex installed on Pi 2??? I only ever plan on using this for RasPlex which leads to my next question:

Can Pi 2 boot directly to RasPlex. Thanks in advance.

You can use the same card that you received with your Raspberry Pi. If you bought a Canakit from Amazon, it should’ve come with a class 10 microSD.

Yes, your RPi2 will boot directly to Rasplex. Rasplex uses OpenELEC at the base (which is just a different operating system that can be used on the RPi).

Suggest a read of the website, specifically the FAQ’s.
