   * //**Legacy Raspberry PI's**//
-R-PI models **earlier** than the 2B and the R-PI Zero have not been tested and are not supported.  They are far too slow to run a NAS application.
+R-PI models **earlier** than the **3B** are not supported.  OMV8 requires a 64-bit kernel and a 64bit userland which will not run on 32-bit hardware.
 Please do not post on [[https://forum.openmediavault.org/|OMV's forum]], expecting support for these models.
-  * **Debian Trixie**
-**Debian Trixie** is not, currently, supported by OMV7.  Use Debian Bookworm, in accordance with the install procedure following.

 Due to the rise in counterfeit media and media that reports a fake size, it’s recommended that all SD-cards or USB thumbdrives, new or used, be formatted with SDFormatter and tested with h2testw1.4 before using them.
