(concerning my Raspberry Pi 5's dual-boot configuration)
I have an SSD adapter board (from the UK ... don't remember the name) mounted on the underside of the Raspberry Pi 5 board; it is from there that my RPi5 boots into Raspberry Pi OS.
An external drive housing, with an SSD card inside, is connected to the RPi5 via USB; it has the ARM version of UBUNTU 24.04. When I want to boot my RPi5 into UBUNTU I hold-down the keyboard space bar and (at the appropriate time) select '4' which causes the RPi5 to boot into UBUNTU.
----------------------------------------------------------
Now ... as to this business of the Raspberry Pi OS not supporting Digital Rights Management ('DRM') .... if correct is this documented anywhere ?
In my Google Searching I found that I am not the only person trying to get DRM working.
If RPi OS does not support DRM (not that drawing thing) ... then why does FireFox still have the 'play DRM' selection ? If DRM does not work in FireFox, in the Raspberry Pi OS, then the 'Play DRM' selection should be replaced with a notice clearly stating that DRM isn't functional.
Early this morning I sent an inquiry to the Raspberry Pi people in the UK .... asking them if the Raspberry Pi OS supports DRM. If I receive a response from them I will post it here.
