2014-10-04: Installation of OctoPi
Hardware:
Since version 0.1.3 there is a python dependency on numpy. As a result; if you don’t already have numpy the install can take in excess of 30 minutes to complete on a pi. Just be patient and let it run and eventually the plugin install will finish. If your device have less than 512MB of ram your numpy installation will most likely fail. Install the developer toolkit on any machine. Run ddev release build octoprint to build the package. Download the Datadog Agent. Upload the build artifact to any host with an Agent and run datadog-agent integration install -w path/to/octoprint/dist/datadogoctoprint.whl.
Raspberry Pi B+ (512MB RAM; 4 USB ports)
WiFi
Bluetooth keyboard/mouse
HDMI -> monitor
16 GB MicroUSB drive

I also tried with bigger block size. It took twice as long to write:

Installing Octoprint
The disk image did not work. The ACT (green) LED was on but not blinking.
I downloaded the image to Win7 and downloaded the Win32ImageWriter app. It transferred the image at ~3.4MB/s, at least 3 times faster than the Mac.
Plugged in keyboard, wifi adapter, HDMI cable. Enabled the Raspberry to use the entire 16GB disk.
I downloaded and installed the 'devel' version of Octoprint:
