When you first power up the board with Raspbian you will get the raspi-config
tool. There are a few things to note here:
- Make sure to expand the filesystem, or you won't have enough room to install the JDK.
- If you are using the device primarily with JavaFX, you will probably not want to select "Enable Boot to Desktop". JavaFX on the Pi takes over the whole screen and does not interact with the Linux desktop.
- Under "Advanced Options" you can select "Memory Split" to allocate memory to the graphics processor. A 50/50 split will let you get most use out of JavaFX accelerated graphics.
- If you are using JavaFX over ethernet, it can be convenient to turn on the SSH server under "Advanced Options". Since JavaFX takes over input devices, it can be hard to stop an application if you don't have an SSH connection to it from another machine.
