IIAB 6.5 runs on many platforms (such as [https://github.com/iiab/iiab/wiki/IIAB-Platforms Ubuntu 16.04, CentOS 7.4 and Debian 9.x]).  For most people, the easiest way to try it out is using a $35 Raspberry Pi 3 computer running the [https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/ Raspbian] OS, simply by running this 1-liner:

<center>
   curl [http://download.iiab.io/6.4/rpi/load.txt download.iiab.io/6.5/rpi/load.txt] | sudo bash
</center>

''Or if you want this to run significantly faster (typically < 1 hour) try one of these smaller selections of server apps instead:''

<center>
   curl [http://download.iiab.io/6.5/rpi/load-lite.txt download.iiab.io/6.5/rpi/load-lite.txt] | sudo bash
   curl [http://download.iiab.io/6.5/rpi/load-lite.txt download.iiab.io/6.5/rpi/load-min.txt] | sudo bash
</center>

'''An Ethernet (live Internet) cable installed into the back of your Raspberry Pi 3 is VERY strongly recommended during installation!'''

''Write to bugs @ iiab.io if you find bugs, and don't be shy posting to our public forums at http://iiab.io !''

Let it rip (either above 1-line install) while noting this [https://github.com/iiab/iiab/wiki/IIAB-Installation#do-everything-from-scratch "from scratch"] full installation can take <u>an hour or more</u> to complete on Raspbian.  The time depends on the speed of your microSD card &mdash; and how well-ventilated your Raspberry Pi 3 CPU is (its clock frequency is throttled above 80C to prevent damage; but monitor it on hot days using "vcgencmd measure_temp" if you're curious!)
