Linux and Raspberry Pi

Turn low-cost hardware into a dedicated POS device.

Saleculator is known to work smoothly on Linux and Raspberry Pi class devices, including minimal Debian appliance setups that boot directly to the PIN login screen.

Appliance boot

Minimal Debian can show the Saleculator bootstrap loader and continue directly to the PIN login screen.

Runtime ZIP

Vendors can deploy the same bundled JAR and libraries used for Windows, Linux, and Raspberry Pi.

Peripheral friendly

Printer, scanner, scale, HID, and serial workflows are included in the validation checklist.

Support scripts

Preflight and support-info scripts help technicians and AI assistants diagnose deployment issues.
