Installing Raspbian

The official Raspberry Pi website has detailed information on how to install Raspbian. Please follow those steps and see you again once you can connect to your Raspbian Desktop! (or console, if that's what you prefer).

As a note, my development computer is Windows based, so I use Etcher to burn the SD cards, as Raspberry Pi recommends.

  1. Launch Raspberry Pi Configuration from the Preferences menu
  2. Navigate to the Interfaces tab

Set the host name of your Pi

  1. Launch Raspberry Pi Configuration from the Preferences menu
  2. Navigate to the System tab

Enable VNC server (optional)

  1. Launch Raspberry Pi Configuration from the Preferences menu
  2. Navigate to the Interfaces tab
