Instructions for Using the PiAssist.sh

In order to use the script file, you have to get it either on the pi itself or on a usb drive and have that plugged into the pi.

If you have your Pi on the network either via WiFi or Ethernet, you can either download the file directly to the pi with wget or move it from another computer with WinSCP;

If you want to download the script directly to your Pi, you will need to be at the command line interface and not in Emulation Station. To do this, you should just need to "Quit Emulation Station" from the Start menu.

To download directly to the pi with wget, use the following command:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Death259/PiAssist/master/PiAssist.sh

Once you have the file accessible to your pi, then you need to use the following command:

chmod +x PiAssist.sh

This allows the script file to be run/executed.

Once you have done that, you can run the script with:

./PiAssist.sh

Some parts of the script require it to be run as ROOT. In order to do this, you can use the following command:

sudo ./PiAssist.sh
