Getting Started

Here are the steps I took configure a brand new Raspberry Pi 4 Model B.

Raspberry Pi OS Image

My Raspberry Pi did not include a OS-boot Micro SD card. I wanted to flash the OS Image to a new Micro SD card.

1. Download the Raspberry Pi OS Imager from https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/, or for Windows.
2. Run the Raspberry Pi OS Imager installation.
3. Mount the 32GB Micro SD Card onto your machine.
4. Open the Raspberry Pi OS Imager.
5. OS: choose Raspbian: Raspberry Pi OS (32-bit) Debian Port w/ Raspberry Pi Desktop.
6. SD: choose the mounted 32GB Micro SD Card.
7. Now make any last minute Advanced Settings changes as necessary.
8. Select Write to flash the Micro SD Card with the OS Image (may take a few minutes).

Insert the Micro SD Card into the unpowered Raspberry Pi 4, for the first time. Proceed through the rest of the OS Installation on the Pi.
