WEBVTT 00:00.080 --> 00:05.540 The very first step before using the Raspberry Pi is to flash an operating system on the SD card you 00:05.540 --> 00:07.670 have and do some configuration. 00:07.670 --> 00:13.580 In this lesson, I will show you how you can easily install the Raspberry Pi OS on your micro SD card, 00:13.580 --> 00:19.790 but also how to set up the Wi-Fi and an SSH connection so we can get access to the Pi. 00:19.790 --> 00:24.650 And first of all, you can go to the Raspberry Pi Dotcom website here okay. 00:24.680 --> 00:26.540 And you will click on software. 00:26.540 --> 00:29.450 So slash software in the URL. 00:29.450 --> 00:32.810 You can easily find this page we are going to download. 00:32.810 --> 00:34.670 So we are going to install Raspberry Pi OS. 00:34.670 --> 00:40.790 But to install that on the SD card we are going to download the Raspberry Pi Imager software. 00:40.820 --> 00:45.230 Okay so here I am on windows I'm going to click on download for windows. 00:45.230 --> 00:49.730 If you are on macOS or ubuntu you're going to click on those buttons here. 00:49.730 --> 00:51.590 So download for windows. 00:51.620 --> 00:54.020 Let's wait a bit so that it's downloaded. 00:54.020 --> 00:55.490 And now we can install it. 00:57.020 --> 00:58.970 So let's install it. 00:58.970 --> 01:00.410 So you might have a pop up. 01:00.410 --> 01:01.850 You click on yes. 01:01.850 --> 01:04.790 And then let's install. 01:05.870 --> 01:06.110 Okay. 01:06.140 --> 01:08.540 And when it's done you can just run it. 01:08.630 --> 01:10.400 So or not. 01:11.210 --> 01:18.770 And then if you just search on the bar here search Raspberry Pi Imager, you can easily find it. 01:18.800 --> 01:21.140 The first time I have to press. 01:21.320 --> 01:26.780 Yes, I have a pop up so that I can allow the software to run with the correct permissions. 01:26.900 --> 01:27.350 Okay. 01:27.380 --> 01:30.200 And that's the Raspberry Pi imager. 01:30.200 --> 01:34.130 So I have installed the 1.8.5 here. 01:34.160 --> 01:40.730 You don't necessarily need to have the exact same version, but make sure that you have at least 1.8 01:40.760 --> 01:41.300 now. 01:41.300 --> 01:48.020 And before you do anything with the SD card, make sure first that your computer here is connected to 01:48.050 --> 01:48.920 the Wi-Fi network. 01:48.950 --> 01:50.960 You want to use for your Raspberry Pi. 01:50.990 --> 01:55.220 So here what I've done is I have set my smartphone as a hotspot. 01:55.250 --> 01:55.640 Okay. 01:55.670 --> 02:00.770 And I have named the network your Wi-Fi network to make it easier for the course. 02:00.770 --> 02:06.990 So this is the network that I'm using for this computer and that I'm going to set also for the Raspberry 02:06.990 --> 02:07.410 Pi. 02:07.440 --> 02:07.800 Okay. 02:07.830 --> 02:13.710 Very important to have the same, because if your Raspberry Pi is not in the same network as your computer, 02:13.710 --> 02:15.840 you simply won't be able to find it. 02:15.870 --> 02:16.200 Okay. 02:16.230 --> 02:21.360 So first make sure that this is the Wi-Fi network you want to use for the Raspberry Pi and connect your 02:21.360 --> 02:22.560 computer to it. 02:22.590 --> 02:29.370 Then go back to the Raspberry Pi Imager, and what you can do now is to insert the SD card into your 02:29.370 --> 02:29.910 computer. 02:29.910 --> 02:31.230 So micro SD card. 02:31.260 --> 02:36.330 Maybe you need an adapter, maybe you need an SD card adapter or a USB adapter. 02:36.360 --> 02:38.910 But put your SD card into your computer. 02:38.910 --> 02:44.340 What we will do now is click on Raspberry Pi device, choose device here and you will choose. 02:44.340 --> 02:47.040 So here I am using the Raspberry Pi five. 02:47.070 --> 02:51.450 But if you were to use the Raspberry Pi four then you would click on that one okay. 02:51.480 --> 02:54.090 And you can see you have other versions as well. 02:54.090 --> 02:59.910 So I'm going to click on Raspberry Pi five because I'm installing Raspberry Pi OS on the five. 03:00.240 --> 03:00.720 Okay. 03:00.750 --> 03:05.730 Then you choose an operating system and we are going to choose simply the first one. 03:05.730 --> 03:07.200 So Raspberry Pi OS. 03:07.230 --> 03:09.540 We're going to take the 64 bit here. 03:09.570 --> 03:13.770 That's Debian Bookworm okay that I'm installing here. 03:13.770 --> 03:16.260 So let's click on that one. 03:16.260 --> 03:19.860 And then the storage is going to be the. 03:19.890 --> 03:21.570 So you can see here the SD card. 03:21.570 --> 03:26.880 So here I have 16GB the SD card that you have just mounted on your computer. 03:26.910 --> 03:27.270 All right. 03:27.300 --> 03:31.350 Once you have those three settings you can click on next. 03:31.350 --> 03:37.500 And here before you click on yes would you like to apply customization settings. 03:37.500 --> 03:40.140 You're going to click on Edit Settings. 03:41.160 --> 03:44.790 And well let's go through all the settings that we need. 03:44.790 --> 03:48.540 So first I don't know if those maybe are not checked. 03:48.540 --> 03:50.850 So you can check set hostname. 03:51.030 --> 03:53.400 Um maybe just put a Raspberry Pi okay. 03:53.430 --> 03:56.790 So we have this that we can easily find on the network. 03:56.790 --> 04:02.730 And a quick note is that if you are installing Raspberry Pi OS on a few Raspberry Pi boards. 04:02.760 --> 04:05.850 Maybe choose a different hostname for each board. 04:05.880 --> 04:07.740 But as for now, we just have one. 04:07.770 --> 04:09.210 Let's just keep it simple. 04:09.210 --> 04:10.500 We name it Raspberry Pi. 04:10.530 --> 04:14.460 Okay, then you're going to set a username and a password. 04:14.490 --> 04:15.780 This is very important. 04:15.780 --> 04:20.730 This is the well this is the user you are going to use to connect to the Raspberry Pi. 04:20.730 --> 04:24.000 So the username is going to be pi by default. 04:24.000 --> 04:25.110 You can just write this one. 04:25.110 --> 04:26.400 And then the password. 04:26.400 --> 04:32.010 Let's just write a custom password here and make sure that. 04:32.010 --> 04:34.860 So make sure that you write the correct password. 04:34.860 --> 04:40.470 Because if you make a typo here and then you try to connect to the Raspberry Pi, well if the password 04:40.470 --> 04:43.590 doesn't match, you will need to reinstall the OS again. 04:43.590 --> 04:47.520 Then you can click on configure the Wi-Fi. 04:47.520 --> 04:52.350 And you can see here it has automatically detected your Wi-Fi network. 04:52.350 --> 04:56.070 So that's the one that I'm connected to here okay. 04:56.520 --> 05:00.810 And this is the one we're going to use for the Raspberry Pi and for the password. 05:02.880 --> 05:06.000 I'm just gonna write the password just in case. 05:06.030 --> 05:06.270 Okay. 05:06.300 --> 05:08.250 For this Wi-Fi network. 05:08.250 --> 05:10.200 So make sure that you have the correct password, okay? 05:10.230 --> 05:11.520 You can also show the password. 05:11.520 --> 05:13.260 So I have also named my password. 05:13.290 --> 05:15.030 Your password to make it easier. 05:15.060 --> 05:15.360 All right. 05:15.390 --> 05:20.760 So very important here so that the Raspberry Pi can connect to the Wi-Fi network. 05:20.760 --> 05:26.610 And then you can go down and set local settings okay with the time zone. 05:26.610 --> 05:30.240 And if you have a keyboard layout that's different from a Qwerty. 05:30.270 --> 05:34.440 So US keyboard you can also check it here. 05:34.470 --> 05:34.800 Okay. 05:34.830 --> 05:37.740 And once you have set all of that you can go to services. 05:37.740 --> 05:42.090 And if it's disabled you enable SSH with password authentication. 05:42.090 --> 05:43.530 That's all you need to do. 05:43.530 --> 05:46.770 And then on options we don't have anything else to do. 05:46.800 --> 05:48.660 You can just keep those options. 05:48.690 --> 05:49.170 Okay. 05:49.170 --> 05:56.250 So to recap we have those four settings here with the hostname the username password the Wi-Fi and the 05:56.250 --> 05:58.800 locale plus the SSH. 05:58.830 --> 05:59.130 Okay. 05:59.160 --> 06:00.810 Those are the important settings. 06:00.810 --> 06:06.310 Then we click on save and then we click on yes to apply those custom settings. 06:06.850 --> 06:10.900 And you can see that, well all existing data will be erased okay. 06:10.930 --> 06:15.850 So everything that's on your SD card will be erased and replaced by the operating system. 06:15.850 --> 06:19.960 So make sure you don't have any file that's important that you want to keep. 06:19.990 --> 06:20.170 Okay. 06:20.200 --> 06:24.250 So back up your SD card if you ever had some stuff on it. 06:24.250 --> 06:26.140 And then you can click on yes. 06:26.170 --> 06:31.420 This is going to write the OS on the SD card and also to verify it. 06:31.420 --> 06:32.920 So it's going to take a few minutes. 06:32.920 --> 06:36.850 You can take a coffee break and come back for the following of the installation. 06:37.840 --> 06:39.910 So the writing is completed. 06:39.910 --> 06:42.460 But now it's going to also verify. 06:42.460 --> 06:44.710 So you have to wait a bit more. 06:45.640 --> 06:46.180 All right. 06:46.180 --> 06:50.740 And now the Raspberry Pi OS has been successfully flashed onto your SD card. 06:50.740 --> 06:54.340 So you can see you can click on, well continue. 06:54.340 --> 06:58.390 And you can remove the SD card from your computer. 06:58.390 --> 07:03.580 In the next lesson we are going to use this SD card and boot the Raspberry Pi for the first time.
