Using RoboPi with the Raspberry Pi
Downloading & Installing Raspbian (Debian for the Pi)
If you already have Raspbian running on your Raspberry Pi, you can skip to Step 4
Installing Raspbian on your Raspberry Pi is required before you can use and control RoboPi with your
Raspberry Pi. The Raspberry Pi Foundation has made this easy, by providing downloadable images of
the Raspbian operating system, with instructions for using PC's, Mac's and Linux computers to make a
bootable Raspbian SD card.
Step 1: Get a compatible Class 10 speed SD card, 8GB – 32GB in size.
You can find a database of SD cards that are known to work with the Raspberry Pi at:
http://elinux.org/RPi_SD_cards
Other SD cards are likely to work as well, I suggest Class 10 for speed.
Step 2: Download the latest Raspbian image
You can find the latest version of Raspbian at:

Step 3: Install Raspbian
The Raspberry Pi foundation provides excellent instructions on how to make a bootable Raspbian SD
card for your Raspberry Pi with your PC/Mac/Linux computer at:
