3. Operating System Installation
The system uses the Raspbian distribution, which is a version of Linux. It is necessary to download and install the
distribution image and install it on a memory card in a format that is compatible with the RPi. It is not possible to
simply copy the distribution image from a Windows PC to a memory card; instead, a special image writer
program is needed. Suitable programs are Win32 Disk Imager {
WDImg
} and HDD Raw Copy Utility {
HDDRaw
}.
This guide is based on Win32 Disk Imager. Download and install the program, and place a shortcut to the
program on the Desktop. Mark the shortcut to run as Administrator.
Now, download the Raspbian distribution from {
Raspbian
} and extract it to the Desktop. Write this image to a 4
GB or larger micro-SD memory card as follows:
Connect a card reader/writer suitable for a micro-SD memory card to the PC. Insert
the SD or micro-SD memory card into the card reader/writer. Some older micro-SD
cards and card reader/writers are incompatible, so it may be necessary to install the
micro-SD card in a full-size SD card carrier or adapter and insert the carrier into the
reader. Now, determine the memory card’s drive letter from My Computer or
Explorer. Open Win32 Disk Imager.
A drive letter is shown in the Device field in upper-right of Win32 Disk Imager. If you have more than one device
plugged into the PC, select the letter corresponding to your memory card (drive letter E: in example above).
Click the folder icon to right of the Image File input field. Windows Explorer will open (below). Navigate to the
location where the Raspbian image is located and select the file. In the example below, the image file is located
on the Desktop but it has not yet been selected. Click Open.
