Preparation
Make sure you have a good & reliable SD card and a proper power supply. The XZ-compressed should be written with an approved imaging tool capable of validating the burn.
Approved Imaging Tools
- USBImager a lightweight cross-platform imaging tool
- Balena Etcher an electron / node.js based cross-platform imaging tool (may contain spyware)
Boot
Insert SD card into a slot and power the board. (First) boot (with DHCP) takes up to 35 seconds with a class 10 SD Card and cheapest board.
Login
Login as root on HDMI / serial console or via SSH and use password 1234. You will be prompted to change this password at first login. Next you will be asked to create a normal user account that is sudo enabled (beware of default QWERTY keyboard settings at this stage).
