Use the Raspberry Pi Imager which can be downloaded from the Raspberry Pi Software Webpage.Ī distribution I'd suggest is Raspberry Pi OS Lite.


It temporarily allows the user (if you’re not already logged in as root) the ability to run these commands if your user name is in a list of users ('sudoers').Īpt-get is the package manager and update is the command we are giving it. Sudo (also known as super user) is a command that you will see a lot, specifically with high security commands.


This command tells the Pi to retrieve the latest package information and tells the package manager what needs updating. Access it by opening the terminal and type the following and hit Enter: language:bash In case you skipped the step in the set up wizard or need to update software packages in the future, we can update the software package on the Pi through the Command Line Interface (CLI). Make sure to write down the password somewhere safe before saving! You can also change the username as well. Warning: We recommend changing your password from the default to secure your Raspberry Pi.
