Copy the image to the SD card
Recommend 16 gig with 48 mbps or better
Make micro SD card on Unix/Linux system
Detailed instructions: http://elinux.org/RPi_Easy_SD_Card_Setup#Flashing_the_SD_Card_using_Linux_.28including_on_a_Pi.21.29
- Determine the device for the card reader
- /dev/mmcblk0 for the built in reader on my laptop.
- /dev/sdb for a USB card reader
- Copy the image to the SD card:
dd bs=4M if=hivetool073.img of=/dev/sdb
Windows - Transfer Pi Image to micro SD card
raspberrypi.org recommends using:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/
Proceed with caution, an incorrect setting could corrupt your PC or attached storage.
Detailed instructions: http://elinux.org/RPi_Easy_SD_Card_Setup#Flashing_the_SD_Card_using_Windows
- REMOVE any other USB memory devices from your computer.
- Plug micro SD Card in adapter, confirm device letter using Windows Explorer.
- Start Win32DiskImager
- Browse to source file (image in downloads directory)
- Make absolutely sure the drive letter (destination) to right of source file is the SD card
- Check MD5 hash (0c1f26195db2f1a158bd88e95448fedb) this takes a few minutes
- Click on Write, this takes a few more minutes
- Confirm successful write then exit
- The SD card image is called "boot" 25 files now visible in Windows explorer
- Windows will report 40 megabytes free space on the SD card
You are now ready to eject micro SD card and place into the Pi
Windows - Setup Pi Operating System
- Install micro SD card into bare Pi, power up with Ethernet or for (non windows use local terminal)
- If using Ethernet determine IP address by viewing latest entry in access point
- Identify IP in the DHCP table named "raspberrypi"
- On a Windows PC setup a new remote desktop connection (RDP), enter target IP address of Pi
- If the Pi is found you will be prompted to enter the default user "pi" and password "raspberry"
- Leave the default module as "sesmon-Xvnc"
- Once connected you will see the Pi desktop, Menu to "preferences"sub "raspberry pi configuration"
- Under menu "system tab" "expand file system", then OK then reboot from main menu last item
- Reestablish remote desktop connection using saved RDP Windows settings, login to desktop
- Under menu "localisation" tab set your timezone Local, Language preferences
- Under menu "system tab", Change default Password and the Hostname to match a hive name to be monitored, Ok to save & reboot
- Under menu "system tab" the remaining settings should be default unless a Pi camera is attached
- Open a Terminal Window, at command prompt run; "sudo apt-get update", also "sudo apt-get upgrade" to get latest patches
- Plug in WiFi dongle, configure WiFi authentication on desktop, top RH corner, dual monitors icon
- If WiFi connects, a signal strength indicator will replace the monitors icon, it will be necessary to enter the security key
You are now ready to configure Hivetool.
