Summary
Install Raspbian OS on a Raspberry Pi using a 16 GB SD card
Requirements
- PC with SD card reader
- Operating system: Ubuntu 18.04 bionic amd64 / Windows 10
Description
Ubuntu
Check device id
Insert the SD card in the SD card reader and determine the devices on the machine by issuing following command in a terminal
lsblk NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT sda 8:0 0 477G 0 disk ├─sda1 8:1 0 953M 0 part ├─..... mmcblk0 179:0 0 14,6G 0 disk └─mmcblk0p1 179:1 0 14,6G 0 part
SD card is device mmcblk0 which contains a partition mmcblk0p1, in the case this partition is autmatically mountet unmount the partition with
umount /media/<username>/<dev-id>
Download image
Download newest raspbian desktop from https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/ The current version at time of the documentation was 2019-09-26-raspbian-buster-full.zip
Unzip and install
- Copying a zipped image to the SD card and showing the progress by using following command
unzip -p 2019-09-26-raspbian-buster-full.zip | sudo dd of=/dev/mmcblk0 status=progress conv=fsync 6799950336 bytes (6,8 GB, 6,3 GiB) copied, 555 s, 12,3 MB/s 13303808+0 records in 13303808+0 records out 6811549696 bytes (6,8 GB, 6,3 GiB) copied, 569,647 s, 12,0 MB/s
Verify image [optional]
This is done by copying back the image with dd from the SD card into another file and compare that file to the original image with diff.
- The output of the first copying dd command shows the number of written blocks, so you need only to copy this number
xxx+0 records in
- then copy these xxx=13303808 blocks from the image to a new file
sudo dd bs=4M if=/dev/mmcblk0 of=from-sd-card.img count=13303808
- Unzipp the original image
unzip 2019-09-26-raspbian-buster-full.zip
- truncate to the other size
sudo truncate --reference 2019-09-26-raspbian-buster-full.img from-sd-card.img
- and compare
diff -s 2019-09-26-raspbian-buster-full.img from-sd-card.img Files 2019-09-26-raspbian-buster-full.img and from-sd-card.img are identical
Windows
Download your prefered image from the offical raspberrypi website. For this guide we're going to use the Raspberry Pi Imager. You can download it here.
Start Raspberry Pi Imager. Select your OS from the harddisk, SD-Card and press write. After the Imager is done you can plug the SD-Card in your Raspberry Pi. The standard login for raspbian is: Username: pi Password: raspberry
