On Linux, you'll see the full Stretch Lite OS. Once selected, you'll see files similar to this:
Once you reinsert, on Mac and Windows, you should see a new device named boot. This step is only necessary because Etcher automatically unmounts the SD card.īefore we put the microSD card into the Pi, we'll need to edit some files.
Just select the image, select your MicroSD card, and flash! 3.Flash OS to MicroSD With EtcherĮtcher makes things simple. In this case, we'll use it to flash the Stretch Light OS to the MicroSD card. Download EtcherĮtcher is an awesome tool, created by balena, that lets us burn images to SD cards & USB drives. The "lite" means that there just isn't a GUI desktop included in the OS, so we'll be doing everything via the command line. Raspbian Stretch Lite is the "lite" version of the operating system for Raspberry Pis. It also comes with an adapter, which is how I was able to insert the MicroSD card into my computer. I recommend a 32GB SanDisk MicroSD card it worked perfectly. Materials:įirst, you'll have to flash the microSD card with an operating system. Since we'll be controlling the device via command line, you'll want to be comfortable with the terminal. Thus, when it comes online, it will be available on your local network for you to start using the Pi. Since the Pi Zero W is WiFi enabled, we can preconfigure the operating system to enable SSH and have the WiFi credentials when we are first powering the device. The Pi Zero and the Pi Zero W makes this even harder by requiring you to have a USB adapter (for the mouse and keyboard), and a mini HDMI adapter (for the monitor). The recommended way to set up any Raspberry Pi is with a keyboard, mouse, and monitor. These directions are also compatible with Raspbian Jessie. Update : This post has been updated to use Raspbian Stretch.
