This is a guide to install Raspberry Pi, I find it useful to use it to use RDP to access **without** using _windows._

**Download Rasperry Pi Image from here:**

[https://www.raspberr…aspberry-pi-os/](https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspberry-pi-os/)

1. Open a terminal in the application menu

2. Inserts a blank SD card into the card reader connected to the PC

3. Call up the menu by entering the command :

`sudo fdisk -l`

The list of the connected data carriers.

Locate the SD cards by their size and note the device address e.g. /dev/sdX.

1. Use the cd command to change to the directory with the IMG file you extracted from a ZIP file.

2. Now enter the command

`dd if=[name of image file].img of=/dev/sdX bs=2m`

To flash the file to the SD card which can be accessed under the device address from step 3. Name of the image file is only a placeholder for the actual name of the file extracted from the ZIP archive. The following process will take a while, so please be patient. During the flashing process no alerts will be displayed on the screen until the process is finished.

**Happy learning!**
