Prototyping for Habitat

Raspberry Installation

I followed this guide: → https://pzwiki.wdka.nl/mediadesign/The_Ultimate_RPi_Installation_Guide
1. Download an OS image file

• RASPBIAN: https://www.raspberrypi.org/software/operating-systems/

2. Put image on SD Card

• Open terminal
• Find the disk that you are going to write to

diskutil list

• Find the disk /dev/disk<number>
• You need to unmount the SD Card before imaging

sudo diskutil unmountDisk /dev/disk<number>

• Then to image the disk with your image put in the following command

sudo dd bs=4m if=/path/to/your/image.img of=/dev/rdisk<number>

3. Enable SSH on the Pi

With a screen + keyboard

• Connect the Pi to a screen and keyboard.
• Run: sudo raspi-config
• Select Interfacing Options
• Navigate to and select SSH
• Choose Yes
• Select Ok
• Choose Finish

4. put the SD card back in the Pi and boot it up

5. Login into the Pi, using the ip address of the pi, or using the hostname of the machine.

ssh root@192.168.1.73
ssh pi@192.168.2.15
ssh pi@raspberrypi.local

6. Change the hostname (the name of the Pi)

You can change this name, by editing these two files:

sudo nano /etc/hostname
sudo nano /etc/hosts

Change /etc/hosts into:

127.0.0.1       localhost
::1             localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
ff02::1         ip6-allnodes
ff02::2         ip6-allrouters

127.0.1.1       newhostname

Reboot the Pi after you made these changes!

7. Reach your Pi using its hostname

You can use the hostname to ssh into the Pi, if you are in the same local network as your Pi:

ssh username@hostname.local

You can use this hostname also in the browser, to access the webserver on the Pi. Try to visit:

hostname.local
hostname.lan
