Raspberry installation notes

Barebone installation (Raspbian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye) as of July 2023)

Raspberry base install

Installation from blank SD-flash

Install Raspberry

Use Raspberry pi imager (download from https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/)

rpi-imager

First configure settings: click the gear icon, and set:

  • enable ssh, hostname, English language, Danish keyboard, possibly SSID, time zone, username (local) and password (remember to spell the password correctly).

then

Select operating system 'Raspberry Pi OS lite' and storage, an empty SD-flash of at least 16GB, then write.

When finished, mount the SD into the Raspberry

Start Raspberry

If everything is configured as above, then you just need to figure out the IP. On a Linux computer, you can find the Raspberry IP address using (if on the same local net):

sudo apt install net-tools nmap
nmap -sP 192.168.2.0/24

else

You need a screen and keyboard.

Log on to the Raspberry Pi

$ ifconfig
eth0: flags=4099<UP,BROADCAST,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
  ...
lo: flags=73<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING>  mtu 65536
  ...
wlan0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
       inet 10.197.217.175  netmask 255.255.252.0  broadcast 10.197.219.255
       inet6 fe80::f620:b431:69cc:44f4  prefixlen 64  scopeid 0x20<link>
       ether dc:a6:32:f4:0e:a4  txqueuelen 1000  (Ethernet)
       RX packets 486  bytes 41505 (40.5 KiB)
       RX errors 0  dropped 0  overruns 0  frame 0
       TX packets 421  bytes 43403 (42.3 KiB)
       TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0


In this case, the IP4 (inet) is 10.197.217.175.

If you don't get an IP, the wifi may not be set correctly (see the Network setup).


  • make a bootable SD card
  • Make a new user called local and set the group permissions
sudo adduser local gpio
  • Install general-purpose development packages

Additional packages

Install the following packages:

libreadline-dev
libopencv-dev
libgpiod-dev
gpiod
cmake
subversion
aptitude
telnet
ntp
ntpdate
nmap
lsof
sudo apt install libreadline-dev libopencv-dev libgpiod-dev gpiod cmake subversion aptitude telnet nmap lsof

and, if available

sudo apt install libcli11-dev

Install command line interface library (if not found by 'apt install libcli11-dev')

cd
cd git
git clone https://github.com/CLIUtils/CLI11.git
