Meet the Raspberry Pi

A few weeks ago I got my Raspberry Pi from element14. It's time to wipe away the dust from it:


If you don't know what Raspberry Pi is,  visit http://www.raspberrypi.org website.

I wanted to install raspberry by myself. I took an empty SD card and loaded to it Raspbian installer. Raspbian is OS dedicated to Raspberry Pi. You can find a manual how to install Raspbian here.

After long waiting and thew crashes I understood that installation failed.

I decided to choose different approach. I downloaded Raspbian image from here and  used Win32DiskImager tool to write this image to SD card.

Finally, Raspbian started.
