→‎Using the pre-built Raspberry Pi Image
We have created an customised version of the Raspberry Pi Lite image with Cumulus MX pre-installed and ready to go.
 
This is designed to be what is called a "headless" installation, that is youto canbe run it on a Raspberry Pi without a monitor or keyboard attached to it. As such the image does not contain a Graphical User Interface (GUI), it is a command line only installation. It is possible to add the GUI later if you want it.
 
=== Pre-Installation Steps ===
You are going towill need:
* A suitable SD card for your Raspberry Pi
:A minimum size of 16GB is recommended. Be sure to buy a good quality card.
:You can use an SSD instead if preferred [with the minor complication that in a later step you will need non-WiFi access to the Raspberry Pi (keyboard and monitor, or SSH over ethernet) as you cannot enter the WiFi details from a Windows PC to the linux SSD due to the different file system used]
* An image installer to copy the image file to the SD card
:The [https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/installation/installing-images/ Raspberry Pi site] has a list of suitable software for your operating system. Scroll down to "Writing the image".<br />
: This guide with useuses Raspberry Pi Imager
* The image file to install
:Download the latest image file from here: [//{{SERVERNAME}}/Downloads/rpi-CMX-3.9.4.zip rPi Cumulus MX 3.9.4].
