Getting Started

Check the build-guide PDF for the lastest update on build and setup

1. Use the Raspberry Pi Imager tool to flash an SD card with the latest image

   • Choose the Raspberry Pi OS Lite (32-bit) image for best speed
   • Click the gear icon to also setup WiFi and SSH or you may use a display and keyboard

2. SSH into the pi and update the kernel and reboot

• If the Pi imager was used, then you have the latest kernel, and may then only use apt-get update, skip reboot, and continue onto part 3

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install raspberrypi-kernel

sudo shutdown -r now

3. Run the setup script

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/carboncomputers/piberry/main/pi/setup.sh | bash

Details

• In /boot/cmdline.txt, edit fbcon=font:VGA8x8 to change the font/size if you wish. See fbcon for more details
• Long holding the "End Call" key (~3 seconds) will trigger KEY_POWER and safely shutdown the pi
• Holding the "End Call" button during power up will put the keyboard into bootloader mode; it will now appear as a USB storage device and you can drag'n'drop the new firmware (*.uf2) into the drive and it will reboot with the new firmware
