# Raspberry Pi Initial Setup
|
|
|
|
This repository is about the latest procedure for configuring Raspberry Pi boards in 2026. The reported procedure can be used on any Raspberry Pi board.
|
|
|
|
The procedure is about flashing the OS image, make ssh connection, both Wi-Fi and USB (Gadget-Mode), and finally upgrading the OS packages.
|
|
|
|
# Flashing the OS image
|
|
|
|
**Note: This guide is recommended only for the latest OS image or newer; the Trixi image is used in this guide.**
|
|
|
|
First you need to download the file `create_local_json.py`; it is recommended to download the file as a repository to organize your data. Then, open a terminal and change the path to the repository or file location:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
cd /path/to/the/file
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
now, the file should be visible using listing commands -like `ls` command-.
|
|
|
|
The file must be have executable permission, therefore run:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
chmod +x ./create_local_json.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now, run the command with the following flags to search online OS images and enable the Gadget mode -USB OTG-:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
./create_local_json.py --online --capabilities usb_otg --device-capabilities usb_otg
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The shell will give an output similar to:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
Wrote 184 images to os_list_local.rpi-imager-manifest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now, you have a new RPi-imager file that will allow us to set up the gadget mode.
|
|
|
|
**Note: you must double-click to open `Raspberry Pi Imager` App or right-click open with `Raspberry Pi Imager`; the recommended version is `v2.0.7` or newer.**
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Now, you can select your device, the OS type -desktop or lite-, and make the image customization —user, Wi-Fi, remote access (ssh), Pi Connect, and gadget mode—; **particularly, if you want to use Gadget mode, you must turn on remote access and gadget mode.**
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Finally, you must write the image on the micro-SD and get a customization like this:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
After RPi-Imager has finished, insert the micro-SD card into your device and connect it with a USB to micro-USB cable using the USB port; the other port must be used for only supply mode:
