# First boot
|
|
|
|
Insert the flashed SD card into your Pi and connect any other hardware such a network cable, USB cable to the 3D printer, or a webcam.
|
|
|
|
Power on the Pi and let it boot up.
|
|
|
|
**The initial boot of MainsailOS may take some time to expand your "root" filesystem. The larger the SD card, the longer the first boot will take.**
|
|
{: .warning}
|
|
|
|
Initially the green LED on the Pi will be extremely active. After some time it will only intermittently flicker, indicating it has likely completed the boot sequence.
|
|
|
|
The web interface should now be ready to access on your local network:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
http://mainsailos.local
|
|
```
|
|
or
|
|
```
|
|
http://<IP address of your Pi>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Mainsail.cfg
|
|
|
|
**Important:** Include `mainsail.cfg` in your printer.cfg file
|
|
{: .warning}
|
|
|
|
Mainsail will not work correctly until `mainsail.cfg` is included in Klipper's configuration file. Open Klipper's default `printer.cfg` file in Mainsail's file manager located in `Settings > Machine`. If you do not have a `printer.cfg` file, you can create one. Add the following line to `printer.cfg`
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
[include mainsail.cfg]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and click on the`Save & Restart` button.
|
|
|
|
## Updates
|
|
|
|
Once you've successfully navigated to the Mainsail's web interface it is _strongly_ recommend that you run any available updates.
|
|
{: .info}
|
|
|
|
Klipper, Moonraker and Mainsail have fast development cycles and while we do our best to ensure MainsailOS ships as close to upstream as we can, there will always be a short delay before releases make it into MainsailOS' image.
|
|
|
|
It is recommended that you enable and use the [built in update-manager](../../update/update-manager) to perform any system updates, then update Klipper, Moonraker, Mainsail as needed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MainsailOS is now configured, and Klipper's configuration file, [printer.cfg], can be setup.
