Do **not** use an OctoPi image as it can cause unforeseen (avoidable) problems.
|
|
{: .warning }
|
|
Don't forget to enable SSH and configure a network if using Wi-Fi.
|
|
{: .info}
|
|
|
|
It is recommended to use a clean [Raspberry Pi OS 32-bit Lite](https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspios_lite_armhf_latest){:target="_blank"} image (previously called Raspbian).
|
|
|
|
We recommend you follow the RaspberryOS official [documentation](https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/installation/installing-images/){:target="_blank"} to flash and install the operating system to your SD card.
|
|
|
|
Once you have finished the installation and are connected via SSH, you can continue.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
Install the required packages and update the system:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo apt update --allow-releaseinfo-change && sudo apt upgrade
|
|
sudo apt install git dfu-util unzip
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Verify that your distribution's Python 3 package(s) are version 3.7 or newer.**
|
|
{: .alert }
|
|
|
|
Moonraker requires Python 3.7 and will not operate without it.
|
|
|
|
You can check the current Python version installed to your operating system with the following terminal command:
|
|
```
|
|
python3 --version
|
|
```
