------------------------------------------------------------------------ *GETTING STARTED WITH* *PearlPi for the Raspberry Pi 2 (RPi2)* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ************* Installing Image to your Raspberry Pi2 **************** First extract the file on Linux terminal type tar -zxvf PearlPi-RPi2-LXDE-KODI-DEV-08-08-15.img.tar.gz then To burn image to microSD card run this command from your terminal window sudo dd if=/home/scott/Downloads/PearlPi-RPi2-LXDE-KODI-DEV-08-08-15.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 Please take note that you must use full system path after if= ...above example I, scott downloaded file to my Downloads directory. NOW .. Very Important Here.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To find out the location of your microSD card on Linux simply mount image and type fdisk -l -> this command will show you your /dev/? location. Mine was /dev/mmcblk0 as I burned it from a netbook with builtin sdcard slot however if I put my microSD card in for instance a USB microSD card READER your /dev location would probably be something like /dev/sda. YOU TYPE IT WRONG YOU COULD LOOSE DATA on a HD on your system. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ root password = letmein default username = pi default pi password = letmein The very first thing to do as soon as you boot up is run "* sudo raspi-config "*. Choose the very first option which is expand .. This will expand your main root directory to fill your microSD card. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *KODI INFO* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To launch the Kodi Media Center on PearlPi simply start it from your main menu.
