Raspberry Pi are a series of small, low cost, low power computers. | |||
Sugar can be run on a Raspberry Pi. You will need a display, keyboard and mouse. | |||
As of August 2017, the best to use is Sugar on a Stick, as it has many activities and has regular security updates. Sugar on a Stick is a spin of Fedora. | |||
Other methods are using Fedora, Debian and Ubuntu. | |||
Developers may focus on either Fedora or Debian when setting up a development environment for Sugar on Raspberry Pi, because Sugar development on generic computers is focused on those operating systems. | |||
== How to use Sugar on a Stick (SOAS) on a Raspberry Pi == | |||
- on another computer, visit [https://arm.fedoraproject.org arm.fedoraproject.org] and download the Sugar on a Stick image, | |||
- write the image to a microSD card, using software such as Fedora Media Writer, Etcher.io, or the [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Raspberry_Pi Fedora Raspberry Pi Documentation], or [https://unetbootin.github.io/ UNetBootin] | |||
- insert the microSD card into the Raspberry Pi, and turn it on, | |||
- answer the post-install questions; time zone, root password, and add a user, | |||
- at the login prompt log in with the added user, and Sugar will start. | |||
=== Security Warning === | |||
Remote access is pre-enabled through SSH, for both root and any user accounts. Risk can be reduced by choosing strong passwords in the post-install setup questions. Can be fixed after install with Terminal command; | |||
<nowiki> | |||
sudo chkconfig sshd off | |||
</nowiki> | |||
=== Security Updates === | |||
Security updates can be downloaded with Terminal command; | |||
<nowiki> | |||
sudo dnf update | |||
</nowiki> | |||
=== Fedora Media Writer === | |||
How to write an image to microSD card using [https://github.com/MartinBriza/MediaWriter/releases Fedora Media Writer (FMW)], which is available for Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows, Fedora Linux, and Ubuntu Linux as a flatpak, or from source. | |||
- download the raw.xz file | |||
- select and extract, result is a raw file | |||
- start Fedora Media Writer | |||
- select "Custom" | |||
- select the raw file | |||
- Insert microSD in Mini Card Reader and insert in USB port | |||
