  • Same install on a 32GB sd: using my Rpi3B+.
  • Only difference: used medium install and only downloaded a few items to test

Aug 2 2017
Installed "Raspbian Buster with desktop and recommended software" (1)

256 GB SanDisk Ultra micoSDXC A1 card

Install with Etcher:

In microSD reader
Insert card in RPi4 and power up:
  • RPi4 (with 4 GB Memory) booted and changed GPU memory in "Preferences / Raspberry Pi4 Configuration" to [356] from [76]
( 2019-07-10-raspbian-buster-full - allows changing the allocated amount of memory in the RPi4)
(This appears to increase performance)

 

  • in add/remove software: install firefox ESR
  • in terminal:
 curl d.iiab.io/install.txt | sudo bash
  • chose maximum iiab install size
  • used middle selection for type of install (single point)

Photograph terminal screen when it shows: "Internet-In-A Box (IIAB) software install is complete"

 

Reboot (by hitting [enter] key)
  • Change iiab-admin's password before connecting your server to the Internet.
You can do this within http://box.lan/admin -> Utilities menu — or at the command line, if you type "passwd iiab-admin". 
  • in firefox enter (in command line): 10.0.0.208/admin with user:iiab-admin and the password you entered above ^
Starts Admin console
