* Download the Raspberry Pi Imager [here](https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/).

* Click "Choose OS" > "Raspberry Pi OS (other)" > Raspberry Pi OS Lite (64-bit).
* Click "Select SD card" and select the SD card you want to install the OS to. **Be carefull** if you acidentially select the wrong drive (e.g. your important USB drive with goverment confidential document on) **all data on it will be earesed**** because it will be formated in order to install the OS.
* Click "Next" > "Edit settings"
* Click "Next" > "Edit settings".
* Input a hostname (e.g. "pxm"), a username and password (pxm and a password that you can remember or that you've written down somewhere) and **don't** set-up a wifi, because the software is using the wifi module.
* Go to the tab "Services" > "Enable SSH".
* Now click on "Save" > "Yes" > "Yes" and now you can sit back and wait while the imager is installing the operating system on the MicroSD card
* Now click on "Save" > "Yes" > "Yes" and now you can sit back and wait while the imager is installing the operating system on the MicroSD card.
* When the imager is done, plug in the MicroSD card into the Raspberry Pi via the MicroSD slot.

* Before plugging in the powersupply connect the Pi via a Ethernet cable router.
* Now plug in the power and go to the webpage of your router. From there go into the list of all devices that are online. This is router/manufacturer specific, so if you don't know how to do it take a look in the manual for the router online or as in the manual that was in the box with the router.
* After 30 seconds to 2 minutes you should see your Pi with the hostname you gave it.
* The Pi should have an IP address. Copy it or write it down.
* Now open a terminal on your computer.
* Windows: Press the windows key on your keyboard and type the word "cmd" and hit enter.
* MAC: Press "command"+"space" and type "terminal" and hit enter.
* Linux: Hey, I know that you as a linux user already know how to do this, so I don't need to explain how to do this ;)
* Now in the terminal type the following command: `ssh <username you set for the pi>@<ip address of the pi>`
* A promt should appear to enter a password. Just enter the password you set for the PI.
* Now comes the fun part of just copy pasta ;)
