Raspberry Pi is an amazing device that can be used as a desktop or a server. The thing is that it is small in size and can be used for various purposes. If you are looking for a simple way to install Ubuntu on Raspberry Pi then I will suggest you use the Raspbian image. Raspbian is a Debian-based operating system and it comes with all the essential software needed to run the desktop or a server. Raspbian images are easy to install on Raspberry Pi. But if you don’t have a USB drive then you can use another method to install it.
Boot your Raspberry Pi Before installing Raspbian, make sure that your Raspberry Pi is turned on and has enough power. To turn on your Raspberry Pi, connect the power supply and press the power button for 5 seconds. Once the power is turned on, your screen will be black and you need to press the power button again to enter the setup menu.
Install Raspbian If you want to install Raspbian on your Raspberry Pi then open the terminal and type Sudo apt-get update. It will update your repository and it will take some time to download the package files. Once the download is completed, it will prompt you to enter your password. Once you enter the password, the installation will start.
Finish installation Once the installation is done, you will see a message “Raspberry Pi” on your screen. It means that Raspbian is successfully installed. Now you can use your Raspberry Pi as a desktop or a server.
