How to Burn OS in SD card for Raspberry pi

Urban Skate Park

This page explains how to install a Raspberry Pi operating system image on your SD card. You will need a other computer with an SD card reader to install the image.

 

Download the image

Official images for recommended operating systems are available to download from the Raspberry Pi website Downloads page.

Writing an image to the SD card

Before you start, don't forget to check the SD card requirements.

You will need to use an image writing tool to install the image you have downloaded on your SD card.

Win32DiskImager

  • Insert the SD card into your SD card reader. You can use the SD card slot if you have one, or an SD adapter in a USB port. Note the drive letter assigned to the SD card. You can see the drive letter in the left hand column of Windows Explorer, for example G:

  • Download the Win32DiskImager utility from the Sourceforge Project page as an installer file, and run it to install the software.

  • Run the Win32DiskImager utility from your desktop or menu.

  • Select the image file you extracted earlier.

  • In the device box, select the drive letter of the SD card. Be careful to select the correct drive: if you choose the wrong drive you could destroy the data on your computer's hard disk! If you are using an SD card slot in your computer, and can't see the drive in the Win32DiskImager window, try using an external SD adapter.

  • Click 'Write' and wait for the write to complete.

  • Exit the imager and eject the SD card.
