====== Raspian Linux ======

===== Installation =====

Install Raspian on a SD card by following the instructions in the Raspberry Pi [[http://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/installation/installing-images/|documentation]] pages.

===== Configuration =====

Open LXterminal on the desktop and run
  raspi-config
to modify the following settings:
  * Expand Filesystem
  * Change User Password
  * Internationalisation Options -> Change Keyboard Layout
  * Advanced Options -> Hostname, Serial

===== Default User =====

The default is user **Pi** with root privileges and without password. First, login as root and assign root a password.

Add a new user, assign this user the same privileges as pi:

  # adduser <user>
  # usermod -G adm,dialout,cdrom,sudo,audio,video,plugdev,games,users,netdev,input,spi,gpio <user>

Check privileges are assigned correctly:
  # id <user>

Remove super user privileges from **Pi**:
  * Go to the end of sudoers file and comment out root elevation for **Pi**: <code>
# visudo
#pi ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL</code>
  * Remove user pi from group sudo in /etc/group and /etc/gshadow, so that the new user remains:<code>
# vim /etc/group
sudo:x:27:<user>
# vim /etc/gshadow
sudo:x:27:<user></code>
  
Change autologon to the new <user>:
  # vim /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
  autologin-user=<user>
