# Raspberry Pi 3 image spec
This repository contains the files with which the image referenced at
https://wiki.debian.org/RaspberryPi3 has been built.
## Option 1: Downloading an image
See https://wiki.debian.org/RaspberryPi3#Preview_image for where to obtain the latest pre-built image.
## Option 2: Building your own image
If you prefer, you can build a Debian buster Raspberry Pi 3 image using:
```shell
git clone --recursive https://github.com/Debian/raspi3-image-spec
cd raspi3-image-spec
sudo ./vmdb2/vmdb2 --output raspi3.img raspi3.yaml --log raspi3.log
```
## Installing the image onto the Raspberry Pi 3
Plug an SD card which you would like to entirely overwrite into your SD card reader.
Assuming your SD card reader provides the device `/dev/sdb`, copy the image onto the SD card:
```shell
sudo dd if=raspi3.img of=/dev/sdb bs=5M
```
Then, plug the SD card into the Raspberry Pi 3 and power it up.
The image uses the hostname `rpi3`, so assuming your local network correctly resolves hostnames communicated via DHCP, you can log into your Raspberry Pi 3 once it booted:
```shell
ssh root@rpi3
# Enter password “raspberry”
```
## Reproducibility
The image currently uses http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20171007T213914Z/ for ensuring a reproducible build.
