Raspberry-Pi Getting Starting

Raspberry Pi is a small microcomputer, with built in graphics processor. The graphics processor and the CPU share 256MB of RAM in its Model A and 512 in its model B version. There are two USB Port, one HDMI / RCA Video connector Ethernet controller ,SD Card(4GB ,Class4 Min) and general-purpose I/O Port. Figure shows a Raspberry Pi model B with an SD card inserted for scale. The Sd card is use to boot the operating system and work as our hardisk in computer system. In this tutorial we will mostly focuses on the basic setup to getting start with raspbery pi and preaparing the SD card with some tools.

Raspberry Pi can be interfaced with a USB keyboard and mouse and an HDMI monitor or RCA Video television port. The Ethernet gives us the power to connect with it internet. The SSH Server enables more options for networking and use the other keyboards to be interfaced. Internet can be connected using usb 3g adapter or wifi adapter.
