Software
Raspbian installation
Based on the NOOBS install: https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/noobs/
SD card must be FAT formatted, at least 8GB and preferably 16GB: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/installation/noobs.md
It's handy to have a usb keyboard and mouse to navigate the install process once the prepared SD card is on the rPi.
Cura
I had issues trying to run Cura on the Raspbian, it kept crashing. It seems like someone has compiled a version and posted it in the ultimaker forums that will run on the RPi processor: https://community.ultimaker.com/topic/28746-experimental-cura-build-for-raspberry-pi-4-now-available/
Downloads: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/s43vqzmi4d2bqe2/AAADdYdSu9iwcKa0Knqgurm4a?dl=0
Install procedure:
Once the appimage file is downloaded (I used Cura-mb-master-armhf-20191209.AppImage), make the file executable
> chmod +x Cura-mb-master-armhf-20191209.AppImage
Then you just need to run the app image file:
> ./Cura-mb-master-armhf-20191209.AppImage
Camera
From https://projects.raspberrypi.org/en/projects/getting-started-with-picamera/3
Once it's plugged in, Camera just needs to be toggled on in the config -> "interfaces"
Once restarted, you can take a picture like this:
> raspistill -o Desktop/image.jpg
This will activate the camera module and show a view finder, until you hit "Enter" and it saves a picture to the specified location.
