Installed Ubuntu on Raspberry Pi for Home Lab practice environment
Ensured that I have all of the tools I needed to put my Raspberry Pi in a protected case.
This includes the mini fan, and 2 heat sinks for both the CPU and the RAM.
Tested to ensure that the Raspberry Pi was operating and all of it’s functions. This included: power supply, display and output, network connectivity, USB ports, audio/video, and Bluetooth connections.
Installed Raspberry Pi Ubuntu for x86 on an SD card. Put the SD card in the slot on the Raspberry Pi. The picture above shows Ubuntu installation. Used the command line to install updates/upgrades, and there were 16 packages available for upgrade. Once finished, checked to ensure my ethernet had network connectivity, then sent a ping for Google.
