Creating the CubeSatSim Raspberry Pi Image

These are the exact steps I used to create the Pi image, so you can recreate it if you want:

1. Download the latest Pi OS Lite image

https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspios_lite_armhf/images/raspios_lite_armhf-2021-05-28/2021-05-07-raspios-buster-armhf-lite.zip

2. Mount boot and create the wpa_supplicant.conf file and ssh file so that when it boots it has WiFi and SSH is enabled.

3. Logged in using ssh with username pi and password raspberry

4. ran sudo raspy-config

5. Under System Options set hostname to cubesatsim and Boot/Auto Login set to Console Auto Login. Don't reboot immediately

6. Under Localization Options, I set the Locale (unchecked en.GB and checked en.US.UTF-8 UTF-8 and C.UTF-8), Timezone (US Eastern), Keyboard (), and WiFi Country (set to US - if you don't do this, WiFi won't work on 3B or 4B)

7. Edited the Message of the Day file sudo vi /etc/motd Added these lines to it:

This Raspberry Pi image has the CubeSatSim v1.0 software installed

and runs automatically as systemd cubesatsim.service. For more

information see https://CubeSatSim.org. To update

to the latest version, enter this command:

CubeSatSim/update

To see configuration options, enter this command:

CubeSatSim/config

8. Manually edited the /boot/config.txt file: sudo vi /boot/config.txt Uncommented this line:

hdmi_safe=1

9. Ran the standard install steps:

sudo apt-get install -y git

git clone http://github.com/alanbjohnston/CubeSatSim.git

cd CubeSatSim

git checkout master

./install

10. Entered callsign, latitude, and longitude and said y to reboot.
