# Preparacion Tarjeta SD Una vez que tenemos nuestro equipo lo primero que tenemos que hacer es preparar nuestra tarjeta SD, para esto vamos a utilizar la herramienta oficial Raspberry PI Imager que la vamos de descargar desde la pagina oficial [https://www.raspberrypi.org/software/](https://www.raspberrypi.org/software/) Descargamos Raspberry PI Imager, para la plataforma en la que estemos trabajando [![image-1619195284336.png](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/scaled-1680-/image-1619195284336.png)](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/image-1619195284336.png) Lo descargamos y lo instalamos y abrimos la aplicación [![image-1619195326040.png](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/scaled-1680-/image-1619195326040.png)](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/image-1619195326040.png) Seleccionamos **CHOOSE OS** y luego **Raspberry PI OS (other)** [![image-1619195395987.png](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/scaled-1680-/image-1619195395987.png)](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/image-1619195395987.png) Seleccionamos -> **Raspberry PI OS Lite (32-bit)** [![image-1619195524238.png](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/scaled-1680-/image-1619195524238.png)](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/image-1619195524238.png)

**NOTA: Para que el script funcione se debe utilizar Raspberry Pi OS Lite (32-bit), es un requerimiento fundamental para que todo funcione en forma correcta**

Seleccionamos -> **CHOOSE SD CARD** [![image-1619195920366.png](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/scaled-1680-/image-1619195920366.png)](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/image-1619195920366.png) Seleccionamos -> **Nuestra Tarjeta SD** [![image-1619195975050.png](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/scaled-1680-/image-1619195975050.png)](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/image-1619195975050.png) Seleccionamos -> WRITE [![image-1619196031468.png](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/scaled-1680-/image-1619196031468.png)](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/image-1619196031468.png) Seleccionamos -> **YES** [![image-1619196095732.png](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/scaled-1680-/image-1619196095732.png)](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/image-1619196095732.png)

**NOTA: como nos informa la herramienta la herramienta formatea la tarjeta SD y borra todo el contendio**

Ponemos la contraseña del usuario, en este ejemplo se utiliza la herramienta en MAC [![image-1619196265456.png](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/scaled-1680-/image-1619196265456.png)](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/image-1619196265456.png) Esperamos que la herramienta finalice (esta operación demora unos minutos) [![image-1619196301289.png](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/scaled-1680-/image-1619196301289.png)](https://pandorafms.com/guides/public/uploads/images/gallery/2021-04/image-1619196301289.png)

**Al finalizar sacamos la tarjeta SD y la volvemos a conectar para montarla en nuestro equipo y poder continuar con el siguiente paso**
