The simplest option is to download the zip archive of the les. Make sure to pay attention to where you
save the archive, so that you can nd it again quickly.
Format the SD card
Anything that’s stored on the SD card will be overwritten during formatting. So if the SD card on which you
want to install Raspbian currently has any les on it, e.g. from an older version of Raspbian, you may wish
to back these les up rst to not lose them permanently.
Visit the SD Association’s website and download SD Formatter (https://www.sdcard.org/download
s/formatter_4/index.html) for Windows or Mac.
Follow the instructions to install the software.
Insert your SD card into the computer or laptop’s SD card slot.
In SD Formatter, select your SD card, and the format the card.
