### {% linkable_title Hassbian %}
|
||||
The easiest way to install Home Assistant on your Raspberry Pi is by using Hassbian: a Raspberry Pi image with Home Assistant built-in. The image will install the latest version of Home Assistant on initial boot (~5 minutes).
|
||||
|
||||
We finally have a Raspberry Pi image! It's been named Hassbian in honor of Raspbian.
|
||||
This image comes pre-installed with the dependencies, permissions and so on for Home Assistant. Image is based on the same install instructions as the [Manual installation](/getting-started/installation-raspberry-pi/).
|
||||
It's based on Raspbian Lite and generated with a fork of the same [script](https://github.com/home-assistant/pi-gen) that builds the [official Raspbian images](raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/). Please note that this project has no association with the Raspberry Pi foundation or their projects.
|
||||
1. [Download the latest image][image-download]
|
||||
2. Flash the image to an SD card:
|
||||
- [Windows][flash-windows]
|
||||
- [Linux][flash-linux]
|
||||
- [Mac][flash-macos]
|
||||
3. Ensure your Raspberry Pi has access to the internet.
|
||||
4. Insert SD card to Raspberry Pi and turn it on. Initial installation of Home Assistant will take 5 minutes.
|
||||
|
||||
On first boot the latest release of Home Assistant will be installed in a [Virtual Environment](getting-started/installation-virtualenv) at `/srv/homeassistant` and started as a service run by the user `homeassistant`. Since this is done automatically it's required that the Raspberry Pi is connected to the internet with a ethernet cable. Installation takes about 5 minutes on first boot and after that you can connect to your Raspberry Pi on `ipaddress:8123`.
|
||||
Home Assistant will now be available by navigating with a browser to `http://ip-address-of-pi:8123`. The default username is `pi` and password is `raspberry` (please change this by running `passwd`)
|
||||
|
||||
Pre-installed on this image is the MQTT broker [Mosquitto](https://mosquitto.org/), Bluetooth support for none Bluetooth LE and settings for the `homeassistant` user to use the GPIO pins of the Raspberry Pi. Mosquitto is not activated by default.
|
||||
The following extras are included on the image:
|
||||
|
||||
As it is today there is no pre-compiled Z-Wave support but it can be installed by following the [Getting started instructions for Z-Wave](/getting-started/z-wave/).
|
||||
- GPIO pins are ready to use.
|
||||
- Mosquitto MQTT broker is installed (not activated by default).
|
||||
- Bluetooth is ready to use (supported models only, no Bluetooth LE).
|
||||
|
||||
For Raspberry Pi hardware specific components have a look at our [install guide for the Raspberry Pi](/getting-started/installation-raspberry-pi/#raspberry-pi-hardware-specific-components). Default password for the `pi` user is `raspberry` and is highly recommended to be changed.
|
||||
Some extra tips:
|
||||
|
||||
### {% linkable_title Installation %}
|
||||
- Check out the list of [Raspberry Pi hardware specific components][pi-components].
|
||||
- Z-Wave support can be installed by following the [Getting started instructions for Z-Wave](/getting-started/z-wave/).
|
||||
|
||||
The image can be found as a [release](https://github.com/home-assistant/pi-gen/releases) in the [pi-gen repository](https://github.com/home-assistant/pi-gen/).
|
||||
### {% linkable_title Technical Details %}
|
||||
|
||||
Installation instructions are the same as for Raspbian and it's recommended to follow [these](https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/installation/installing-images/README.md).
|
||||
- Home Assistant is installed in a virtual Python environment at `src/homeassistant`
|
||||
- Home Assistant will be started as a service run by the user `homeassistant`
