With the hardware built the next step is getting the Raspberry Pi up and running and installing LIRC. Alexba.in has a comprehensive post for both of these things: RaspberryPi Quickstart and Setting Up LIRC on the RaspberryPi.
I discovered and modified a few things along the way, so here’s what I did.
- Download the latest Raspbian Image and follow their Installation Guide.
- Network the Pi over wired Ethernet using RJ45 connector.
- Connect to the Pi over SSH with PuTTy.
Since I’d like to connect over WiFi I’ve added a Belkin USB F7D2101. For future development, I also added a ORICO BTA-402 USB Bluetooth 4.0 Micro Adapter Dongle for controlling a Play Station 3 using GIMX.
