Last Updated on April 6, 2023 by pg@petergamma.org

  • It is difficult to install Raspberry Pi OS on the Raspberry zero 2, since it has only two usb-c connectors, one for power and the other is an usb-c plug
  • according to this instruction, it is possible to plug in an usb hub and a usb keybard to control the
    Raspberry zero 2 w with an external keyboard:
  • but leepspvideo does not do it like this to install Raspberry Pi OS, he uses an iPAD a remote solution with which we are not familiar with:
  • does he use an iPad to make us buy an iPad?
  • Why does he not use an external keyboard and mouse?
  • we plugged in a powered hub, an external usb keyboard and an usb mouse
  • the Raspberry Pi zero w2 booted up, we have connected the device over HDMI to a monitors
  • the display shows the image of the Raspberry Pi OS and starts up
  • the Raspberry Pi zero w2 has a status light which shows activity, but it can only be seen from one side of the device, since our device is built into a housing, and we have to flip it to see the status light
  • but keyboard and mouse do not work to install the Raspberry Pi OS
  • why is not discussed in the leepspvideo’s instructional video, is this because it lowers the sales rates?
