Flash the SD card

Flashing the card with your favourite operating system is crucial for the radio to work, as you've probably imagined already. We recommend to install Arch Linux though. Why? Because, it's (1) light weighted, (2) well structured, (3) it has a very resourceful wiki and (4) is simply awesome.
