    Installing and Configuring Raspbian

    • Follow the software configuration steps shown in this video and burn the image file to an SD card for each computer in your cluster.
    • For each Raspberry Pi in your cluster, insert an imaged SD card, connect them all to the same router or switch, and then connect a power source to each one.

    Installing and Configuring Raspbian

    • Download the Raspbian Image from here.
    • Burn the Raspbian Image to your SD Card
    • Once the image is burned to your SD Card, but it into the Raspberry Pi and boot it up with a Keyboard, Mouse, Monitor and Internet attached.
    • Upon first boot, you should see the Rasbperry Pi Configuration screen (otherwise type “sudo raspbi-config“. Here’s the options we’ll need to configure
        • Expand the File System
        • If needed, set the Internationalization options to match your countries keyboard layout.
        • Overlcock the Pi to 800 Mhz
        • Advanced Options
          • Set the Hostname to Pi01
          • Split the memory to 16mb for graphics
          • Enable SSH
        • Finish out of the configuration, but don’t reboot yet
        • To enable auto-login, at the terminal command type “sudo nano /etc/inittab
          • Comment out this line: #1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty --noclear 38400 tty1
          • And add this line right beneath it: 1:2345:respawn:/bin/login -f pi tty1 </dev/tty1 >/dev/tty1 2>&1
        • Now you can reboot your Pi and it should auto-login

    Installing MPICH

    • MPICH is software that allows for multi-processing communication between computers.
    • To install it on your Raspberry Pi, first make sure you have a valid Internet connection going to the Pi. Then follow these Terminal Commands
      • sudo apt-get update
      • mkdir mpich2
      • cd ~/mpich2
      • wget http://www.mpich.org/static/downloads/3.1/mpich-3.1.tar.gz
      • tar xfz mpich-3.1.tar.gz
      • sudo mkdir /home/rpimpi/
      • sudo mkdir /home/rpimpi/mpi-install
      • mkdir /home/pi/mpi-build
      • cd /home/pi/mpi-build
      • sudo apt-get install gfortran
      • sudo /home/pi/mpich2/mpich-3.1/configure -prefix=/home/rpimpi/mpi-install
      • sudo make
      • sudo make install
      • nano .bashrc
        • PATH=$PATH:/home/rpimpi/mpi-install/bin
      • sudo reboot
      • mpiexec -n 1 hostname
    • These commands will download and install MPICH, as well as add it as a path to your BASHRC boot file. The last command runs a test to see if it works. If the last command returns “Pi01”, then you did everything successfully.

    Installing MPI4PY

    • As it is, MPICH can run C and Fortran programs. But since the Raspberry Pi has the Python coding environment pre-installed, it would be easiest to install a Python to MPI interpreter. Here’s the commands to do that:
