What needs to be done
The actual setup process for a BE-IIS system is intentionally simple.
The goal is not to manually configure kernel drivers, write device tree
overlays, or debug low-level integration issues.
Instead, the system is prepared using standard Raspberry Pi steps,
followed by a structured installer workflow.
Source: This workflow is based on the BE-IIS installer documentation.

Overview
- Prepare a Raspberry Pi OS Lite image\
- Flash the SD card\
- Enable SSH and create a user before first boot\
- Boot the system and connect via SSH\
- Install Git\
- Clone the BE-IIS installer repository\
- Run the installer
Step by step
Prepare Raspberry Pi OS
Start with a minimal Raspberry Pi OS Lite installation.
Flash the SD card
Write the operating system image to the SD card.
Enable access
Before the first boot:
- Enable SSH\
- Create a user
Boot and connect
Start the Raspberry Pi and connect via SSH.
Install Git
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y git
Clone the installer
git clone https://github.com/be-iis/be-iis-installer
cd be-iis-installer
Run the installer
./scripts/install/install-all.sh
Why this is simple
The process follows a clear structure:
- standard Raspberry Pi setup\
- no manual kernel or device tree work\
- automated integration via the installer
This allows users to focus on their application instead of system bring-up.
