My suggested list of terminal commands for your brand new PocketCHIP. These do the following things:
- Reset your password.
- Give you
root
user access to update and install software. - Update your PocketCHIP's core operating system.
- Make sure that your locale and time zone data is right.
- Install SSH and shut off WiFi power saving to prevent timeouts.
- Install Pocket Home (Marshmallow edition).
- Install
rsync
for easier file copying. (Optional) - Install
git
to easily grab projects from GitHub. (Optional)
Note: Do not add the $
or #
from each line before the command! $
denotes a command to be run by your default user, #
denotes a command that requires root
privileges.
$ passwd
$ sudo -i
# apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade

I just bought one myself and wanted to ask what other programming alt's have you done? I saw El Kentaro's multi-part piece on the Medium App too so I'm trying to get all input.
