In this interface we can configure multiple settings befor the first boot:
For me I have changed
Hostname
SSH
Username
Password
Local timezone
Keyboard layout
WiFi has been disabled
After saving the settings you can press the wirte (schreiben) button to setup your SD Card.
Now we have to place the SD Card in our Raspberry Pi and start it, you need to findout the IP Adress from your router
The Username and Password and the SSH is configured so you will get the connection to your Raspberry Pi after some minutes via ssh username@ip
The first thing we should do is an update of the OS Software via
# This command will update your repo files
apt update
# This command will request all updates for all packages you have installed (reboot maybe requried)
apt upgrade
