- We have generated Armbian builds specifically for the Lollipop's supported boards. You can [download Armbian builds for Lollipops here (link)](https://dl.lollipopcloud.solutions/files/armbian).
- **Note about the Raspberry Pi:** The [Raspberry Pi 3 (link)](https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/raspberrypi/README.md) with the BCM2837 processor, at least 512MB RAM, and Raspbian may work well as a Lollipop; however, we have not tested this configuration at this time.

### WiFi 2.4ghz Access Point
This setup will configure the Lollipop's internal WiFi adapter as an access point. NetworkManager assumes you'll have only *one* Access Point active per device at a time. If you'd prefer your wireless access point use 5ghz, skip this step.
This setup will configure the Lollipop's internal WiFi adapter as an access point. NetworkManager assumes you'll have only *one* Access Point active per device at a time. If you'd prefer your wireless access point use 5ghz AND your hardware is capable of 5ghz, skip this step. *Example: the OrangePi PC Plus must be configured as a 2.4ghz access point, unless you are configuring an upgraded or external adapter capable of 5ghz.*
2.4ghz is a good choice and a default for most commerical access points for compatibility with WiFi clients. This is recommended if you're not sure.

# Getting Started
You will need a single-board computer (SBC) like an [Orange Pi (link)](http://www.orangepi.org/).
For the basic start up and set up of your Orange Pi, you will need either (a) a keyboard and a way to view the display (either an HDMI cable OR a [serial console](https://www.pine64.org/?product=padi-serial-console)), OR (b) an ethernet connection.
For the basic start up and set up of your Orange Pi, you will need one of the following configurations:
- a keyboard and a way to view the display (either an HDMI cable with a monitor OR a [serial console](https://www.pine64.org/?product=padi-serial-console))
- an ethernet connection by connecting your SBC to your home router with an ethernet cord (or "patch cable")
__NOTE:__ If you are going to use your SBC wirelessly as a server and a client (example: your laptop will access the internet via your Lollipop, where your Lollipop is connected to a coffee shop's public wifi), you are going to need TWO wifi adapters. If you're using the OrangePi PC Plus, it has its own onboard wifi, but you will need to add a second wifi adapter that uses a USB port, such as this [OurLink Wifi USB Dongle](https://ourlink.us/collections/some/products/glam-hobby-600mbps-ac600-dual-band-usb-wifi-dongle-wireless-network-adapter-for-laptop-desktop-computer-backward-compatible-with-802-11-a-b-g-n-products-2-4-ghz-150mbps-5ghz-433mbps).
You will also need an SD card formatted with Armbian installed.
## Installing Armbian onto an SD card
## Installing Armbian on an SD card
[Armbian](https://www.armbian.com/) is a Linux operating system based on Debian and Ubuntu, specifically designed for [ARM boards (link)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARM_architecture).
__NOTE:__ Raspberry Pi 3 users will need to use [Raspbian (link)](https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/) instead of Armbian.
