update instructions

  
  == The solution ==
  
- There is no officially released version of Debian Edu for Raspberry Pi, but it can be easily installed manually. We need to install Debian on Raspberry first, then transform it to a regular Debian Edu workstation. We will start by installing Raspbian. This is a version of Debian that is specially made for Raspberry. After that we install the debian-edu metapackes using a script to transform the installation into a Debian Edu workstation (which needs a Debian Edu main-server [[http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Wheezy/GettingStarted|to be useful.]].

- 3. Boot up the Raspberry with the SD card. You will get into [[http://elinux.org/RPi_raspi-config |raspi-config.]]. Choose expand_rootfs to expand the root partition to fill the SD card. And then choose configure_keyboard to set the keyboard layout that you are using. It's strongly recommended to change the default password. choose change_pass to change the password.
