7. Add /usr/sbin to path
   1. sudo vim ~/.bashrc
   2. Add PATH=$PATH:/usr/sbin to the end of the file
   3. Save File :wq!
   4. Run source ~/.bashrc
8. Add keys

9. Resize partition - Source
   1. Run sudo fdisk /dev/sda
      • use p to list the partitions. Make note of the start cylinder of /dev/sda1
      • use d to delete first the swap partition (2) and then the /dev/sda1 partition. This is very scary but is actually harmless as the data is not written to the disk until you write the changes to the disk.
      • use n to create a new primary partition. Make sure its start cylinder is exactly the same as the old /dev/sda1 used to have. For the end cylinder agree with the default choice, which is to make the partition to span the whole disk.
      • review your changes, make a deep breath and use w to write the new partition table to disk.
      • resize2fs /dev/sda1 to resize filesystem
   2. Reboot with sudo reboot.
10. Make usb filesystem by running command mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1 where /dev/sda1 is your new disk.
11. Install raspiblitz via build script
12. Configure signet
13. Reboot with sudo reboot.
14. Login with admin user. Default password: raspiblitz
