With new versions of the Raspberry Pi 4’s bootloader, you can now install operating systems over a network connection.
This new functionality means you no longer need a separate computer to install an OS to your Pi’s SD card or USB. Instead, the device itself will now handle the whole process.
You will need an active ethernet connection to utilize this functionality. Unfortunately, Wi-Fi is not supported by the Raspberry Pi’s network install.
Additionally, you will need a blank SD Card for the network install functionality to work. If the Raspberry Pi detects a bootable USB or SD Card, it will go straight into them.
Please note that this functionality is only supported on the Raspberry Pi 4 and newer. These supported devices include the Raspberry Pi 400.
