The UmbraXenu server.

This is a guide to setting up a MediaWiki on a Raspberry Pi.

Parts needed

  • Raspberry Pi - Model B.
  • SD Card, at least 4GB.
  • USB drive or stick.
  • Powered USB hub.
  • A router between the Internet and your LAN.

Operating system

Bare-bones, the Pi only has a bootstrap loader that will try to load an OS from the SD Card. In this case, it will be the Raspbian version of the Debian distro of Linux.

Raising up a LAMP

LAMP stands for Linux Apache MySQL PHP (mainly). It's the "solution stack" needed for most web-based applications.

It's a matter of style

Putting the show on the road

Once the MediaWiki is running and configured on you LAN, and has enough content, it's time to make it available.
