Chuck the sdcard into the rpi, connect it to power, and pray it starts up!

Check your local router administrator page to find out the IP address or try to ssh directly using ssh <yourUser>@<hostname>.local

Go to Peripherals / Interfaces and select I2C and One-Wire protocols. Enable, save, finish, reboot, reconnect.

Congratulations, you're now ready to start hacking.
