# Prerequisites
## System Requirements
**Fresh Raspberry Pi OS (Lite/Bookworm recommended)**
The installation script will automatically install the required packages, but if you prefer manual installation:
```bash
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
sudo apt install darkice icecast2 alsa-utils -y
sudo reboot
```
## Hardware Requirements
- Raspberry Pi (any model, including Pi Zero 2W)
- USB audio interface (record player → RCA/3.5mm → USB)
- Reliable power supply (USB audio hates undervoltage - use a quality power adapter)
- Network connection (WiFi or Ethernet)
## Software Requirements
- Raspberry Pi OS (Debian-based)
- Git (usually pre-installed)
- Sudo access
## Notes
- The Pi Zero 2W works great for this setup
- USB audio disconnections are fixed by the wrapper script and USB audio configuration
- A stable power supply is critical - undervoltage causes USB audio issues
