There are many options: 1. **Copy the file to the SD card** you're using to boot the Pi. When inserted into a Mac or Windows PC, typically only the `/boot` partition mounts as a drive your OS can see. (There's a much larger partition on the SD card, but most PCs cannot see it.) There should be enough free space left in this small partition to copy the file over. When you boot the Pi up with that SD card, you will find the tarball or Zip file in `/boot`. 2. **Pull the file down to the Pi** over the web, directly to the Pi: $ wget -O pidp8i.tar.gz https://goo.gl/JowPoC That will get you a file called `pidp8i.tar.gz` in the current working directory containing the latest *release* version.
