Raspberry Pi Imager easiest

In Raspberry Pi Imager 2.0+, add our content repository — App Options → Content Repository → EDIT → Use custom URL, paste the os_list.json URL below — then pick Forty-Two Watts from the OS list. Imager downloads, writes and SHA-verifies the image, and unlocks the hostname / WiFi / SSH customisation panel a bare image can't.
