No start without bootable SD card
I got myself a RaspBerry Pi and did one mistake: I just started it to see if it works. I did not have an SD card in it and I expected it to show
No bootable medium found
Or something similar. Beware! The Pi will not even start without a bootable SD card in it. Also an SD card that is not bootable does not help. Do not send the Pi back, create a bootable SD card and boot from it.
Create a bootable SD card
http://www.raspberrypi.org/quick-start-guide is incomplete, it does not tell you how to dump your file to SD card, here is how I tried:
dd if=2012-12-16-wheezy-raspbian.img of=/dev/sdc
This worked, the OS came up.
Password
User is pi, password is raspberry
Network
Playing with it in the default config:
tweedleburg:~ # nmap 192.168.178.0/24 Starting Nmap 6.01 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2013-05-23 17:51 CEST [...] Nmap scan report for 192.168.178.43 Host is up (0.0036s latency). Not shown: 999 closed ports PORT STATE SERVICE 22/tcp open ssh MAC Address: B8:27:EB:06:57:BA (Raspberry Pi Foundation)

Using it as NFS Server I get 8 MB/s when writing on it using the command
dd if=/dev/zero of=datei bs=4096 count=10000
