Warning! When you write the Raspberry Pi image to your SD card you will lose all data that was on the card. Check the SD Card list if you are not sure. Make sure you get a reasonable quality card rather than a cheap one.
If you don't have a pre-installed card you will need to prepare your own. Some Raspberry Pi kits will come with a ready-to-go card with the distribution pre-installed, or these can be bought separately. Note that you can have several SD Cards with a separate distribution on each, then power off, swap cards and restart the Raspberry Pi to use that card. Available distributions are shown here you will need the Raspberry Pi bootloader to launch your distribution, so you need one for the Raspberry Pi and cannot download a PC based distribution and use that. You will also need to choose a distribution. If you do have problems booting the Raspberry Pi, see the trouble shooting page first. Make sure that you insert the card before powering on the Raspberry Pi, and that you shutdown the Raspberry Pi before unplugging the card. Many problems with booting the Raspberry Pi are a result of an improperly formatted or corrupted card. The Raspberry Pi will not start without a properly formatted SD Card, containing the bootloader and a suitable operating system.
