Select the Ubuntu MATE Image we just downloaded.
Click on “Select Drive” to select the Drive you want your image to be copied to.
Click on “Flash” and wait for it to copy the image to your SD Card.
After it is done, it’ll automatically unmount the SD Card so you can take it from your Computer to continue the process on your Raspberry Pi.
Wait for Ubuntu MATE to boot, it will automatically rezise the partition so it uses the whole MicroSD Card.
You’ll be prompted with the “System Configuration” screen.
Pick your language and then hit “Continue”
Pick the closest city to yours in the map and hit “Continue”
Your keyboard settings will be auto-detected, after they are, click on “Continue”

Once the system reboots, you’re ready to use Ubuntu MATE.
Congratulations, you’ve just installed Ubuntu MATE into your Raspberry Pi and that’s it for this tutorial.
