raspi-config

A year ago or so, when I upgraded from 'stretch' to 'jessie' on my 
raspi I did it the hard way, I mean, instead of following the 
instructions on a website, I managed to image the system, resize th
partition and create my home directory in my main desktop. I also 
edited /etc/hostname and even /etc/network/interfaces and 
/etc/timezone by hand. Then I plugged in the sd card in my raspi an
everything worked out of the box as expected.

Well, there is something wrong with my raspi after using it 24/7 fo
almost four years. I constantly lose connection to the system. I ha
tried to use a brand new sd card to no avail. I think I need a new 
raspi.

Anyway, what I wanted to say is that this time I used a tool that 
comes with raspbian which is called *raspi-config* it certainly com
in handy when it comes to do all the operations I mentioned above 
including the configuration of the locales.

I must seriously remember to use this handy tool next time. 

Now it is time to order a raspi 3. See you...
