This is not something invented by moOde.
Yes, the initial procedure is a bit exacting but it is forced on us by security measures which were recently imposed by the Raspberry Pi folks. We're just suggesting using the Imager tool they provide users to ease the task.
It's possible to do the imaging without the Raspberry Pi Imager but it's more complicated. I authored a thread in the FAQ and Guides section on this.
You don't need SSH active to set up moOde initially but you'll need it sooner or later. Again, the Imager makes enabling SSH easier.
Anyone using a Raspberry Pi should be familiar with the Rasberry Pi documentation. Since the use of the Imager is well covered in it (see Getting Started) it seems pointless to repeat it in detail in the moOde documentation, especially since it changes from time to time.
Hope you decide to give moOde another go. With some 2200 users on this site we seem to be doing all right. Tim has given us a gem.
