It's stupid easy to set up. You don't really need to know anything about Linux or Raspbian.
You literally insert the sd card into your Windows computer, download the installer, it puts it on the sd card, put card in Pi, and it's ready. (With a few minor things like setting your wifi info and making a root account name).
Then attach pi to the cr10 via USB. From that point on, you interact with Octoprint remotely from a browser on your laptop, phone, whatever by just going to the IP of the Pi.
