Before activating your hardware, ensure that the system is correctly set up according to the Target Setup Guide, up to the section “Activate License”.

  A 16-digit hex value will be displayed near the bottom of the output. Your Raspberry Pi’s serial number is the last eight hex-digits. For example, if you see:

  Serial          : 0000000012345678

  The serial number is 12345678. For more information visit the Raspberry Pi documentation.
