This file describes how you would install Debian's
|
||
|
|
'Network Installer' or netinstall on an SD Card. This
|
||
|
|
SD card would then be used in the Beagleboard to install
|
||
|
|
Debian Squeeze.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you haven't yet downlaoded the git repo which holds the
|
||
|
|
necessary software, you can do that this way;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ git clone git://github.com/RobertCNelson/netinstall-omap.git
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Then change to the directory you have just cloned;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ cd netinstall-omap
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The following command is an example of what you have to do to
|
||
|
|
install the correct distro onto the SD card;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
./mk_mmc.sh --mmc /dev/sdX --uboot <dev board> --distro <distro> --firmware
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You'll need to customize this of course based on your particular needs.
|
||
|
|
For example, your SD card might be on a different partition, you can use
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ ls -l /dev/disk/by-path/
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
to determine where exactly your SD card is located. Under Debian systems it
|
||
|
|
can often be here;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
/dev/sdb
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In this case you'd run the mk_mmc.sh shell script with this location
|
||
|
|
for the --mmc flag, like this;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ ./mk_mmc.sh --mmc /dev/sdb/
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You'll need to also provide the correct argument to the --uboot and the
|
||
|
|
--distro arguments. In my case, I did this;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ sudo ./mk_mmc.sh --mmc /dev/sdb/ --uboot beagle --distro squeeze
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You'll need to be root because the script is going to call fdisk which
|
||
|
|
usually lives under /sbin/
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
