| | | | |
| − | Here are the steps to make the plug boot from USB
| + | See [[Amahi_Plug_Edition | Amahi_Plug_Edition]] for installation and supported devices. |
| − | * General [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/SheevaplugUSB directions]
| |
| − | * get the rootfs-f12.tar.bz2 from
| |
| − | http://ftp.linux.org.uk/pub/linux/arm/fedora/rootfs/-->
| |
| − | * Connect the JTAG module and connect the USB side to a terminal emulator
| |
| − | * Connect the ethernet cable to your network
| |
| − | * Putty for windows (Serial)
| |
| − | * gtkterm for linux (use 2 stop bits!)
| |
| − | * Reset the device from the JTAG module
| |
| − | * At the terminal, press enter a couple of seconds after boot to prevent it booting to the flash
| |
| − | * There are some commands to make it permanently boot off USB ('''NOTE:''' this step only has to be done once):
| |
| | | | |
| − | setenv mainlineLinux yes
| |
| − | setenv arcNumber 2097
| |
| − | setenv bootargs_root 'root=/dev/sda1 rootdelay=15'
| |
| − | setenv bootcmd_usb 'usb start; ext2load usb 0:1 0x6400000 /boot/uImage-2.6.30-sheevaplug'
| |
| − | setenv bootcmd 'setenv bootargs $(console) $(bootargs_root); run bootcmd_usb; bootm 0x6400000'
| |
| − | saveenv
| |
| − | reset
| |
| | | | |
| − | * In order to install the rootfs onto a flash or disk, mount the flash drive on a linux system and execute the create-clean-f12-disk.sh script. It may take a while, but this must be done before booting up the plug and installing Amahi.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''NOTE:''' This script is very dangerous (it can destroy the machine it is run on if not used properly). You will need to change the partition destination.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Insert USB Flash Drive into the plug.
| |
| − | * Once this is complete, the JTAG module can be disconnected. There will be no need for serial connection any longer. Once the USB Flash Drive is connected and the plug booted, you will be able to connect via SSH.

| |
| − | After booting from it,
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Configure a profile for the system in http://www.amahi.org. Pay attention to the IP of the HDA you configure. Let's call it PLUG_FIXED_IP.
| |
| − | * Ensure you have inserted the USB Flash Drive and boot the system
| |
| − | * Until we optimize things, it will take 4 or 5 minutes to boot the first time.
| |
| − | * The first time it boots, it will try to use DHCP. In my case, I configured a static IP so that when it boots with DHCP I know what IP it has. This may be different than the static you configured above.
| |
| − | * Access the installer via http://IP_OR_NAME_OF_THE_PLUG_IN_DHCP:2000/
| |
| − | * Wait patiently if it does not respond. This does require internet connectivity
| |
| − | * The installer takes about 1 minute to install with that :)
| |
| − | * Input the install code for that system
| |
| − | * When asked to, click the big red button to reboot
| |
| − | * The reboot will take a minute or two
| |
| − | * Access it with the configured IP: http://IP_OR_NAME_OF_THE_PLUG/
| |
| − | * First login: admin/amahi. I will ask you to reset the password the first time
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''NOTE:''' With about 1/8th of the rpms on a typical x86 install, you will experience a lot of failures with apps (VPN does not work, apps will be missing deps, etc. etc.).
