Detailed Installation Instructions
Step 1: Prepare your boot device
You'll need:
- A bootable storage device, of 2GB or more
- The latest Amahi rootfs from http://dl.amahi.org/marvell/
- The script to copy the above rootfs into your storage device: http://dl.amahi.org/marvell/create-clean-f12-disk.sh
Connect your boot device (USB hard drive, USB flash drive, or SD card) into a working Linux machine.
If needed, partition your device to create a partition you'll use to boot. No need to format it.
If a swap partition is desired (highly recommended for the Dockstar) leave up to 512MB available, and format as Linux swap. Next, download the script and Image to the disk. Run the script and it will give a warning to edit the script to match your drive designation. This is what your disk is on the current machine (i.e. sdb1,sdc1), care should be taken here to correctly identify the disk or you could wipe the wrong disk. Now run the script and it will automagically prepare your disk.
Step 2: Boot your plug
Boot the device with your newly created disk attached. Give it a few minutes to boot, and it will be ready for the Amahi installation.
Step 3: Install Amahi
