* remove the SD card from your PC, insert it into the pandaboard and hook up a serial cable (or a USB to serial cable).
* start a terminal emulator on your PC (e.gI have used cu as minicom was horrible with the graphics of the installer. minicom); make <br>Make sure you configure it properly (115200 8N1) and use the proper line (in my case /dev/ttyUSB0, but this depends on your actual hardware).With cu and ttyUSB0 the command line reads: {{Code|cu -l /dev/ttyUSB0 -s 115200}}* power the board; your panda will now boot; and start resizing the partition, after that the board will reboot.* you will now get into the ubuntu installation dialog. I've tested with English, but feel free to try other languages.* choose location, timezone etc. Keyboard does only matter if you plan on adding a local keyboard, but most likely you won't.* choose a username and password, make sure not to forget these* for primary interface best use eth0 (using wlan0 should not probably be no problem but will be slower). This was all tested with fixed network.* for hostname just keep localhost; we'll rename later* IMPORTANT: when it comes to selecting what software to install choose both Basic Ubuntu Server and OpenSSH Server. Select no other items.* the packages will now install. This takes some time. A good moment to get some coffee or a beer ;-)
