|}
Notes:
* It is trivial to change from LXDE to [[Xfce]] (or any other desktop environment), adding a new user interface atop the minimal install is more advanced as manual setup of USB-Networking or wifi is needed to do so.
* All images have automount ( for USB-Sticks, external Hard-Drives etc. ) and ALSA sound support

==== '''Verify''' that your download is OK ====
* After you download the version you picked, verify its checksum to make sure the integrity of the downloaded file matches (in being an exact copy the one on the server)

#open up a terminal
# "'''sha256sum ~/downloads/pandian/<image.7Z>'''" (input where you have the file and the one you chose to download)
# make sure it matches the given md5sum, if not, try to download another copy. This step isnt mandatory, but its there to make sure everything is fine before we proceed.

==== '''Unzip''' the downloaded image ====
*Unzipping 7z archives
# Open up a terminal (or do it your way)
# Enter"'''7zr e <image.7z>'''"
# You now have an unzipped image

==== (Optional) '''Preparation''', find out where to install ====

This step helps you find out where the SD card is mounted. 

If you have an build in SD-Card-Reader this is normally /dev/mmcblk0p1 ( in Debian )
If you have an USB-Card-Reader this is something like /dev/sdc ( in Debian )
* Open an Terminal and input "'''lsblk'''"
* You will get a list with the actual Block-Devices
* The SD-Card should be of type 'disk'

You can also try gparted to see which devices you have and identify the SD-card from there

==== '''Install''' the image to the SD-Card ====
{{warning
| Warning, this will destroy everything on the device ! So please be very sure which device is you SD-Card !
}}
# Here it will be /dev/sd'''x'''

(note that the x after the sd is the drive letter, it could be ''sd'''b''''' sd'''c''''' or ''sd'''d''''' and so on, lets say its sd'''c'''. Which means c is the drive letter for the SD-card and that sd- a and -b are in use for other things. 
 
When writing to the device, make sure not to include the following number, which is the partition ''sdc'''1''''' ''sdc'''2''''' etc. since we are using the base card here) 
 
This means considerations for partitions and filesystem are taken care of, so no need to worry about that. Do ''not'' pick the wrong drive however, since dd will happily write the image to somewhere it isn't supposed to if you just give it root privileges and hit enter.) 
 
#Copy image to SD-Card with "'''dd if=<image.img> of=/dev/sdx'''"

You now have Pandian installed on your SD card and its ready to go. :) However after copying the image to the SD-Card resizing the partitionspartitions is needed to fully utilize the space, since by default the install is limited to 2GB. (If your card is bigger Pandian is still limited to those 2GB)

====(Optional) '''Resize''' SD-Card ====

* This can be done with gparted on linux|gnu
* start gparted

[[File:Gparted resize 001.png|800px|thumbnail|none|The actual partitions of the SD-CARD. Please select the correct device at the top right corner.]]
[[File:Gparted resize 002.png|800px|thumbnail|none|Rightclick to the second partition and select Resize/Move]]
[[File:Gparted resize 003.png|400px|thumbnail|none|You see the actual Size of this partition]]
[[File:Gparted resize 004.png|400px|thumbnail|none|Move the slider to the right, or set "Free space following" to 0]]
[[File:Gparted resize 005.png|800px|thumbnail|none|After you press the "Resize/Move" button, you get the preview of the new partition structure]]
[[File:Gparted resize 006.png|800px|thumbnail|none|When you press "Apply all operations", youve got a warning that you can loss your Data. THIS IS THE LAST CHANGE TO CHECK IF YOU SELECTED THE CORRECT DEVICE.

 Press Apply if everything is correct.]]

* After everything is fine, you have a fresh install of Pandian on you SD-Card
 

=== '''Startup''' wizard ===
* Upon first boot of Pandian, there is a first-start-wizard which guides you through some basic settings.
These are: Locale, timezone, time and date, password for admin and user setup and finally calibration of the touchscreen.
The script is located in /usr/sbin/pdSetup should you need to run it again.

==== Navigation ====
* Inside a dialog you can navigate with the cross/dpad
* Hit space to select a checkbox
* Moving between <Ok> and <Cancel> can be down with the use of TAB ( Tap Fn then tap Space )
* Acknowledge with Enter

*All done, enjoy :)

[[File:PandianDesktop.png|frameless]]

=== '''Network''' connection instructions:===

====normal ====
* Use network-manager

====minimal====
* Use ceni network manager

===(Optional) '''Update''' of Pandian system ===
* After you setup your Pandora, it is useful to update your system. It is a rolling release, which means since the image was made, the system is forever updated with new packages.
* open a terminal
* get root ( command is: "su" )
* enter "apt-get update" to download package information from the repositories
* enter "apt-get upgrade" to update all packages that are out of date
(pandian packages are also updated this way :)
* Note: to update only the pandian-packages enter "apt-get upgrade pandian*"

===== Upgrade from "minimal" to "normal" =====
It is possible to upgrade from the "minimal"-image to the "normal"-image.
This can simlpy be done by installing the pandian-lxde debian package
* get an connection to the internet(tm) with ceni
* open an terminal
* get root ( with command: "su" )
* update package list with: "apt-get update"
* install pandian-lxde with "apt-get install pandian-lxde"
* after everything is finished login with the user you setup before
* open an terminal
* get root ( with command: "su" )
* load keymap with "xmodmap /etc/skel/.pndXmodmap"
* the easiest way is to activate the first-start-wizard with "insserv firstuse"
* reboot and go through the wizard

===(Optional) '''Information''' ===

=== Additional Users/Groups ===
There are additional Users/Groups added to the standard debian-users
==== Groups ====
* admin
:This superuser privilege is used by sudo for admin task like shutdown etc.
* mpd
:This user/group has access to mpd-related files ( socket, pid-files )

==== Power-Modes ====
===== LID-Close =====
* If the lid is closed only the screen will be disabled
===== Low-Power-Mode / Shutdown =====
[[File:Lead Photo For Power modes0-2920264867079787.jpg|thumbnail|right|Switch]]
* Switch to left: Pandora will go to low power mode ( reduce CPU, Disable LID, Pause processes )
* Switch to right: Shutdown the pandora

==== pdcmd ====
* This script handles all system-related stuff, like lid, low-power, usb or wifi.
* This should run as root
 
Usage:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Command !! What's done
|-
| /usr/sbin/pdcmd LCDBright + || Increase the light of the lid
|-
| /usr/sbin/pdcmd LCDBright - || Decrease the light of the lid

|}

==== Several tweaks ====
===== Fixing broken keyboard layout =====
If your Pandian has a German keyboard layout, you might have some trouble because it does absolutely not fit US layout on the Pandora.
There is a work around this isse.

*Make sure, the file .pndXmodmap is read in on startup. Open the file ''.xsessionrc'' in your ''home'' directory and, if not existent, add following lines at the bottom of the file
setxkbmap en_US
xmodmap /home/yourUsername/.pndXmodmap
*There must be the absolute path (no "~/").

===== Making the Pandora Button work like the Windows key =====
Many users complained, their Pandora Button has no function in Pandian. This can be changed by mapping the button as ''"mod4"''.

*Insert in the last line of the .pndXmodmap from your ''home'' directory:
add mod4 = XF86MenuKB

===== Openbox =====
Pandian comes with an unconfigured Openbox as a possible session. Here are some config templates.

====== Use the Pandora key to start the menu ======
*If not existent,
cp /etc/xdg/openbox/rc.xml /home/yourUserName/.config/openbox/
* Open the rc.xml with a text editor and search for the section <keyboard>.
* Insert the new keybind:
<keybind key="XF86MenuKB">
<action name="ShowMenu">
<menu>root-menu</menu>
</action>
</keybind>

===== Intuitive Openbox configuration template =====
Prerequisites:
*mapped 'Pandora key' as 'Windows key'(see above)
*optional: use tint2 as panel

Features:
*Changing window by '''[Ctrl] + [up]/[down]'''
*Changing workspace by '''[Ctrl] + [left]/[right]'''
*Closing window by '''[Ctrl] + [Q]'''
*Screenshot (window): '''[Ctrl] + [Shift] + [Alt] + [F11]'''
*Screenshot (whole desktop): '''[Ctrl] + [Shift] + [Alt] + [F12]'''
*and some more

== Mounting internal NAND to /mnt ==

Pandora internal NAND exposes a raw flash interfaces. For such devices, the
Linux kernel exposes a special MTD abstraction and "mtd aware" filesystems may
give a better performance. Pandora uses UBIFS, which needs UBI volume
management to work.

# Install mtd-utils
# Run the following commands

<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
# Attach mtd device 4 to UBI volume management 0
ubiattach -m 4 -d 0
# Mount first partition of the UBI group 0 to /mnt
mount -t ubifs /dev/ubi0_0 /mnt
# Attach mtd device 3 to UBI volume management 1
ubiattach -m 3 -d 1
# Mount first partition of the UBI group 1 to /mnt
mount -t ubifs /dev/ubi1_0 /mnt/boot
</syntaxhighlight>

===== Network Fix for pandian-minimal =====
If you download the '''pandian-mark2-minimal-hf_2014-01-02''' image there is a lack of tools for setup wifi networking. 
'''Note: For the actual download of pandian-minimal, wifi-network-tools are included'''
* Therefore download the fix and place it on the SD-Card where pandian is installed. (you need to have local superuser privileges on your own system as the SD contents aren't owned by your user)
* Boot pandian-minimal
* login with user: "root"
* switch to root-directory: "cd /"
* untar the network-fix: "tar -xf /path-where-file-is-located/pandian-mark2-minimal-networking_2014-01-03.tar.gz"
* setup the fix with command "pdMinimalNetwork"

* after the script is finished, run "ceni" and setup your wifi-connection

Reicast Compatibility List

2014-02-12T23:18:53Z

N3Cr0: /* The Compatibility List */

Reicast is a SEGA Dreamcast Emulator ported on Pandora by PtitSeb. Other versions exist [http://reicast.com/ (Linux|GNU, Android, Windows, Mac..)]

Current version available is VERY alpha. You can download it [http://boards.openpandora.org/index.php?app=core&module=attach&section=attach&attach_id=8058 here]. (will probably be updated often).

==Adding to the Compatibility List==
Choose a playability color that reflects a game's best playability state. Also include the clockspeed at which you ran it, for whichever Pandora version you tested. Please also indicate in the name of the Game whether the version is US/EU/JP, since compatibility may differ depending on regions. You may also add specific conditions you specified in the settings if they differ from the defaults. As for the SGX driver, please write "default" if you did not change your driver vs what was in the firmware.

Don't post a redundant entry unless you are using a different Pandora model and the playability differs from an existing entry. If a game's playability gets worse (new bugs, new crashes) in a new Reicast version, update the entry and add that to notes.

|Games with an '''orange''' background have playability issues and cannot be played from start to finish. This may include missing functionality (wifi) or game crashes. Add problems to notes.
|- style="background: #F78181"
|Unplayable
|Games with a '''red''' background are unplayable. They either don't run at all, or don't get past the intro. Add any other oddities to notes.
|-
|N/A
|Games with a '''white''' background have not been fully tested. If you see one on this list, try it out and report back!

Reicast Compatibility List

2014-02-12T23:18:11Z

N3Cr0: /* The Compatibility List */

Reicast is a SEGA Dreamcast Emulator ported on Pandora by PtitSeb. Other versions exist [http://reicast.com/ (Linux|GNU, Android, Windows, Mac..)]

Current version available is VERY alpha. You can download it [http://boards.openpandora.org/index.php?app=core&module=attach&section=attach&attach_id=8058 here]. (will probably be updated often).

==Adding to the Compatibility List==
Choose a playability color that reflects a game's best playability state. Also include the clockspeed at which you ran it, for whichever Pandora version you tested. Please also indicate in the name of the Game whether the version is US/EU/JP, since compatibility may differ depending on regions. You may also add specific conditions you specified in the settings if they differ from the defaults. As for the SGX driver, please write "default" if you did not change your driver vs what was in the firmware.

Don't post a redundant entry unless you are using a different Pandora model and the playability differs from an existing entry. If a game's playability gets worse (new bugs, new crashes) in a new Reicast version, update the entry and add that to notes.

{|class="wikitable" border="1" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0" style="font-size: 90%; border:1px solid gray; border-collapse: collapse; text-align: left;"
|- style="background: #ececec; text-align: center;"
!Playability
!Description
|- style="background: #90FF90"
|Fullspeed
|Games with a '''green''' background run at fullspeed and are fully playable from start to finish. If frameskip is required, add to notes.
|- style="background: #F3F781"
|Playable
|Games with a '''yellow''' background run slower than fullspeed, but are otherwise fully playable. Add problems/slowdowns to notes.
|- style="background: #F7BE81"
|Incomplete
|Games with an '''orange''' background have playability issues and cannot be played from start to finish. This may include missing functionality (wifi) or game crashes. Add problems to notes.
|- style="background: #F78181"
|Unplayable
|Games with a '''red''' background are unplayable. They either don't run at all, or don't get past the intro. Add any other oddities to notes.
|-
|N/A
|Games with a '''white''' background have not been fully tested. If you see one on this list, try it out and report back!
|}
If you are inclined, post your forum username at the end of your notes so you can be contacted by PtitSeb about further debugging your problems.

Pandian

2014-02-12T16:52:07Z

N3Cr0: Added Openbox config.

[[File:Post-3032-0-90501200-1380479048.png|thumbnail|Logo]]

'''Pandian is an debian-based armhf desktop and CLI distro for your Pandora.'''
Ideas, Bugs, or feature-requests? Report to:
http://www.evilbrain.de/projects/pandian/issues

=== Main Features ===
* The debian way.
* Access to all packages from Debian software repositories.
* Pandian hosts its own Debian repo http://pandian.openpandora.org with up to date scripts, all settings and extra programs.
* armhf-build, which means '''f'''loat operations are relegated to special '''h'''ardware rather than taxing the main cpu with them (as with softfloat)

== '''Pandian''' - '''MARK 2''' The newest release ==
Second version of Pandian 
'''Full Debian GNU/Linux based on sid branch with LXDE desktop environment (normal) or CLI (minimal-) build.''' 
'''hardfloat armv7l''' yule release '''Date: 29.12.2013'''
[http://boards.openpandora.org/topic/15302-pandian-mark2/ forum link]

=== '''Installation''' requirements===
* '''Pandora''' ;) All versions fine?
* '''SD card''' minimum 2GB ( was tested with 4GB )
* '''PC''' Linux|GNU, BSD, Mac, or Windows for putting the install on the aforementioned SD-card.

==== '''Download''' a version of Pandian ====
There are two different versions of the "MARK2" release:

Notes:
* It is trivial to change from LXDE to [[Xfce]] (or any other desktop environment), adding a new user interface atop the minimal install is more advanced as manual setup of USB-Networking or wifi is needed to do so.
* All images have automount ( for USB-Sticks, external Hard-Drives etc. ) and ALSA sound support

==== '''Verify''' that your download is OK ====
* After you download the version you picked, verify its checksum to make sure the integrity of the downloaded file matches (in being an exact copy the one on the server)

#open up a terminal
# "'''sha256sum ~/downloads/pandian/<image.7Z>'''" (input where you have the file and the one you chose to download)
# make sure it matches the given md5sum, if not, try to download another copy. This step isnt mandatory, but its there to make sure everything is fine before we proceed.

==== '''Unzip''' the downloaded image ====
*Unzipping 7z archives
# Open up a terminal (or do it your way)
# Enter"'''7zr e <image.7z>'''"
# You now have an unzipped image

==== (Optional) '''Preparation''', find out where to install ====

This step helps you find out where the SD card is mounted. 

If you have an build in SD-Card-Reader this is normally /dev/mmcblk0p1 ( in Debian )
If you have an USB-Card-Reader this is something like /dev/sdc ( in Debian )
* Open an Terminal and input "'''lsblk'''"
* You will get a list with the actual Block-Devices
* The SD-Card should be of type 'disk'

You can also try gparted to see which devices you have and identify the SD-card from there

==== '''Install''' the image to the SD-Card ====
{{warning
| Warning, this will destroy everything on the device ! So please be very sure which device is you SD-Card !
}}
# Here it will be /dev/sd'''x'''

(note that the x after the sd is the drive letter, it could be ''sd'''b''''' sd'''c''''' or ''sd'''d''''' and so on, lets say its sd'''c'''. Which means c is the drive letter for the SD-card and that sd- a and -b are in use for other things. 
 
When writing to the device, make sure not to include the following number, which is the partition ''sdc'''1''''' ''sdc'''2''''' etc. since we are using the base card here) 
 
This means considerations for partitions and filesystem are taken care of, so no need to worry about that. Do ''not'' pick the wrong drive however, since dd will happily write the image to somewhere it isn't supposed to if you just give it root privileges and hit enter.) 
 
#Copy image to SD-Card with "'''dd if=<image.img> of=/dev/sdx'''"

You now have Pandian installed on your SD card and its ready to go. :) However after copying the image to the SD-Card resizing the partitionspartitions is needed to fully utilize the space, since by default the install is limited to 2GB. (If your card is bigger Pandian is still limited to those 2GB)

====(Optional) '''Resize''' SD-Card ====

* This can be done with gparted on linux|gnu
* start gparted

[[File:Gparted resize 001.png|800px|thumbnail|none|The actual partitions of the SD-CARD. Please select the correct device at the top right corner.]]
[[File:Gparted resize 002.png|800px|thumbnail|none|Rightclick to the second partition and select Resize/Move]]
[[File:Gparted resize 003.png|400px|thumbnail|none|You see the actual Size of this partition]]

 Press Apply if everything is correct.]]

* After everything is fine, you have a fresh install of Pandian on you SD-Card
 

=== '''Startup''' wizard ===
* Upon first boot of Pandian, there is a first-start-wizard which guides you through some basic settings.
These are: Locale, timezone, time and date, password for admin and user setup and finally calibration of the touchscreen.
The script is located in /usr/sbin/pdSetup should you need to run it again.

==== Navigation ====
* Inside a dialog you can navigate with the cross/dpad
* Hit space to select a checkbox
* Moving between <Ok> and <Cancel> can be down with the use of TAB ( Tap Fn then tap Space )
* Acknowledge with Enter

*All done, enjoy :)

[[File:PandianDesktop.png|frameless]]

=== '''Network''' connection instructions:===

====normal ====
* Use network-manager

====minimal====
* Use ceni network manager

===(Optional) '''Update''' of Pandian system ===
* After you setup your Pandora, it is useful to update your system. It is a rolling release, which means since the image was made, the system is forever updated with new packages.
* open a terminal
* get root ( command is: "su" )
* enter "apt-get update" to download package information from the repositories
* enter "apt-get upgrade" to update all packages that are out of date
(pandian packages are also updated this way :)
* Note: to update only the pandian-packages enter "apt-get upgrade pandian*"

===== Upgrade from "minimal" to "normal" =====
It is possible to upgrade from the "minimal"-image to the "normal"-image.
This can simlpy be done by installing the pandian-lxde debian package
* get an connection to the internet(tm) with ceni
* open an terminal
* get root ( with command: "su" )
* update package list with: "apt-get update"
* install pandian-lxde with "apt-get install pandian-lxde"
* after everything is finished login with the user you setup before
* open an terminal
* get root ( with command: "su" )
* load keymap with "xmodmap /etc/skel/.pndXmodmap"
* the easiest way is to activate the first-start-wizard with "insserv firstuse"
* reboot and go through the wizard

===(Optional) '''Information''' ===

=== Additional Users/Groups ===
There are additional Users/Groups added to the standard debian-users
==== Groups ====
* admin
:This superuser privilege is used by sudo for admin task like shutdown etc.
* mpd
:This user/group has access to mpd-related files ( socket, pid-files )

==== Power-Modes ====
===== LID-Close =====
* If the lid is closed only the screen will be disabled
===== Low-Power-Mode / Shutdown =====
[[File:Lead Photo For Power modes0-2920264867079787.jpg|thumbnail|right|Switch]]
* Switch to left: Pandora will go to low power mode ( reduce CPU, Disable LID, Pause processes )
* Switch to right: Shutdown the pandora

==== pdcmd ====
* This script handles all system-related stuff, like lid, low-power, usb or wifi.
* This should run as root

==== Several tweaks ====
===== Making the Pandora Button work like the Windows key =====
Many users complained, their Pandora Button has no function in Pandian. This can be changed by mapping the button as ''"mod4"''.
*Make sure, the file .pndXmodmap is read in on startup. Open the file ''.xsessionrc'' in your ''home'' directory and, if not existent, add following to the last line:
xmodmap /home/yourUsername/.pndXmodmap
*There must be the absolute path (no "~/").
*Insert in the last line of the .pndXmodmap from your ''home'' directory:
add mod4 = XF86MenuKB

===== Openbox =====
Pandian comes with an unconfigured Openbox as a possible session. Here are some config templates.

====== Use the Pandora key to start the menu ======
*If not existent,
cp /etc/xdg/openbox/rc.xml /home/yourUserName/.config/openbox/
* Open the rc.xml with a text editor and search for the section <keyboard>.
* Insert the new keybind:
<keybind key="XF86MenuKB">
<action name="ShowMenu">
<menu>root-menu</menu>
</action>
</keybind>

===== Intuitive Openbox configuration template =====
Prerequisites:
*mapped 'Pandora key' as 'Windows key'(see above)
*optional: use tint2 as panel

Features:
*Changing window by '''[Ctrl] + [up]/[down]'''
*Changing workspace by '''[Ctrl] + [left]/[right]'''
*Closing window by '''[Ctrl] + [Q]'''
*Screenshot (window): '''[Ctrl] + [Shift] + [Alt] + [F11]'''
*Screenshot (whole desktop): '''[Ctrl] + [Shift] + [Alt] + [F12]'''
*and some more

===== Network Fix for pandian-minimal =====
If you download the '''pandian-mark2-minimal-hf_2014-01-02''' image there is a lack of tools for setup wifi networking. 
'''Note: For the actual download of pandian-minimal, wifi-network-tools are included'''
* Therefore download the fix and place it on the SD-Card where pandian is installed. (you need to have local superuser privileges on your own system as the SD contents aren't owned by your user)
* Boot pandian-minimal
* login with user: "root"
* switch to root-directory: "cd /"
* untar the network-fix: "tar -xf /path-where-file-is-located/pandian-mark2-minimal-networking_2014-01-03.tar.gz"
* setup the fix with command "pdMinimalNetwork"

* after the script is finished, run "ceni" and setup your wifi-connection

=== Installation ===

note: It is assumed here, that the card-reader load the card as /dev/sdc.
Please check before which device is your SD-card !
This can be checked with gparted. Minimum requirement 2GB SD-card.

# Download Image ( as 7z )
# Verify md5-checksum: pandian-stable-hf_2013-09-29.001.7z '''2a85bbb40bbe7c6e8f92f058e150951a''' pandian-stable-hf_2013-09-29.001.img '''e62d101dc708de49af1ca7743e2df2bd'''
# Unzip with 7z ( in Linux with 7zr e <image.7z> )
# Copy image to SD-Card ( dd if=<image.img> of=/dev/sdx ) Don't specify "bs="

Username: ''Pandian'' 
Root password: ''Root'' (change after intsallation as per instructions below)

#Open a terminal
#Type "su"
#Type "passwd"
#Enter your new root password when prompted, and then again to confirm.
#Dont forget your password

=== Resize ===
Default installation is limited to 2GB, if you want to expand it, you can, provided you have installed it on a bigger SD-card and want to make use of the space.

* Size will be changed with parted
* parted /dev/sdx
* show size with "print free"

# (parted) print free # Model: USB Mass Storage Device (scsi)

==== Severa tweaks ====
===== Making the Pandora Button work like the Windows key =====
Many users complained, their Pandora Button has no function in Pandian. This can be changed by mapping the button as ''"mod4"''.
*Make sure, the file .pndXmodmap is read in on startup. Open the file ''.xsessionrc'' in your ''home'' directory and, if not existent, add following to the last line:
xmodmap /home/yourUsername/.pndXmodmap
*There must be the absolute path (no "~/").
*Insert in the last line of the .pndXmodmap from your ''home'' directory:
add mod4 = XF86MenuKB

===== Network Fix for pandian-minimal =====
If you download the '''pandian-mark2-minimal-hf_2014-01-02''' image there is a lack of tools for setup wifi networking. 
'''Note: For the actual download of pandian-minimal, wifi-network-tools are included'''
* Therefore download the fix and place it on the SD-Card where pandian is installed. (you need to have local superuser privileges on your own system as the SD contents aren't owned by your user)
* Boot pandian-minimal
* login with user: "root"
* switch to root-directory: "cd /"
* untar the network-fix: "tar -xf /path-where-file-is-located/pandian-mark2-minimal-networking_2014-01-03.tar.gz"
* setup the fix with command "pdMinimalNetwork"

* after the script is finished, run "ceni" and setup your wifi-connection

=== Installation ===

note: It is assumed here, that the card-reader load the card as /dev/sdc.
Please check before which device is your SD-card !
This can be checked with gparted. Minimum requirement 2GB SD-card.

# Download Image ( as 7z )
# Verify md5-checksum: pandian-stable-hf_2013-09-29.001.7z '''2a85bbb40bbe7c6e8f92f058e150951a''' pandian-stable-hf_2013-09-29.001.img '''e62d101dc708de49af1ca7743e2df2bd'''
# Unzip with 7z ( in Linux with 7zr e <image.7z> )

Username: ''Pandian'' 
Root password: ''Root'' (change after intsallation as per instructions below)

#Open a terminal
#Type "su"
#Type "passwd"
#Enter your new root password when prompted, and then again to confirm.
#Dont forget your password

=== Resize ===
Default installation is limited to 2GB, if you want to expand it, you can, provided you have installed it on a bigger SD-card and want to make use of the space.

* Size will be changed with parted
* parted /dev/sdx
* show size with "print free"

we would like to resize the second partition to the nearly end ( -512MB for swap )
# (parted) resizepart # Partition number? 2 # Warning: Partition /dev/sdc2 is being used. Are you sure you want to continue?# Yes/No? YES # End? [1933MB]? 7453MB this is how the partitions looks like after

create Swap (optional)

(parted) mkpart primary linux-swap

End? 7965MB

this is how the partitions looks like after

disregard the 4th entry, the new resized partition is the last one.

resize filesystem
*resize2fs /dev/sdc2

create swap
