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.

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

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"
  1. (parted) print free # Model: USB Mass Storage Device (scsi)
  2. Disk /dev/sdc: 7965MB# Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B# Partition Table: msdos
Number Start End Size Type File system Flags
32,3kB 1049kB 1016kB Free Space
1 1049kB 53,5MB 52,4MB primary fat32
2 53,5MB 1933MB 1879MB primary ext4
1933MB 7965MB 6032MB Free Space

we would like to resize the second partition to the nearly end ( -512MB for swap )

  1. (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

(parted) print free * Model: USB Mass Storage Device (scsi)* Disk /dev/sdc: 7965MB* Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B* Partition Table: msdos

Number Start End Size Type File system Flags
32,3kB 1049kB 1016kB Free Space
1 1049kB 53,5MB 52,4MB primary fat32
2 53,5MB 7453MB 7400MB primary ext4
7453MB 7965MB 512MB Free Space

create Swap (optional)

(parted) mkpart primary linux-swap Start? 7453MB End? 7965MB

this is how the partitions looks like after

(parted) print free * Model: USB Mass Storage Device (scsi)* Disk /dev/sdc: 7965MB* Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B* Partition Table: msdos


Number Start End Size Type File system Flags
32,3kB 1049kB 1016kB Free Space
1 1049kB 53,5MB 52,4MB primary fat32
2 53,5MB 7453MB 7400MB primary ext4
7453MB 7453MB 278kB Free Space
7453MB 7965MB 512MB primary Free Space

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

resize filesystem

  • resize2fs /dev/sdc2


create swap

  • mkswap /dev/sdc3
