Create a bootable class='acmetable' microSD from tarballs
A Linux PC is required, with a Windows PC use the disk image method.
- Download the first microSD partition contents from:
boot.tar.bz2 (3.4MB)
- Download the second microSD partition contents from:
rootfs.tar.bz2 (182.4MB)
- Format a microSD with gparted (read more) and mount it
- Download the binaries
- Untar the binaries to the microSD with the following commands:
$ tar -xvjpSf boot.tar.bz2 -C /media/$USER/boot
$ sudo tar -xvjpSf rootfs.tar.bz2 -C /media/$USER/rootfs
- unmount the microsd and use it to boot on your Arietta
Create a bootable class='acmetable' microSD from disk image
- Download the zipped disk image from arietta.img.zip
- Uncompress its contents to obtain arietta.img file
- Insert a microSD and write arietta.img on it using:
- On Windows: Win32 Disk Imager
- On Linux: sudo dd if=arietta.img of=/dev/sdX where sdX is the microSD device (more info...)
- On Mac: sudo dd if=arietta.img of=/dev/diskN where diskN is the microSD device (more info..)
Notes
- For Arietta G25 with 256 MB of RAM rename boot256.bin in boot.bin in the first partition mounted on /boot
- The image contains just the first two partitions (boot and rootfs) and uses just the first 1.0 GB. To add more
space create a third partition to add in /etc/fstab or enlarge the rootfs partition.
