IamTryinghttp://beagleboard.org/Products/BeagleBoard-xM - I have tihs board. How can i install Ubuntu 13.10 kernel 3.11 on it?07:00
infinityIamTrying: http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/saucy/main/installer-armhf/current/images/omap/netboot/boot.img-fb.gz07:08
infinityIamTrying: Write that to an SD card, boot, and install.07:08
infinityIamTrying: (Ideally, install to external media, like a USB hard drive)07:09
IamTryinginfinity, Can i just make the boot.img.fb.gz int my USB stick? and install it via USB ?07:10
infinityIamTrying: Been a while since I played with one, but unless it has a burned in SPI that lets you slect a boot device, it almost certainly only boots from SD.07:11
infinityIamTrying: So, you'll need an SD card both for the installer, and for the kernel/bootloader to live on in the final setup (same card, of course, the installer will reformat it).07:11
IamTryinginfinity, I have less trust in Flash card u know. They fail for long run. So was thinking to use USB Stick with higher speed.07:12
IamTryinginfinity, SD card i wanted to avoid if possible07:12
infinityIamTrying: No, no.  You only have to BOOT from the SD card.  Like I said, you should INSTALL the system to an external USB device.07:12
IamTryingOK - infinity07:13
infinityIamTrying: The SD isn't likely to fail if you never write anything to it other than a bootloader and kernel once in a while.07:13
infinity(Which will all happen automatically)07:13
IamTryingOK - infinity, so i have one 16GB SD card and one 120GB USB Disk. Now i write the boot.img-fb.gz in my 16GB SD card? And then while install i choose 120GB USB stick right?07:14
infinityIamTrying: Right.07:16
IamTryingOK - Excellent, thank you so much infinity, will let you know after installation, have a nice day.07:16
infinityIamTrying: Also, that -fb image is if you have a monitor and keyboard attached.  If you're doing it via a serial console, you want this instead:07:17
