lubot<tsimonq2> b00:00
Ben_____I'm very new and trying to add lubuntu to an SD card and boot it on the RiotBoard.  THe RiotBoard is like a Rasberry PI00:34
wxlwhich chip, Ben_____ ?00:35
Ben_____evelopment Platform Features. Freescale i.MX 6Solo processor based on ARM Cortex-A9 architecture, operating at speeds up to 1 GHz. ARM Cortex A9 MPCore™ Processor operating at 1 GHz. Freescale Kinetis MCU (K20) Freescale Power Management Integrated Chip (PMIC MMPF0100) 1GByte of 32-bit wide DDR3 @ 800MHz.00:36
wxlsheesh a simple a9 would have been nice :/00:36
Ben_____Sorry, I'm pretty new00:37
wxlso you would want to get the image here https://ubuntu-pi-flavour-maker.org/download/00:40
Ben_____do you think the pi version will work on the RiotBoard00:40
wxlprobably00:41
wxlit's supposed to work for a pi 2 which at least in its earliest format had an a700:41
wxlthough the later model (and the 3) is an a5300:41
Ben_____so just save the file to the sd card and set the board to bood from SD card or do I need to do something special?00:43
wxlyou follow the instructions :)00:43
wxlfirst note a class 6 or 10 microSDHC is recommended00:44
wxlthen you:00:44
wxl 1. download00:44
wxl 2. unxz the download00:44
wxl 3. use dd or ddrescue to do a BIT BY BIT COPY of the image to the sdcard00:44
wxlyou'll note that a bit by bit copy is not a standard copy00:45
wxlif you just copy the .img file it will NOT boot00:45
Ben_____Ok.00:45
Ben_____I tried using Win32Disklmanager to create a bootable sd card but I must have missed a step.00:46
wxlif you look at the sd card and it has an img file on it, you did it wrong00:47
Ben_____I have windows installed on this machine00:47
Ben_____:(00:47
wxlif you look at it and it exposes a whole filesystem (or you can't read it because windows is dumb) there ya go00:47
Ben_____so step one format the sd card?00:48
wxlnaturally :)00:48
Ben_____quick format or overwrite format00:49
wxli'd overwrite it personally but a quick may work00:55
Ben_____I think I'm going to try a usb drive https://rtechsupport.org/kb/linux-installation/00:57
Ben_____Instead of a SD..00:57
wxlif it can boot from it sure00:58
dantrayHow long should install from usb take on average?01:15
wxlnot long dantray01:19
dantrayMy install is taking hours.01:22
wxlif you're using the desktop installer, are low on ram, have a slow internet connection, are using slow usb protocols, or any of the above, that could make sense01:23
Ben_____so i should have install saved on USB.  Not usre if I can boot from the USB :(01:23
dantrayI am using the desktop installer, 4GB ram, Hughes Net connection, 4GB USB.01:30
wxlthe net connection on wifi? cuz that could be an issue. maybe they throttle you? also the size of your USB doesn't say what protocol. 1.x is slow.01:30
dantrayIs on wifi, not throttled, not sure about USB speed.01:32
Ben_____so it load the install file on the USB stick and then plug the USB stick in to the riot board with Ubuntu running can I do an install of lubuntu?01:42
