OS Installation with disk image

Here we describe how to install the OS using a disk image.

Download the disk image:

Identify the device file associated with the target medium.  In this example, we'll assume it's

/dev/sda

As root (or using sudo), unpack the image and write it to the target:

gunzip -c <image> | dd of=/dev/sda

The writing process may take up to 30 minutes, depending on the type of drive.  When it is complete, the OS should now find the device contains two partitions.

/dev/sda1
/dev/sda2

Use the medium to boot the VME Controller.
