Installing rasbian from ubuntu. usb-imagewriter is no longer available in the ubuntu repositories (under raring, anway), and has been pulled from a PPA referenced by a community doc. But that's cool, it's a fairly easy process regardless.
- download the image from: http://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads
- extract the image:
unzip 2013-02-09-wheezy-raspbian.zip - if you've popped your SD card into your card reader, find the mount with
df to see what device it is. In my case, it came up as /dev/sdb - load the image to your SD card:
sudo dd if=2013-02-09-wheezy-raspbian.img of=/dev/sdb ... grab a beer; it takes a while.
that's it. slap that sucker into your pi, and boot it up! |
