AtomicPi Flashing


 


Hello,
I'm pleased to report that I have the os working well on my AtomicPi. I am running it from a usb stick. My question is how could I go about installing HamPc to my internal storage? I'm used to seeing installation menus like one would see with distros such as ubuntu etc.

?Thanks for any help,
?-Andrew


 

Hi Andrew,

While I'm fairly versed at creating a flashable image for the Raspberry Pi, I am still learning when it comes to generating a bootable ISO for Linux, so that is why I don't yet have that option available. But soon, perhaps?

For the moment, just make sure there is nothing on your internal storage that you wish to overwrite, and then "flash" the image to the internal drive, just as you would to flash it to the USB stick. That should work.

Forgot to mention... After flashing the image to the internal storage, then use gparted or another partitioning utility to resize the home partition to use the remainder of the disk.

Ok, I think I'm with you. And I would do this from within the pi running on a usb stick??
Also I am very grateful for this awesome project, it's just what I wanted and it runs great on my pi!

I would probably recommend being booted off a separate LiveUSB / LiveCD then plugging in a drive containing HamPC and then copying HamPC over to the internal disk.
