Installing embassyOS
|
|
--------------------
|
|
Once you have extracted the embassyOS ``.img`` file, you will need to flash it onto a microSD card.
|
|
|
|
#. Download `balenaEtcher <https://www.balena.io/etcher/>`_ onto your Linux, Mac, or Windows computer.
|
|
|
|
#. Insert the microSD card into your computer, either directly or using an adapter.
|
|
|
|
#. Open balenaEtcher.

|
#. Click "Select Image" and select the ``.img`` file.
|
|
|
|
#. Click "Select Target" and select your microSD card.
|
|
|
|
.. warning:: BE ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN you have selected the correct target microSD card. Whatever target you select will be **COMPLETELY ERASED**!!
|
|
|
|
#. Click "Flash!". You may be asked to (1) approve the unusually large disk target or (2) enter your password. Both are normal.
|
|
|
|
#. After the flash completes, you may remove the newly flashed micro SD card from any adapter, and insert it into your Embassy's SD card slot.
|
|
|
|
#. Finally, continue to the :ref:`Initial Setup <initial-setup>`, :ref:`Manual Update <manual-update>`, or :ref:`Reset Password <reset-password>` instructions - depending on your need.
