Re: Jenux OS, The "Next Jen!"
Hi, the tar file is an image of the armv8a rootfs. To extract this image to a card, use a linux distribution capable of formatting and writing to ext4. First, use fdisk to partition the card. Make two partitions, one from 512B to 100M formatted as fat32, and the other from 100M to the remainder of the card, formatted as ext4. Once the partitions are formatted, mount partition 2 on /mnt or wherever, create a directory under that mountpoint called boot, mount partition 1 on that boot directory you just made, cd to the first mountpoint, and run
ln -s /dev/stdin /dev/st0;curl https://nashcentral.duckdns.org:8100/au … oot.tar.gz|bsdtar -xz
If you get an error about bsdtar: command not found, install bsdtar from your package manager. On arch, do
pacman -S bsdtar
Once the file is downloaded and extracted, unmount both partitions, unplug your card, plug in your new card, USB audio device and keyboard, and apply power.
Since this image uses the mainline kernel, it will only run on pi 3 and newer. It uses the fenrir screen reader for speech output. For audio output, I would recommend the use of a USB sound card if not running headless. The default login is username alarm, password alarm. For root access, sudo is used instead of su.
