Hi Jose,
First you need to gunzip the file first and then use physdiskwrite to write the
.img file to your CF.

Hi Jose,
You can use the following method.
Physdiskwrite -u astlinux-0.6.2-net5501.img
This will write the .img file to ant CF over 800mb
NOTE: Read the onscreen instructions carefully when you select CF
Cheers

Hi Jose
can't you partition the CF card before you run physdiskwrite? E.g. into
500mb and 1.5 GB partitions ?

HI martin. I was watching that url when at first I tried to install.
however
my CF is 2 gigas and it appears that some protection arise when the disk
is
larger than 800mb so i couldnt use that link to install with
physdiskwrite. here the post I put after the original
when I tried to use physdiskwrite. it ask me What Disk do you want to
write. but the CF is 2 gigas capacity. and it said in cmd.exe that the
disk is larger than 800mb (safety overwrite check) please check another
one
this in windows.
so I couldnt to write the compact flash. and If I could. I dont know how
to make CF boot. or install

Hi Jose
I think the Using Windows to Prepare the CF section of this page still
applies:

my question and please help me is this.
I need to instrall from a windows using physdiskwrite. with a usb card
reader flash compact reader.
the thing is that i dont know the step by step to do so.
what I see it. seems no deep for a neofito guy as I am. I have seen the
runnix install but is not deep enough since only said that it can be
done
with physdiskwrite. but it does not supply HOW.
I download the imgs. and unzip. but I am stuck. cuz i dont know if I
need
to
download runnix first or it came with the astlinux. etc
I even dont know physdiskwrite. but you can told me step by step. in
order
to install astlinux with runix 6.2 in a CF that would work in my new
zonbu
device that is VIA.
so could anyone on this list could tell me step by step how to install
the
astlinux runnix by windows with physdiskwrite
thant way i can begin to use my astlinux system.
thanks so much and thanks in advance
Colin
