How to boot Ubuntu?

[kingoddball]

Hi!


I've had my Pandora for about a week. Used it about 6 times. Awesome device.


But now I want to start doing to fun stuff!


Showcase why I spend $800 on this to my wife! hahahahahahahahaha.


How do we boot ubuntu?


i.e: Download the newest omap3 from ubuntu servers.


Then what?


Sorry, just need to find the way. I want to start testing all different ARM OS's and things like XBMC direct boot (OpenElec) like on Rasp-Pi.


I just need starting points.

If you know some bash , you can use the build system i made for Slackware:

This is not the latest version, but most useful stuff is here.


You can also look at the Debian tutorials:


http://pandorawiki.org/Debian_On_SD


It's more or less the same.


The very start is grab the rootfs, copy the OP kernel, tweak the autoboot.txt and /etc/fstab .

Did some looking around but couldn't find anything newer than v12. Is there an OMAP3 image for v13 floating around? Or should I just compile it myself.

Yeh there is. In the cdimg Ubuntu downloads.


You can get beta 13.10 for OMAP
