If you are using the USB-stick that shipped with Robotino you can skip to step number 6, else follow the instructions below.

  3. Use UNetbootin to install this custom image to the USB stick.
  4. Download a Robotino3 image or a Robotino4 image and it's md5 file. With Firefox you need to right-click the file and choose save link.
  5. Check the integrity of the image using md5. Run md5 -Check:imagefilename.fsa.md5.

  7. Attach monitor and keyboard to your Robotino.
  8. Plug the USB stick into any of Robotino's USB port.
  9. Please do not continue without plugging in Robotino to it's power supply.
