Create a bootable USB-Stick

  • Download the Robotino3 custom image.
  • Take a USB-Stick and format it (quick format will do)
  • Use Core2USB to install this custom image to the USB stick.
  • Download the latest image and it's md5 file from here. With Firefox you need to right-click the file and choose save link.
  • Check the integrity of the image using md5. Run md5 -Check:imagefilename.fsa.md5.
  • Copy the image into the boot directory of your USB-stick.
  • Attach monitor and keyboard to your Robotino 3.
  • Plug the USB stick into any of Robotino3's USB port.
  • Power on Robotino3 and hit the F7 as long as you can see the BIOS startup screen.
  • Select your USB stick from the list (not the UEFI entry).
  • After booting into tinycore the restore script is executed automatically.

Trouble shooting

No image found

This can happen, when mounting of the USB-stick failed. Please try the following steps:

sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb1
sudo restore.sh
