Robotino3 usb restore

Introduction

Robotino 3 has a SSD that stores the operating system. A bootable USB stick is used to

• initialy install the Robotino OS to a new SSD
• overwrite the OS on a SSD already in use.

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 restore.sh
