The command for me was: sudo dd if=$RPIDIR/archlinux-hf-2013-07-22.img of=/dev/disk1 bs=4m
It also took about 20 minutes to write.
- nwh 13y agoFor the love of everything fluffy, don't run that command if you don't know what you're doing!
- vinceguidry 13y agoIf you don't know what dd does, never run it. You really should know what all commands do, but dd can hose your system very easily.
- miksago 13y agoYeah, I'm working on updated instructions at the moment. You may get stuck at the step that's "Install a new kernel on the RPi." if your system is i386; Those instructions only work on x86_64, afaik. I'm keeping a log of what I try to see if I can make things faster / better.
- Lifescape 13y agoYep, got stuck on that step :P Decided to go with an Arch Vagrant box (Specifically Arch Linux x86_64 (2013-08) from http://www.vagrantbox.es/ http://www.vagrantbox.es/). Running into issues with make in Step 5: drivers/thermal/bcm2835-thermal.c:21:23: fatal error: mach/vcio.h: No such file or directory Has anyone here run into this issue?
- miksago 13y agoI've just tried to install crosstool-ng on Mac OS X 10.6.8 (i386), and building it just never works.
