Description
Download Install Disk Image
- You'll need an ADATA UV128/32GB USB stick. You can use a different one but it has to be at least 31,037,849,600 bytes in size. A USB3 stick is highly recommended, even if you're using it in a USB2 port (the flash inside is faster).
- Once you have the stick, download the compressed image from here:
- asd
- Then unzip it. You'll obviously need enough disk space for that, a total of probably 36GB (one compressed + one uncompressed file).
- Write the image to your USB stick:
- If you're currently using linux - you can use the dd command to write to the USB stick. Make sure you write to the device file (e.g. /dev/sdb) and not any existing partition (e.g. /dev/sdb1). You'll need root permissions to be able to write to that device file.
- e.g. dd bs=4K if=linuxmint-17.1-cinnamon-64bit-seneca-ict-2014-v1.adata32.raw of=/dev/sdb
- On windows you'll need to use Win32 Disk Imager. It's a free program.
- If you're currently using linux - you can use the dd command to write to the USB stick. Make sure you write to the device file (e.g. /dev/sdb) and not any existing partition (e.g. /dev/sdb1). You'll need root permissions to be able to write to that device file.
