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).
# The process of downloading, extracting, and writing the image may take a long time depending on the speed of your network, computer, and USB port.# Once you have the stick, download insert it into your computer, preferably into a USB3 port (it's either blue in colour or has SS writen on it, short for SuperSpeed).# 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 img of=/dev/sdb
#* On windows you'll need to use [http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/ Win32 Disk Imager]. It's a free program.
