Unzip it and use Device Manager to browse for the TeraTerm Drivers (located as a sub directory in the zip file you just extracted). Step 3: Windows will find 2 devices (USB Converter A and B) A = JTAG port B = serial port. We want to connect to the serial port. Step 4: Click on Port B, select properties and in the Advance tab ensure LOAD VCP is selected. Step 5: Unplug the device, and plug it back in. Step 6: Using PuTTY, connect to the COM port of "PORT B" and make sure the SPEED is set to 115200. Step 7: You might need to press ENTER once or twice to get the prompt to actually show (sounds silly but it took me a while to figure that out lol). Step 8: Login using the default authentication information (username = root ) (password = nosoup4u)

 Step 1: Plug an ethernet cable into the SheevaPlug and connect it to your router. Step 2: Check the DHCP table on the router to find out the IP that was assigned to the SheevaPlug (i.e. 192.168.15.109) Step 3: SSH root@<ip address> (i.e. 192.168.15.109) Step 4: Insert the SD card into the SheevaPlug's card reader slot. Step 5: dmesg | tail (shows the mount point) (i.e. /dev/mmc1) Step 6: Partition the SD card using fdisk /dev/mmc1 (Delete any existing partitions) Step 7: Create a new partition (C) accept the defaults, make it bootable (a), verify it (p) and write the new partition table (w) Step 8: Create the file system using mkfs.ext3 /dev/mmc1 Step 9: Get the Kernel wget http://ftp.linux.org.uk/pub/linux/arm/fedora/platforms/sheevaplug/uImage-2.6.30-sheevaplug and Distro http://ftp.linux.org.uk/pub/linux/arm/fedora/rootfs/rootfs-f12.tar.bz2 *NOTE: WGET may not be installed on the SheevaPlug so run "yum install wget"**NOTE: If you are not connected to the internet run route add default gw <ip address> and add the name server to /etc/resolv.conf Step 10: Create a mount point using mkdir /media/flash. Mount the SD card using /dev/mmc1 /media/flash. Uncompress the file system using tar -jxf rootfs-f12.tar.bz2. Copy the filesystem over to the SD card using cp -r rootfs-f12/* /media/flash.
