Plug an ethernet cable into the SheevaPlug and connect it to your router. 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) 3. SSH root@<ip address> (i.e. 192.168.15.109) 4. Insert the SD card into the SheevaPlug's card reader slot. 5. dmesg | tail (shows the mount point) (i.e. /dev/mmc1) 6. Partition the SD card using fdisk /dev/mmc1 (Delete any existing partitions) 7. Create a new partition (C) accept the defaults, make it bootable (a), verify it (p) and write the new partition table (w) 8. Create the file system using mkfs.ext3 /dev/mmc1 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  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. Copy the the kernel over to the SD card using cp uImage-2.6.30-sheevaplug/media/flash/boot  == '''Booting F12(on the SD) from SheevaPlug''' ==
