  2. Writing the image to the SD card
    Use the following commands for writing the image to an SD card:

    Code Block
    xz -dc rzv2l-solidrun-sd-debian-6391518.img.xz | dd of=/dev/sdX oflag=direct status=progress 
    • For more information, please visit Flashing an SD Card .

    • Note:Plug a micro SD into your Linux PC, the following assumes that the USB-Disk / Micro-SD is added as /dev/sdX and all it’s partitions are unmounted.

  3. SD card insertion
    Please Insert the SD card into your device.

  4. Power connection
    Connect your power adaptor to the DC jack, and then connect the adaptor to mains supply.

Final stages

The following stages need to be done in order to finalise the imaging:

...

  1. Run the following commands before the first boot:
    $ sudo umount fdisk /dev/sda2.
    $ sudo e2fsck -f /dev/sda2.
    $ sudo resize2fs /dev/sda2.
    $ sudo parted /dev/sda.
    $ (parted) resizepart 2.
    $ (parted) 15000 .

  2. Boot your device.

  3. mmcblk0 if using SD or eMMC.

  4. Recreate the rootfs partition (mostly the second partition) by deleting it and then creating a new partition that starts at the next sector after the first one and extends to the end of the drive (or less depending on your needs).

  5. Write the new partition, when prompt about ‘Do you want to remove the signature?’ then answer with Yes.

  6. Run resize2fs /dev/mmcblk0p2 if using SD Card or eMMC.

  7. In this stage the root partition should be big enough to start populating it; but first update the RTC clock.

  8. Connect the RJ45 to your network with internet access (and DHCP server); and then run dhclient.

  9. Update the RTC clock by running ntpdate pool.ntp.org and then hwclock -w.

  10. Run apt-update commands below and then populate the root filesystem as you wish.

Code Block
$ apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y

Here is an example of the same process in the rzg2lc device until the 3rd step (include):

...

After those steps you should end the process in this way (step 4 to the end):

...

In the end you should see with “lsblk” that the partition size is in the required size.
