**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Apr 14 02:59:58 2012 Apr 14 09:42:45 anyone here owns an hp t5335z by chance? Apr 14 14:23:05 I'm struggling with getting an ubuntu image onto my sd card Apr 14 14:23:34 i follow the instructions at the download website and then nothing seems to get copied to my sd card Apr 14 14:26:58 the command i used was gunzip -c ubuntu-11.10-preinstalled-desktop-armel+omap4.img.gz | sudo dd bs=64k of=sdb1 Apr 14 14:27:45 but when i look to see what's on sdb1 i have exactly the same contents as was previously on the card Apr 14 14:46:37 i have just realised my mistake, should have been of=/dev/sdb1 Apr 14 14:47:05 rather than of=sdb1 Apr 14 19:30:14 spych102: Actually, it should be /dev/sdb as the image file is for the entire SD card, not just a single partition. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Apr 15 02:59:59 2012
