15 <h1>Pico Projector Development Kit</h1>
16 <p>Congratulations on your new DLP Pico Projector Development Kit. This is where you can find some demos to try it out with your BeagleBoard.</p>
17 <h1>Initializing an SD card from a Linux host</h1>
18 <p>You'll need a 2GB or greater SD card and an adapter that works with your Linux host to configure Linux on your BeagleBoard.</p>
19 <h2>If you already have a Linux host</h2>
23 Format the SD card, two alternatives.
26 <a href="http://nishanthmenon.blogspot.com/2008/08/how-to-boot-beagle.html">Gparted method</a>
29 <a href="http://code.google.com/p/beagleboard/wiki/LinuxBootDiskFormat">Fdisk method</a>
34 Download the two SD partition images.
37 <a href="http://www.mybloop.com/go/Hc8737">pico_sd_fat.tar.bz2.</a>
40 <a href="http://www.mybloop.com/go/sRpQx0">pico_sd_ext3.tar.bz2.</a>
45 With the SD formatted and mounted on your Linux host, extract the
46 partition images to the SD card. Assumes you're in the directory
47 where the image files reside otherwise type the full path of the image
48 file. Replace /media/beagle_fat with your SD fat partition mount
49 point, same for /media/beagle_ext3.
51 <li>sudo tar xvjf pico_sd_fat.tar.bz2 -C /media/beagle_fat</li>
52 <li>sudo tar xvjf pico_sd_ext3.tar.bz2 -C /media/beagle_ext3</li>

60 <h3>Creating a Linux installation under Windows</h3>
61 <p>If you'd like to install Linux under a on your Windows PC, without disrupting your Windows setup consider installing Linux in a virtual machine with VMWare. The below video gives a description of how to get started:</p>

69 <h2>Using 'dd' from any operating system</h2>
70 <p>A 'dd' image can be created from Linux without access to an SD card, then written from any operating system where 'dd' can be run.</p>
