| 3 | ## Getting the base ISO | |
| 4 | ||
| 5 | This script assumes that you are starting with the special ISO from the | |
| 6 | following URL. It already contains video files that the script in this repo | |
| 6eb2a438 AE |
7 | will not try to download. If you are not starting with that image, I suggest |
| 8 | uncommenting the code in `install-extras.sh`. | |

| 10 | <http://jenkins.trisquel.info/makeiso-etiona/iso/trisquel_9.0-fsf_i686.iso> | |
| 11 | ||
| 12 | The corresponding source code ISO can be found here: | |
| 13 | ||
| 14 | <http://jenkins.trisquel.info/makeiso-etiona/iso/trisquel_9.0fsf_sources.iso> | |
| 15 | ||
| 16 | Feel free to test your download with the `trisquel_9.0-fsf_i686.iso.sha256` | |
| 17 | file in this repo: | |
| 18 | ||
| 19 | sha2565sum -c trisquel_9.0-fsf_i686.iso.sha256 | |
| 20 | sha2565sum -c trisquel_9.0fsf_sources.iso.sha256 | |

22 | If you want to use a 64 bit image instead, you can get one below, but you'll |
| 23 | have to copy over the `fsf` directory from the image linked above to your | |
| 24 | member card. Otherwise, you'll be missing the video files that are included in | |
| 25 | the i686 ISO above. The browser window will also currently not launch after | |
| 26 | boot on the alternate 64 bit system. | |

30 | ## Making a bootable USB drive |
| 31 | ||
| 32 | This should work on an external USB drive, ideally one that is 12 GB or greater | |
| 96af59e8 AE |
33 | in size, if you want to intsall all of the media files onto it. Note that using |
| 34 | a loop device will probably not work, partly due to the way syslinux behaves | |
| 35 | with loop devices. If you get that working, feel free to submit a patch to | |
| 36 | <sysadmin@gnu.org>. : ) | |
| be702161 AE |
37 | |
| 38 | You'll need to download and install old versions of syslinux: | |
| 39 | ||
| 06cae008 AE |
40 | * <https://oldarchive.trisquel.info/trisquel/pool/main/s/syslinux/syslinux-common_4.05+dfsg-6+deb8u1_all.deb> |
| 41 | * <https://oldarchive.trisquel.info/trisquel/pool/main/s/syslinux/syslinux_4.05+dfsg-6+deb8u1_amd64.deb> | |
| be702161 AE |
42 | |
| 43 | Check files, install them, and run the script: | |
| 44 | ||
| 45 | sha256sum -c syslinux.deb.sha256 | |
| 46 | ||
| 47 | dpkg -i syslinux-common_4.05+dfsg-6+deb8u1_all.deb | |
| 48 | dpkg -i syslinux_4.05+dfsg-6+deb8u1_amd64.deb | |
| 49 | ||
| 50 | sudo ./live-usb-loader.sh trisquel_9.0-fsf_i686.iso /dev/sdb | |
| 51 | ||
| 52 | ## Installing extra media, including Trisquel 9 source code | |
| 53 | ||
| 214a770e AE |
54 | This command also updates the Web page that shows up on boot. |
| 55 | ||
| be702161 AE |
56 | sudo ./install-extras.sh trisquel_9.0fsf_sources.iso /dev/sdb |
| 57 | ||
| 58 | ## Notes about video files and free space | |
| 59 | ||
| 60 | You may wish to transcode the downloaded videos to save space on the member | |
| 61 | card, in particular `lp2020_kahle.webm` and `lp2020_younghackers.webm`. | |
| 62 | ||
| 63 | ffmpeg -i foo.webm -acodec libvorbis -b:a 64k -vcodec libvpx -vf scale=-1:720 -b:v 800k -preset medium foo_smaller.webm | |
| 64 | ||
| 65 | # check to make sure that the video quality is okay | |
| 66 | mplayer foo_smaller.webm | |
| 67 | ||
| 68 | mv foo_smaller.webm foo.webm | |
| 69 | ||
| 70 | Then optionally update the checksum file for `/mnt/fsf/GNUAV/`: | |
| 71 | ||
| 72 | cd /mnt/fsf/GNUAV/ | |
| 73 | sha256sum ./ > ../checksums.sha256 | |
| 74 | mv ../checksums.sha256 . | |
