How use Emteria.OS_Installer-x86_64.AppImage to install Android

satimis

Hi all,

I have Emteria.OS_Installer-x86_64.AppImage download. Please advise how to run it on SD card to install Android on Raspberry Pi3 Model B? Where can I find relevant document?

Thanks

It is a program, you should try starting it.

Hi,

Whether just copy it on the SD card without running dd and then start it on Raspberry Pi3?

Do I need an OS pre-installed on the SD card?

Thanks

No, just run it directly on your PC (I assume you have Linux).

On terminal:
$ cd Downloads/
$ ls | grep AppImage

Emteria.OS_Installer-x86_64.AppImage

$ ls -al Emteria.OS_Installer-x86_64.AppImage

 
-rw-rw-r-- 1 satimis satimis 31558488 Sep 26 17:38 Emteria.OS_Installer-x86_64.AppImage

Whether performed following steps.

$ sudo chmod a+x Emteria.OS_Installer-x86_64.AppImage

Then plugin a partitioned SD card on PC

$ lsblk

/media/satimis/D722-6ACB is the mount-point

Then run following command to install Emteria.OS_Installer-x86_64.AppImage on SD card

./Emteria.OS_Installer-x86_64.AppImage /media/satimis/D722-6ACB/

Do I need using sudo? The SD card is vfat system

Please advise. Thanks

No need to give specific path arguments. Just do "sudo ./Emteria.OS_Installer"

Emteria.OS_Installer ?

Whether I need to extract Emteria.OS_Installer-x86_64.AppImage first ?

I don't have AppImageKit, appimagetool and appimaged, running on Ubuntu 16.04 desktop.

$ sudo ./Emteria.OS_Installer-x86_64.AppImage

If you saved it to Downloads, you first need to "cd" there, then do sudo ./Emteria.OS_Installer-x86_64.AppImage

Don't copy it to something like a removable drive, that location might not be executable. Simply leave it it in Downloads, make it executable (chmod a+x), then start it there with "sudo ./Emteria..."

Did you try using your emteria account?

You meant the A/C to download the package?

I'll try it later. Thanks

Not RPi, you need to run it in your PC

"/media...2-6ACB SD Transcend at ....." (the SD card found)

Also tried "umount SD card" but with the same result.

Please help. Thanks

Edit

I found the trick. There is a small icon next to;
/media...2-6ACB
SD Transcent at ..

I must click the icon to proceed.

I'll come back after it finished and having tested the microSD card on Rasp Pi3 Model B

Continue:-

After;

Download

Finished download

Flashing

All done

-> click [QUIT INSTALL] (to finish)

4 icons are shown on the left vertical panel:
50 MB Volume
system
cache
userdata

add following line at end of config.txt
program_usb_boot_mode=1

Remark:
This is a SD card not a microSD card. I need to boot it on USB port.

Power on Raspberry Pi3 B with the SD card on USB port. Anodroid 7.1.2 starts and I can access Internet,

Please advise:

Where can I find the terminal to execute commands
Where can I find poweroff/reboot swtches

Thanks
