# Installing a fresh official image to TERES-I
|
|
|
|
In certain cases you might want to update the Linux on the eMMC memory (if the eMMC got corrupted; or if the original installation got damaged; or if there are no other means to update to the latest software release; etc).
|
|
The typical way of installing the operating system of TERES-I is via a micro SD card (there is a micro SD card slot at the right side of the TERES-I).
|
|
You would also need SD card writer.
|
|
Note that the whole procedure takes considerable amount of time and requires good internet connection.
|
|
The procedure is as follows:
|
|
|
|
1. Download and extract the latest image provided by Olimex.
|
|
A download link for the torrent with the latest image is available at the **SOFTWARE** section of the product's page.
|
|
It looks like this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Remember to extract the image from the archive.
|
|
3. Download the img file to a micro SD card (8GB or bigger) using a micro SD card writer hardware.
|
|
If you don't know how, use free software like [Etcher](https://etcher.io/) - it has builds for Linux, Windows, and MacOS.
|
|
Download the installer for your operating system and start the software.
|
|
Select the image that you extracted.
|
|
Then point to the drive of the micro SD card.
|
|
It looks like this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Insert the card in the laptop and start the laptop from the power button; it will boot from the micro SD card.
|
|
5. You will be asked for a username and password in a command line.
|
|
Username is ``olimex`` and the password is also ``olimex``.
|
|
|
|
6. Once you login execute the eMMC install script, that would move the files from the card to the built-in eMMC memory inside.
|
|
Type:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo install_emmc.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You will be asked for confirmation and then you would be prompted to select the emmc drive.
|
|
Select the defaults and wait until the install script completes (it might take up to 15 minutes).
|
|
|
|
7. Remove the card so TERES-I can now boot from the fresh image on the eMMC memory.
