How to install

For KEEP write the image to a USB stick and press and hold the button for 10 seconds while inserting power.

For OPI write the imate to a uSD card, insert it into OPI and apply power.

If data is to be restored from a backup, the recommended way is to make sure that a backup on USB exists (usually faster than downloading from on-line servers), make a clean shutdown of OPI and then leave the USB memory inserted during the setup. The data set can then be chosen during the "Restore" step of the setup procedure.

Installer Configuration

In the installer image there is a configuration file that can be used to alter the behavior of the installer image.

In "/etc/kgp-install.conf" there are few parameters avaialbe:

DO_INSTALL=1

By default this parameter is set to "1", which will cause the image to basically do a factory reset by formatting the internal eMMC and reinstalling system software. Any data on the data disk will be left intact.

DO_ADDROOT=0 

By default this parameter is set to "0". By changing this to "1", the system will be installed a root account is added with the password "op237". This is only available on the serial port, ssh is not enabled by default.

How to connect to the serial port is described here.

Rescue images

Instructions on how to reinstall is available here

The rescue image is very similar to the install image, only that the image does not re-install the system. The system will be available both on the serial port and on ssh with the user/password of root/op237. The root file system can then be accessed and manipulated, but all user data is only available if the encrypted partition in unlocked and mounted by hand.
