Deploying a MeeGo Plasma Countour ISO Image to a Flashdrive
After you have downloaded the ISO image its a good idea to validate the image against transmission errors. An SHA1 checksum file should be available for every image. You can do this by comparing the hash on equality between image and related checksum file via following command:
user@host# sha1sum <image file>
In case of an divergent output please download the image one more time and check again. After that feel free to deploy the image to an USB flashdrive. By the following example we use the tool 'dd' for this:
root@host# dd if=<image file> of=/dev/<USB flashdrive> bs=1M
Please note, the usage of this tool is potential dangerous! In case of an mistaken output device, all data on it will be unrecoverable lost.
