1 Introduction

NanoPC-T1

The NanoPC-T1 quad core Cortex A9 single board computer is designed and developed by FriendlyARM for professional and enterprise users. It uses Samsung Quad Core Cortex-A9 Exynos 4412 SoC with dynamic frequency scaling up to 1.5GHz. The NanoPC-T1 has 1GB DDR3 RAM and 8G eMMC onboard. It supports HDMI 1080P(1920 x 1080), IR receiver, 100/10M adaptive Ethernet, USB WiFi,USB 3G, 1080P hard coded video play and excellent 2D/3D acceleration.

5 Ubuntu Systems

5.1 Ubuntu Variants

We make two Ubuntu variants ready:

• 1) Ubuntu Desktop: this is a system with X GUI. Minimum 8G eMMC is recommended to run this system.
• 2) Ubuntu Core: this is a basic server which only contains basic commands and shares the same libraries as the Ubuntu Desktop. Users can install packages with "apt-get".

• Ubuntu Desktop Features

Ubuntu Desktop Feature	Version: Xubuntu Desktop 13.10 Kernel: Linux 3.8
Main Features	Xfce GUI 1080p HDMI output Synchronized LCD and HDMI output Supports both resistive and capacitive touch Supports USB keyboards and mouses Ethernet USB WiFi dongle(e.g. AP6210 WiFi module) Preinstalled SSH and FTP Standard Ubuntu Libraries, users can install them with apt-get

• Ubuntu Core Features

Ubuntu Core Features	Version: Xubuntu Core 14.04 Kernel: Linux 3.8
Main Features	LCD output Supports USB keyboards and mouses Ethernet USB WiFi dongle(e.g. AP6210 WiFi module) Preinstalled Python3 Standard Ubuntu Libraries, users can install them with apt-get

5.2 Install & Run Ubuntu

• Install & Run Ubuntu Core

*Uncompress the Ubuntu Core image file, insert a Minimum 4G SD card to a Host PC.
*Flash the Ubuntu image to the SD card under either Windows or LINUX. Here we took LINUX as an example(Note: please refer to the appendix on how to do it under Windows). We have a flashing script "hc_fuse_ubuntu.sh" which can be obtained from our official CD or our home site.

Our Host PC runs under Ubuntu and the SD card is mounted as /dev/sdb, the ubuntucore-4g.raw image is under the current directory. Please run the following commands to flash the image to the SD card:

# chmod 777 hc_fuse_ubuntu.sh
# sudo ./hc_fuse_ubuntu.sh /dev/sdb ./ubuntucore-4g.raw

After it is done please insert the SD card to your NanoPC-T1 and boot your board from the SD card:

1）If this is a Tiny4412 board, please switch S2 to "SDBOOT";
2）If this is a NanoPC-T1 please press and hold the "Boot" key and power on;

After the command line prompt shows up please run the following commands:

# cd /UBUNTU_INSTALL/
# ./Install-UbuntuCore

For both Ubuntu Core and Ubuntu desktop the password for "root" is "123456".

• Install & Run Ubuntu Desktop

The installation method for Ubuntu Desktop is the same as that of the Ubuntu Core. After you get the Ubuntu desktop image files please follow the same steps to flash it to your board.
