Installing the Orbiter
- Format a USB stick. I like Gparted. Use a stick that is at least 1GB.
- Download the file.
- Uncompress it
sudo bunzip2 webpad-gamma1.dd.bz2
- Copy the file to the stick using dd.
sudo dd if=webpad-gamma1.dd of=/dev/sda
where /dev/sda is the location of your USB stick. You can use Gparted to determine the location of your stick.
- Plug the stick into the WebDT 366 and power it on.
- A LinuxMCE splace screen should appear and the installation process will begin automatically.

Troubleshooting:
If you receive the following error:
USB Boot Device : MASS Storage Class [00F9h/FFh/3Fh] Missing operating system. No boot device present. Halting.
you have most likely used dd incorrectly:
sudo dd if=webpad-gamma1.dd of=/dev/sda1
Note the addition of the "1" at the end of "/dev/sda". Be sure and use dd without this, or any other number.
