2) You can install using Windows or a Linux computer
Format your micro SD card as fat32 using a windows or linux formatter.
In linux I recommend you zero out the card first...
If you are using Windows to format the SD card then I recommendjust do "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/<flash-drive-device-name> bs=1M count=1". After doing this Gparted will regard you flash drive as completely empty and will offer to create a new MS-DOS partition table - which you should accept.

A quick formating to fat32 is all that is needed.
Open up fatdogarm-pi2-03-15-2018.zip. You will see some files and folders inside a folder.
Drag the contents of the folder to a freshly formatted (fat32) micro SD card.
3) Take out the card from its adaptor and insert in your raspberry pi2
computer. Plug in the power cable. If you wish, you can plug in your
ethernet cable and a wireless adapter.
4) If you have savefile=direct:local in cmdline.txt file
While booting ---> the OS will find a default named save file (fdsave.ext4) and automatically
go to desktop.
If you have savefile=ask
While booting ---> the OS asks for a save file , just press the <ENTER> key.
The operating system will automatically find the fatdog save file.
Note that user's documents and config files are in that save file.
5) You will soon see the desktop with a giant clock on it.

Set your wlan with the tray app.
Check if your ethernet device has been recognized
Tip: Type 'ifconfig' in terminal to check if a network address has been assigned.
___________________________________________________________
A wireless adapter requires some work. Here is how I made the connection...
I first checked that the wireless driver had loaded properly...
Code: Select all
dmesg | more
I saw...
Code: Select all
usbcore: registered new interface driver carl9170
Next I connected my adapter to a wifi network
Control panel > network > Network Setup
SSID (the router's network name) and wireless password for my Cisco router is entered here (see image)
Activate wlan0 now with Network Setup
_____________________________________________
To check the activation....
Type 'ifconfig' in terminal and wlan0 will have a network address assigned to it now.
It is different than ethernet address.
I could find a windows server with fatdog_connect.sh
Network > Fatdog connect
Fill in the address of server and the Share name.
Click 'Connect'
