To install the SD Card for my new GoPiGo, I modified my own Raspbian image, as described in Option 3 here:
http://www.dexterindustries.com/GoPiGo/getting-started-with-your-gopigo-raspberry-pi-robot-kit-2/sdcard-2/
But I had to change three things in the instructions before the procedure worked for me:
-
install.sh has to be run in “~/Desktop”
- a line in install.sh references “/home/pi/Desktop” (which is the same as “~/Desktop”)
- “cd Setup/” instead of “cd Setup Files/”
- “sudo ./install.sh” instead of “./install.sh”
Here’s the complete edited text that worked for me (based on my notes which I can’t guarantee are completely accurate because I haven’t retested it on another GoPiGo):
Option 3: Modify your own image
If you want to use your own wheezy installation, you must make the following changes yourself to the Raspberry Pi.
You can download and run our install script. This will automatically download and install all the packages and dependencies required for GoPiGo to your existing Raspbian image.
1). Open the Terminal on your Raspberry Pi and clone the Dexter Industries GoPiGo Repository
cd ~/Desktop
git clone https://github.com/DexterInd/GoPiGo.git
2). A folder named GoPiGo should appear in your current working directory
3). Open it and go to Setup directory
cd Setup/
4). The install script is called install.sh . Make it executable
sudo chmod +x install.sh
5). Run the script
sudo ./install.sh
6). Follow the onscreen instructions and the script will install all the dependencies and will Restart upon completion. Your Raspbian should now be ready to run GoPiGo.
