Debian / Ubuntu Linux Installation Guide
In the MX+ platform, with the newer IDE and Ethernet controller, both of the two controllers just start supported from kernel 2.6.28.3. Please refer to the guide to help you complete the installation.
How to install Linux on Vortex86MX+ platform?
Preparation:
1. The Linux installation DISC (Ubuntu8.04, 9.04, 10.04, Debian4.0, 5.0)
2. A completely formatted storage (SD, 2.5’ SATA HDD or SATA DOM )
3. Intel/AMD platform Personal Computer
4. Confirm the BIOS setting:
A. IDE Configuration\ IDE mode >> Native mode B. USB Configuration\ USB 2.0 Controller Mode >> Fullspeed
5. The 2.6.30 or higher kernel package DMP provided for Vortex86MX+ platform
Note: The completely formatted storage is helpful to avoid some unexpected error in the procedure. After you plug all the devices and ready to install, please follow the steps as below:
Step1:
Please follow the standard procedure to install the Linux OS base on the Intel or AMD platform first, and make sure your Linux can boot up normally, after install completed.
Step2:
A. Copy the .deb file (kernel package) that DMP provided into your USB pen driver or other removable storage.
B. Press Ctrl + Alt + F1 keys to enter text mode.
The system would ask you to enter your user name and password. C. Plug on the USB pen driver and try to mount it as mnt.
#sudo su #mount /dev/sda1 /mnt #cd /mnt Confirm the actual codename to mount.
Page 24

D. To unpack the kernel package and update.
# dpkg -i xxx.deb # update-initramfs –k 2.6.30-vortex86mx -c # update-grub
E. When these three procedures completed, type reboot to reboot system.
# reboot
Step3:
Moving the storage installed Linux, back to VortexMX+ platform.
Step4:
Turn on the power to boot.

Additional information
for TV-in supported EBOX in Linux OS
The video capture function can be activated with additional driver under the Linux OS. (Recommended OS: unbutu 9.04 with Kernel version: 2.6.28-11-generic)
Installation guide:
-BIOS setting:
On the menu bar, open the PCI PnP menu and select the Allocate IRQ to PCI VGA to set “Yes” as indicated above.
-Install the TV-in video driver.
Please contact where you purchased from for video driver and 2.6.28-11-generic kernel package. (TV-in video driver package contains rdc_drv.so & rdcv4l.ko)
To boot the system of Ubuntu9.04 and enter the console mode to install the Xorg driver on system.
# sudo su # cp rdc_drv.so /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/ # /etc/init.d/gdm stop # X -configure # cp /root/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf # /etc/init.d/gdm start
Check if the X window could be turn on and display normally. Then turn on the terminal to add the useful mirror server for some application installation support as xawtv and tvtime.
# echo "deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jaunty main universe multiverse" >>
/etc/apt/source.list
Page 27
21
Remember to check the update condition after completed the server adding.
# apt-get update
-install the applications for video playing
# apt-get install xawtv # apt-get install tvtime
Note: EBOX TV-in series are supported by most of video applications with video capture function.
The instruction is based on the popular two video applications xawtv and tvtime for reference.
Follow the step to install the module and execute the application.
# cp rdcv4l.ko / # modprobe videodev # insmod /rdcv4l.ko format=2 # xawtv or # tvtime
Note: You will have to install the above four sentences every time you activate the video capture application.
For the tvtime, PAL and NTSC modes are both supported. When using capture device such as surveillance cam or web-cam, we suggested customers to choose the NTSC signal input mode with better performance than PAL input mode.
As for xawtv, there is only one xawtv customized resolution input mode, no other signal input mode for optional.

Taking Care of your EBOX
This section gives you some guidelines on using EBOX-3310MX-D4C series – Safe using, Storing and Handling.
Storing
Do not place EBOX-3310MX-D4C series in a location that is subject to:
Heating sources, such as stove, oven, heater, radiator or air duct
Direct contact from sunlight
Rain or moisture area
Excessive dust accumulation area
High humidity place
Constant or occasional mechanical movement, vibration or shock
Strong magnets or magnetic fields or magnetically unshielded speakers
Ambient temperature of more than 95oF (35oC) or less than 32oF (0oC)
Do not place other electronic device or electrical equipment near EBOX-3310MX-
D4C series. The electromagnetic field of the EBOX-3310MX-D4C series may
cause interference subjecting to malfunction.
Provide adequate air ventilation (circulation) to prevent internal buildup of heat. Do
not place EBOX-3310MX-D4C series near the wall, behind the curtains or draperies,
in between two books that block its ventilation slots. Leave a space of at least 8
inches (20cm) behind the sides and back panel of the EBOX-3310MX-D4C series.
Change of environmental temperature: Problems may occur when there is a
sudden change of environmental temperature, or if the EBOX-3310MX-D4C series
is brought directly from a cold location to a warm one, moisture may condense
inside EBOX-3310MX-D4C series. Turn off the device, and contact your nearest
dealer.
Check the surrounding appliance(s) before using EBOX-3310MX-D4C series.
Since the EBOX-3310MX-D4C series uses high-frequency radio signal and may
interface with radio or TV reception causing interference or poor signal display.
When this happens, relocate the EBOX-3310MX-D4C series by a suitable distance
away from the set.
Do not drop the EBOX-3310MX-D4C series from the working table nor place heavy
objects on top of it.
