[edit] Installing latest Debian Jessie

Prerequisite; You need to have the Easy Debian package installed. This provides the scripts to mount and use the chroot debian image.

  1. Download the debian_jessie2sulu_armhf.img image, from original location or from swagman. You can do this directly on N900 using wget for example. Note that the file is about 345MB in size and might take more than 20 minutes to download.
  2. Verify the md5 hash of the download to see the file has not been corrupted. The hash should be 825940649207bdccdf478c4cff0851ca
  3. Unpack the lzma compressed file, this will take about 45 minutes if you do it in the N900 as lzma uncompression is really heavy operation. The uncompressed image is about 2.1GB in size and has md5 hash of fab8adc6b08307d6e5d71a1252c26355
  4. Move the image to a suitable place, for example to your MyDocs or sd card.
  5. Set up your new image to be the Easy Debian image. This is done by editing the file /home/user/.chroot and setting the image location in IMGFILE parameter, for example, if the image is in your MyDocs like this IMGFILE=/home/user/MyDocs/debian_jessie2sulu_armhf.img
  6. Start the Easy Debian image in maintanance mode either from the "Debian chroot" icon or command debian from console.
  7. Update the repository list in Easy Debian 
cd /home/user/MyDocs
wget http://www.swagman.org/juice/debian_jessie2sulu_armhf.img.lzma
md5sum debian_jessie2sulu_armhf.img.lzma
unlzma debian_jessie2sulu_armhf.img.lzma
md5sum debian_jessie2sulu_armhf.img
vi /home/user/.chroot

sudo debian
apt-get update
