pinebook_install_to_SD.sh

[MarkHaysHarris777]

Greetings,  

  The purpose of this post is to make the Pine Installer script available (on the forum) for Pinebook users who want to create SD cards on their Pinebook using the SD card slot, which will allow making SD cards directly on the Pinebook from the network;  this script is similar to the pin64_install_to_emm.sh , as well the rock64_install_to_SD.sh.

  The script does require the  curl  package,  as well the  jq  package.

(  This script allows you to burn Pinebook images from the network, to the SD card while booted from eMMC  )

Notes:
Place the script in the normal place    /usr/local/sbin/pinebook_install_to_SD.sh
make the script executable with :
sudo  chmod  0775  /usr/local/sbin/pinebook_install_to_SD.sh
sudo  chown  root  /usr/local/sbin/pinebook_install_to_SD.sh
sudo  chgrp  root  /usr/local/sbin/pinebook_install_to_SD.sh
To run the script and get usage:
sudo  /usr/local/sbin/pinebook_install_to_SD.sh
To run the script and load xenial-i3 :
sudo  /usr/local/sbin/pinebook_install_to_SD.sh   xenial-i3

If you do not specify a version then the script will pull the most recent (non pre release) from the repos.

(  This script allows you to burn Pinebook images from the network, to the SD card while booted from eMMC  )
