Pre-requisites

Prior to downloading and installing the Mustang build, you will require access to the following equipment:

  • An existing Linux system, for example a laptop or desktop system
  • A USB hard disk enclosure, or a spare disk bay in a Linux system
  • A USB serial "null modem" cable (or USB serial adapter with "null modem" cable), or a serial port and a "null modem" cable

Download Fedora 19 image

Hook up Mustang board

Prior to installing Fedora, verify that the Mustang board is correctly hooked up and ready for use.

Connect serial cable

  • Attach a USB serial cable to your Linux system (or use a serial port), along with a "null modem" cable.
  • Attach the other end of the serial cable to the DB9 connector on the rear of the Mustang system.
  • Attach an Ethernet cable into the first Ethernet port on the Mustang system, which is located furthest away from the DB9 connector, atop the two USB connectors. This is the port that Linux will recognize as "eth0" when booted.
