    5 RADIX is the name of the distribution that encompasses all the software found on a standard OSWALD. Currently, stable, testing, and testing 3d releases of the distribution and all the software needed for a working OSWALD can be found on the [ftp://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/oswald/radix/ OSL mirror] in their corresponding directory.

    77To properly install this software on the OSWALD, you can either perform the process manually or use a script that automates the process and creates a SD card that can flash its contents into the OSWALD's NAND. See the section below corresponding to either the scripted install onto a SD card or the entire manual process.

    4040By default, the script will create an auto-flashing card, meaning that if the card is inserted before an OSWALD is turned on, the contents of the card will be flashed to the device's NAND. If you only want to produce a bootable card with the auto-flashing feature turned off use the "-n" flag which would change the command to

    50 If the script completes successfully, a confirmation message should be outputted. Otherwise, an error message should be shown telling you what needs to be changed for the script to run properly (use the oswald-user mailing list or the #oswald IRC channel if you need help). The produced SD card can be booted from and used to flash full RADIX updates to a device's NAND.

    62 The clone-oswald script found in the standard RADIX file system can clone a running OSWALD's file system and other software (x-loader, u-boot, and kernel) onto a bootable SD card. This allows a user to backup their OSWALD to an SD card or transfer their settings and programs to a friend's OSWALD. Note that the script only makes a copy of the data found on the OSWALD's NAND and not on any external devices, such as USB flash drives, that are plugged into the system. To properly clone an OSWALD to an SD card, use the following instructions.
