Plugin the usb drive

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'lsblk')

determine the identifer for the drive you are formating (sdx)


Start fdisk to partition the USB drive:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '/sbin/fdisk /dev/sdx ')
Change the x to identify the drive you need to format
At the fdisk prompt, delete old partitions and create a new one:

Type o. This will clear out any partitions on the drive.
Type p to list partitions. There should be no partitions left.
Now type n, then p for primary, 1 for the first partition on the drive, and then press ENTER, accepting default values.
Exit by typing w.

Create the ext3 filesystem:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'mkdir /alarm
mount /dev/sdX /alarm')
Change x to identify the drive you are formatting

Download and install Arch Linux ARM:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'cd /alarm
wget http://os.archlinuxarm.org/os/pogoplug/bsdtar
chmod +x bsdtar
wget http://os.archlinuxarm.org/os/ArchLinuxARM-kirkwood-latest.tar.gz
./bsdtar -xpf ArchLinuxARM-kirkwood-latest.tar.gz
cd ..
umount alarm')
