intel-edison-openaps-setup

# Install UbiLinux

Follow the instructions on https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/loading-debian-ubilinux-on-the-edison and then continue here.

# Initial Setup

Log in as edison/edison via serial console

  su -
  echo FIXME-thehostname-you-want > /etc/hostname
  
  nano /etc/network/interfaces
    - Uncomment 'auto wlan0'
    - Don't uncomment or add in eth0
    - Set wpa-ssid to your wifi network name
    - Set wpa-psk to the password for your wifi network

  passwd root       # set a secure password
  passwd edison     # set a secure password

  reboot      # to set hostname and configure wifi

# Update package Repositories

  su -
  sed -i '/^deb http...ubilinux.*$/d' /etc/apt/sources.list

  dpkg -P nodejs nodejs-dev
  apt-get update && apt-get -y dist-upgrade && apt-get -y autoremove
  apt-get install -y sudo strace tcpdump && adduser edison sudo && adduser edison dialout

Next, copy your ssh key to the edison if appropriate, and run 'reboot' to upgrade your kernels and clear out logged in sessions and IDs


# Upgrade

Log in as edison / your password. You can do this via Wifi or over serial console if you wish.

  sudo -i
  sed -i 's/wheezy/jessie/g' /etc/apt/sources.list
  rm -f /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nodesource.list

  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get -y install apt dpkg aptitude
