Getting Started with Linux- Zedboard, linaro FS

Question

Hi, Dear All,

I am following the reference design "Getting started with embedded Linux- Zedboard", which teaches how to format SD card and boot from SD card with linaro linux system.
When i came to download an image package -
a graphical desktop and that has been tested on the ZedBoard at:

http://releases.linaro.org/12.09/ubuntu/precise-images/ubuntu-desktop/linaro-precise-ubuntu-desktop-
20120923-436.tar.gz

This leads to a page not found. Also i tried to find through the
linaro.org for this release, and each entry leads to a
page not found.

So could anyone send me a valid link or tell me if i can use an alternative one?

Thank you very much!

Best Regards
Xubin

Xubin,

The RFS images are updated constantly, and the links go out of date. However, you can usually find what you are looking for by navigating to the releases.linaro.org and just browsing through the archive directory. For example, the one you are looking for is archived at:

http://releases.linaro.org/archive/12.09/ubuntu/precise-images/ubuntu-desktop/linaro-precise-ubuntu-desktop-20120923-436.tar.gz
