Update Instruction

Self Installation

You can install the release to your MicroSD or eMMC with the tool dd in Linux or Win32DiskImager in Windows. Please refer this for more detail.

We've reported that some of users can not watch Android logo on their TV while installing even though installation is proceeded. So please wait for 5 minutes since power on and red and blue LED is on. If blue led is started blinking then installation is proceeding, ODROID-C1 will reboot when finished.
