These instructions explain how to install and boot CoreELEC on supported Minix devices from µSD Card by use of a Windows PC. The instructions can easily be adapted for other Operating Systems.

• Personal Computer with Internet Access
• Memory Card Reader
• A compatible Class 10 (USH 1/V 10) or better μSD Card.
• Image Writing Software

• Visit the CoreELEC website
• Select a version to download
• The Download Helper will pop up
• Select Skip that and just show me all download options
• Download the generic image (…Generic.img.gz)
• Write the downloaded image to a μSD Card

• Copy the device tree from the device tree folder on the µSD card to the root of the µSD Card
• Rename the device tree dtb to dtb.img
• Insert the µSD Card into the devices µSD slot
• Boot the device using the reset button method

If the reset button method doesn't work:

• Power button Method (this works with some Minix devices):
  • insert boot media
  • plug in power cord
  • hold power button for a minimum of 6 seconds or until the CoreELEC logo appears

For situations where it is desirable to run CoreELEC in dual boot with Android or as a stand-alone JeOS:

• SSH into the device and execute ceemmc

The above instructions also can be used to create a bootable USB Flash Drive.
