I did this last night. Here's how...
* download the image file from ftp.embeddedarm.com. It's very slow so plan
ahead :)
* Insert the SD card into your USB<->SDcard device
* Open up Disk Utility and right-click on the card device
- click on the actual device itself, not the partitions. The one that's
not indented.
- select 'Information' and look for 'Disk identifier'. In my case it was
'disk1'
* Now click on the partition and see that the 'Unmount' option is now
available at the top
- click 'unmount' (NOT 'eject') after highlighting the partition.
- I only had one partition. You may have to do it for each partition
* Use 'dd' to write the image-file to the disk device, vis:
dd if=/path/to/image-file of=/dev/diskX
... where "diskX" is the identifier you got from Disk utility.
* Type 'sync' at the commandline and take out the SD card.
* Insert the SD card into the TS-7300 and boot it up.
If you're going to do this, *PLEASE* make sure you get the 'diskX' part
correct. You can overwrite your boot partition and render the mac unbootable
when you're playing with disk interfaces like this. I know, you know this, but
it's worth mentioning :)
