First Release: October 2020 (QR)
Step 1: Connect to machine over SSH using PuTTY or Terminal
Establish a command line session over SSH.
Windows PC: you will need to install an SSH client. We recommend PuTTY.
Once PuTTY is installed and launched, we'll just need to input the IP address (192.168.7.2 if connecting over USB) to the Host Name field, everything else can be left default.
Macs: this can be done with the default MacOS Terminal
Open a Terminal window and enter
ssh pocketnc@192.168.7.2
You will be prompted for a password, which is
pocketnc
Step 2: Create Missing Directories
Copy and paste the below command into terminal and hit enter (make sure there is no trailing whitespace after the "done":
for i in {0..7}; do sudo mkdir -p "/media/usb$i"; done
2. Verify success. Check that the directories have been created with below command:
ls /media
The SSH window should look similar to the picture below when finished.
