* This guide is valid for uSVR, IPC1, IPC2, IPC3, fitlet2<br />
<br />
* NOTE: for fitlet2 advised to set the following BIOS setting: Main -> OS Selection to [Linux]<br />
<br />
== Prepare installation media ==<br />
* A USB DVD-ROM drive or a USB Flash drive of at least 2GB should be used as installation media<br />

$ sudo apt update<br />
$ sudo apt install mint-meta-codecs i965-va-driver gstreamer1.0-vaapi vainfo <br />
<br />
Then run vainfo command, you should see list of supported profiles, for example on fitlet2:<br />
$ vainfo <br />
libva info: VA-API version 1.1.0<br />
libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0<br />
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_drv_video.so<br />
