Update with a Linux PC

plug the SD Card to a card reader (mounted to an Linux PC x86_64)
Find the name of the mounted SD card using e.g. lsblk
This description assumes that the device of the SD card is /dev/sdb
Ensure that no partition of the SD card is mounted

sudo umount -lf $(mount -l | grep /dev/sdb | awk '{print $3}')

Create partition table and ext2-partition on SD card

echo -e "o\nn\np\n1\n\n\nw" | sudo fdisk /dev/sdb
sudo mkfs.ext2 /dev/sdb1

Download latest rootfs:

Unpack rootfs and copy to SD-card

sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/
sudo tar -xvf ubuntu_14.04_arm_fhg_$(VERSION).tar.gz
sudo rsync -aHP ./rootfs/ /mnt/
sync
sudo umount /mnt

Mount the SD card and boot
Set the correct hostname in /etc/hostname (regarding DNS)
