Partition and format an SD card: - # fdisk -lu /dev/mmcblk0 + 1. Build an image. For example: - Disk /dev/mmcblk0: 3951 MB, 3951034368 bytes - 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 480 cylinders, total 7716864 sectors - Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes - - Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System - /dev/mmcblk0p1 * 63 144584 72261 c Win95 FAT32 (LBA) - /dev/mmcblk0p2 144585 465884 160650 83 Linux - - # mkfs.vfat -F 16 -n "boot" /dev/mmcblk0p1 - # mke2fs -j -L "root" /dev/mmcblk0p2 - - The following assumes the SD card partitions 1 and 2 are mounted at - /media/boot and /media/root respectively.

Install the boot loaders - # cp MLO-beaglebone /media/boot/MLO - # cp u-boot-beaglebone.img /media/boot/u-boot.img - - 3. Install the root filesystem - # tar x -C /media/root -f core-image-$IMAGE_TYPE-beaglebone.tar.bz2 - - 4. If using core-image-base or core-image-sato images, the SD card is ready - and rootfs already contains the kernel, modules and device tree (DTB) - files necessary to be booted with U-boot's default configuration, so - skip directly to step 8. - For core-image-minimal, proceed through next steps. - - 5. If using core-image-minimal rootfs, install the modules - # tar x -C /media/root -f modules-beaglebone.tgz - - 6. If using core-image-minimal rootfs, install the kernel zImage into /boot - directory of rootfs - # cp zImage-beaglebone.bin /media/root/boot/zImage + $ bitbake core-image-minimal - 7. If using core-image-minimal rootfs, also install device tree (DTB) files - into /boot directory of rootfs - # cp zImage-am335x-bone.dtb /media/root/boot/am335x-bone.dtb - # cp zImage-am335x-boneblack.dtb /media/root/boot/am335x-boneblack.dtb + 2. Use the "dd" utility to write the image to the SD card. For example: - 8. Unmount the SD partitions, insert the SD card into the Beaglebone, and - boot the Beaglebone + # dd core-image-minimal-beaglebone.wic of=/dev/sdb + 3. Insert the SD card into the Beaglebone and boot the board. Freescale MPC8315E-RDB (mpc8315e-rdb) ===================================== |
