This is confirmed by TI in StarterWare support forum. Google or the search function at http://e2e.ti.com/support/embedded/starterware/f/790.aspx is your friend. > Neither the bootloader is in ROM nor the MLO app make any use of > Starterware, so if Starterware supports eMMC or not is irrelevant to if you > can boot a Starterware application from eMMC using the ROM and MLO.

The MLO that comes with Starterware and normally is used to boot a Starterware-application itself bases on Starterware. So it depends on its (not existant) features. One of course can create an MLO as only application and try to put all its functionality into that MLO - then the CPU will be able to boot the MLO and eMMC support is not required. But as soon as an separate APP is requied - e.g. because the available space for MLO is not enough - the MLO definitely needs to come with eMMC support. > > [1] http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/StarterWare_MMCSD_Driver > [2] http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/StarterWare_MMC > > >> >> Am Donnerstag, 16.
