Hi Robert, unfortunately that won't be possible even if the skills are amazing... the SDCARD connections aren't even connected at the via under the BGA :(
Is there really no other way of bring up Linux using only UART? (speed doesn't matter). Is it possible to load linux into ram via uboot's bootz command then boot off it? Thanks in advance again...
