No you don't, this is your decision. Grab a spare microSD and copy a console image to it, then you can boot with the spare microSD and fix the eMMC's extlinux.conf.. > Well I will once again regenerate the image in eMMC and once again format the > SD card in ext4. > At this critical stage, I had an empty SD card, formatted in ext4 with a > single "rootfs" partition. > So the next step (if my understanding is correct) was to create a boot > partition on the SD card, where I could then transfer MLO and u-boot.img. > You say I should edit exlinux.conf. > Ok i will do it as you suggest > And then? > What should I do with this exlinux.conf in order to create a boot partition > on the SD card. > BTW execution of generate_extlinux.sh (which creates exlinux.conf on eMMC) > corrupts eMMC: after execution of generate_extlinux.sh eMMC becomes > "unbootable". It's not unbootable, your using the eMMC, change the root=/dev/mmcblk0p1 to root=/dev/mmcblk1p1 It's hard-coded to the microSD because I spent about a minute writing generate_extlinux.sh to show 'how' it could be done.. https://github.com/RobertCNelson/boot-scripts/blob/master/tools/generate_extlinux.sh#L16 Regards, -- Robert Nelson https://rcn-ee.com/ -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
