I have a question about sd card partitioning.  The instructions in Freescale 
Yocto user guide 4.1 say:
     sudo dd if=<image name>.sdcard of=/dev/sd<partition>
     sudo dd if=<image name>.sdcard of=/dev/sd<partition bs=1M && sync

No where can I find the partitioning requirements for the sd card.
How is the SD card to be partitioned?
Don't really understand the two commands above.  Unless <partition> is 
different, only difference is block size of writes
Can someone point me to the partitioning requirements?

You don't need to partition the SD card - the image is complete,
with it's own partitioning built in.  Those directions are a bit
misleading as it should read of=/dev/sdX, where sdX is the name
of your SD device; you should never use a partition device here,
rather the entire device.
