Re: [beagleboard] What is the difference between flasher and microSD images?

Thank you for the clarification. I successfully flashed to the eMMC, 
mounted a FAT32 SD card, and everything works great.

There should not be any 'big' issues, i assumed most customer projects
with 'qt' etc might run out of space on the eMMC..

[beagleboard] What is the difference between flasher and microSD images?

2021-04-14 Thread eb
I'm having trouble finding information on the difference between the 
flasher and microSD images. Why can an image made for microSD not be 
flashed to eMMC?

The reason I'm asking is because the Debian 9.12 ImgTec image is only 
available as "microSD", but I want to run this version from eMMC for 
performance and reliability reasons. I also want to mount a microSD as a 
different mount point for writing files. If I flash this image to eMMC, 
will I run into issues? If yes, is there a way to "modify" the microSD 
version to work with eMMC?

Thanks in advance.
