If you prefer that route, to make it even faster you could additionally make use of the bmaptool: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2013-January/013759.html I've used it with the i.MX53 QSB and the improvement was noticeable. I found it hard to get the image to be exactly the right size. There was always a little room left-over (or the image would be too big and wouldn't copy over to the card). This method doesn't (I don't think) support a flexible partition layout, just the generic 2-partition FAT+EXTx. _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list [email protected] https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
