oh, i'm currently writing all this up and, at the risk of going *slightly* off-topic, before i set up for a yocto build for this board, i'm just trying to clarify the boot process, both without and with the SD card, so i know i'm bulding my SD card properly. first, without an SD card, the board apparently boots a minimal linux image from SPI flash. so far, so good. as for creating a bootable SD card, i see two possibilities. the first is explained at sparkfun: https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/galileo-getting-started-guide/bigger-linux-image where one can download a file called LINUX_IMAGE_FOR_SD_Intel_Galileo_v0.7.5.7z, which uncompresses into a simple directory structure that you copy to a FAT-formatted SD card. so this SD card, apparently, contains a single FAT partition. on the other hand, over at intel's developer zone: https://software.intel.com/en-us/iotdevkit one can download what is described as "SD card (200MB zipped)", which i unzipped into a file "iot-devkit-201402201605-mmcblkp0.direct", almost 8G in size, and which "fdisk" shows me has the following structure: Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0x0007eabb Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System iot-devkit-201402201605-mmcblkp0.direct1 * 2048 106493 52223 83 Linux iot-devkit-201402201605-mmcblkp0.direct2 106496 14442495 7168000 83 Linux which is more what i'm used to. so am i reading both of these correctly? there are two possible formats for the bootable SD card: * simple, single FAT partition, or * more "standard" pair of bootable FAT partition, and linux ext partition. many thanks. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
