Somebody in the thread at some point said:
| I bought myself an 8Gb uSD and installed Debian on it, but it wouldn't
| boot. u-boot simply said it couldn't find the uImage.bin, which is in
| /dev/mmcblk0p1, with the rest in /dev/mmcblk0p2.
|
| I read that Qi might work better, so I flashed the latest from the
| /andy directory (18.12.08). I added
|
| root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 loglevel=8 rootdelay=5
|
| to append-GTA02 on /dev/mmcblk0p1
|
| When I press the power button, it flashes the red LED twice, vibrates
| very briefly, and then boots from NAND (2008.testing). From NAND, I
| can mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 and /dev/mmcblk0p2 (both ext2) with no
| bother.
|
| What can I do to boot from uSD?
First Qi takes care of root= so the need to handle that is gone. It
sets root= according to where it found the first usable kernel.
So need to remove what you have in partition 1, and add a kernel named
/boot/uImage-GTA02.bin into partition 2 (since that's your rootfs),
which should be ext2 or better ext3.
Qi will check the first 3 partitions for something it can use before
falling back to NAND.
