Hi,

I have a customer using AM3505. They are asking how do they boot from SD card.

I tried to find it on the user guide, but cannot find.

Please advise.

Thank you!

Hi Adam,

For Linux, the AM35x 05.02 SDK provides all the necessary scripts and tools to create a bootable SD card: You can download SDK on ti.com.

The SDK contains a setup script (setup.sh) which will setup your target File system and any necessary u-boot commands for SD card boot. The SDK will also contain all the necessary kernel and boot code.

Below is the link to the Sitara Software Developers Guide on creating an SD card:

Also the necessary boot mode would need to be setup. If using the Logic PD EVM, you can find that information in the AM35x EVM docs from Logic.
