the second step about software developer's guide how to prepare the sd

I am  new  with OMAP processor.

first, I install the GLSDK, now I want boot the board, I prepare a 4G sd, 

sudo ${GLSDK}/bin/mksdboot.sh --device /dev/sdY --sdk ${GLSDK} 

but it's wrong ,any other  script can be used  here ?my sd  is /dev/sdb here.

I don't understand the given script here.

thank you very much 

  • Hi Michael,

    What do you mean by wrong? 

    when you type echo ${GLSDK} does it return your glsdk location?

    Regards,

  • Hello John,

    To prepare 4G SD card you must execute - sudo ${GLSDK}/bin/mksdboot.sh --device /dev/sdb --sdk ${GLSDK}

    The example in the release note is only for explanation.

    Mandatory options:
      --device              SD block device node (e.g /dev/sdb)
      --sdk                 Where is sdk installed ?

    Best regards,

  • Hello,

    In addition to the previous comments.

    Try unmounting the sd card and then run the script, but beforehand you should make sure you have all the variables exported as suggested in GLSDK software developers guide (http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/OMAP5_GLSDK_Software_Developers_Guide) & you should make sure that you are giving the correct device (sdcard) as a parameter to the script; you can check which device is your sd card with sudo fdisk -l.

    Best Regards,

    Yordan
