Boot TI-RTOS from eMMC

I initially posted this in the wrong forum.

Beagleboards can boot off of eMMC I would like to do the same but with TI-RTOS.

What I want is on our product to not have a micro SD card. We are running with TI-RTOS to boot will need to get a filesystem (format and partition FAT32) copy a bootloader and app into the file system just like we do with a micro SD card. The difference is we can't just pull out the micro SD and do this all on a PC we need to be able to do it on a system via the USB.

The steps would look something like this...

  1. Download bootloader via USB.
  2. Command bootloader to format and partition the eMMC.
  3. Via the bootloader copy the files from PC to eMMC via the AM3552.
  4. Reboot via the eMMC (MMC0).


What I am looking for is does a bootloader from TI or community exist that does this or some of this? This seems like there should be an example of this?

What I almost expect is TI would have a bootloader that would make a eMMC device attached to a AM355X device look like a usb memory stick (copy, delete, format...).

But, what I see on the beagle board is call TI for USB or Serial boot.
