Linux/AM3358: Flashing binaries to eMMC flash from uboot shell

Titus Stalin

Part Number: AM3358

Tool/software: Linux

Hello,

I would like to boot our AM3358 custom board via UART, and just completed it, now I would like to flash all the binaries (MLO, uboot, kernel and filesystem) from uboot shell.

Network and USB interfaces are available on our board to get all the binaries.

We have downloaded the latest TI SDK and trying the same.

Can you please help us to get the document or any wiki link for the same.

Titus,

Thanks for your post. If you are able to get to a U-Boot prompt, you are well on your way to getting this to work. Either USB or Network should be available in U-Boot depending on the configuration. I would recommend Network.

In that case, you just need to TFTP the binaries to RAM and use mmc commands to write the data. This page has details on all of this and will present many different options for you:

I hope this page addresses your questions. If not, let us know how we can clarify.

Thanks for your post.
