1) Yes that is correct.

2) Yes, if you get the latest Linux DVSDK, there are instructions provided on how to do this: http://focus.ti.com/docs/toolsw/folders/print/linuxsdk-am1x.html

JC,

Ti's document is not clear enough sometimes. I did the whole thing and now come back to close the open questions.

u-boot could load uImage from SD card/udisk by u-boot command, also could load ramdisk from SD card( that's for checking file system usage)

I had to get deep into the porting cause our engineer got problems in reading the documents.

Regards,

Power Pan
