1 Prepare the SD card for the Minnow Board MAX
2 ============================================
4 1. Partition the SD card with a GPT partition table
6 sudo cgdisk /dev/mmcblk0
10 a) First partition of a few dozens of megabytes, which will be
11 used to store the bootloader and the kernel image. Type must
12 be EF00 (EFI partition).
14 b) Second partition of any size, which will be used to store the
15 root filesystem. Type must be 8300 (Linux filesystem)
17 2. Prepare the boot partition
19 We will format it, mount it, copy the EFI data generated by
20 Buildroot, and the kernel image.
22 sudo mkfs.vfat -F 32 -n boot /dev/mmcblk0p1
23 sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt
24 sudo cp -a output/images/efi-part/* /mnt/
25 sudo cp output/images/bzImage /mnt/
28 3. Prepare the root partition
30 We will format it, mount it, and extract the root filesystem.
32 sudo mkfs.ext4 -L root /dev/mmcblk0p2
33 sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 /mnt
34 sudo tar -C /mnt -xf output/images/rootfs.tar
