at the moment, i am at my wit's end trying to build a simple bootable SD card for the galileo, and since i need one of those to boot my eventual yocto build, i figure this is at least remotely on topic. what is the proper and acceptable format for a bootable SD card for the galileo, and how does one boot from it? i have read *numerous* online recipes, all of which differ subtlely but maddeningly from one another. there is an alleged linux image file one can download: LINUX_IMAGE_FOR_SD_Intel_Galileo_v0.7.5.7z which uncompresses and unloads into the following: ./core-image-minimal-initramfs-clanton.cpio.gz ./bzImage ./image-full-clanton.ext3 ./boot ./boot/grub ./boot/grub/grub.conf but how one "installs" that on an SD card that is bootable by a galileo board is a mystery i have yet to fathom, and various recipes online differ in what they think is required: * some recipes insist the filesystem must be FAT or FAT16, while others claim FAT or FAT32 * one recipe will claim that the partition must be bootable, another insists it works without that * some recipes explain that the SD card should contain one partition (as in, you know, /dev/sdc1), while another recipe *appears* to claim that you need to format the *raw* SD card as a FAT partition i have tried various incantations of fdisk and mkfs and so on, to the point where i am quite prepared to toss this board out a second story window. can anyone point me at a set of instructions that will give me a bootable SD card for this board? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
