9- Build U-boot for Congatec QMX6 boards:
10
11$ make mrproper
12$ make cgtqmx6eval_defconfig
13$ make

24host PC (/tftpboot , for example).

Otavio Salvadore186b182015-11-19 19:02:36 -0200423. Booting from the SD card
43---------------------------
44
45- Flash the SPL image into the SD card:
46
47sudo dd if=SPL of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1k seek=1; sync
48
49- Flash the u-boot.img image into the SD card:
50
51sudo dd if=u-boot.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1k seek=69; sync
52
53- Insert the SD card into the big slot.
54
55The boot medium of Congatec QMX6 boards is the SPI NOR flash, so boot
56the board from SPI first.
57
58It is also possible to boot from the SD card slot by using the 'bmode'
59command:
60
61=> bmode esdhc4
62
63And then the U-boot from the big slot will boot.
64
65Note: If the "bmode" command is not available from your pre-installed U-boot,
66these instruction will produce the same effect:
