Hello, I can download a pre-built SD card with Ubuntu and I can replace the kernel on it just fine. However, I don't know how to build such SD card. >From the random articles floating around the net I found - parameter file is found at sector 0x2000 (4MiB) - parameter file defines user partition layout parsing kernel mtdpart commandline argument - user partition 'boot' specified in kernel commandline in parameter file contains the kernel image loaded Replacing kernel and parameters works fine. However, the header before parameters file is problematic. Reportedly it is RC4 encrypted and using this script should produce 'encrypted' binaries that the rom can read: dd if=3188_LPDDR2_300MHz_DDR3_300MHz_20130830.bin conv=sync | split -b 512 \ --filter='openssl rc4 -K 7c4e0304550509072d2c7b38170d1711' > FlashData.bin Supposedly this header starts at sector 64. Partitioning a card, copying sector 64 from a bootable card, copying a DDR init code at sector 68 and copying u-boot at sector 92 I get a card that prints what seems DDR Init code messages and does nothing more. Copying some random bootloader binary downloaded separately to the card makes the device boot from flash again. So I wonder if I destroyed the header somehow and the SD card is just skipped or if I need a special bootloader configured for reading the kernel from SD card or if there is some parameter in that header somewhere which tells the rom to tell the bootloader where to look for the kernel. Also is the layout with sector 68 and 92 fixed or does the header contain information where FlashData and FlashBoot starts? Thanks Michal
