Bug Description
Affects: http://
Board: imx51 babbage3
When running linaro-
Also, /etc/flash-
# cat /mnt/etc/
UBOOT_PART=
The only correct place to install U-Boot is the "whole disk" device. In my case, this should be /dev/sde (i.e., the argument to the --mmc or --image_file option given to linaro-
If after linaro-media-create finishes I manually do:
# mount -text4 /dev/sde3 /mnt
# dd if=/mnt/
# umount /mnt
# sync
This gives me a bootable card, but the U-Boot environment isn't configured properly in this case and I must enter U-Boot commands manually to get the board going.

I'm using the following command line on native mx51evk board, and can install u-boot successfully.
linaro-media-create --dev mx51evk --mmc=/dev/mmcblk0 --hwpack hwpack_ linaro- imx51_20101007- 51_armel_ unsupported. tar.gz --binary linaro- m-headless- tar-20101007- 0.tar.gz
And I'm seeing following line in /etc/flash- kernel. conf
UBOOT_PART= /dev/mmcblk0p2
So can someone confirm that l-m-c supports running on arch beside ARM, saying x86?
It's true that Linaro mx51evk u-boot does not enable env saving on mmc. Not sure if it's author the intention to use boot.scr created by boot.scr to address all env things.
