Hello,

Does anybody happen to know a reference with _details_ of how to format and mkfs an SD card to be bootable for freescale platform?

Google for p1010rdb SD boot?

M

Background: I'm using a freescale utility ( https://github.com/kergoth/boot-format), but it fails at runtime, unhappy with my SD MBR. Console output is shown below.

I've run fdisk/mkfs with various tweaks, getting FAT16+ext2 partitions per the references I've found ( http://www.freescalewiki.com/index.php?title=Getting_started_Guide_for_P101 0/P1014, http://cache.freescale.com/files/32bit/doc/app_note/AN3659.pdf). But boot_format still bails out.

Thanks in advance, Joe K.
