Starting Linux from SD Card 

The Linux kernel and file system can be copied to the SD card for production deployment. As such the 
SD card included in the t4240mfcs kit will contain the different images for linux kernel, root filesystem 
and the device tree binaries in the /dev/sdb partition as mentioned in the figure. 
 

 

 

Figure 17 Table for SD card partition

 

 

 

Steps for Ethernet port setting 

7.1

a.

 

Connect Ethernet cable between server1/server2, where need to upgrade images  and Linux PC  

b.

 

Ethernet port setting  required  at server1/server2 for upgrading the images in SD card, Catch 
kernel prompt and run following command 
 

  sudo ifconfig fm1-mac1 192.168.1.10 up 

 

c.

 

Ethernet port setting at Linux PC side 

 

  sudo  ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.20 up 

 

Upgrade u-boot on SD card 

7.2

a.

 

Go to the directory where 

“ u-boot-with-spl-pbl.bin

” file is present in Linux PC  

b.

 

Copy image into SD card by using scp 

  

scp u-boot-with-spl-pbl.bin 

[email protected]

: 

 

  

Now Copy this binary into /dev/mmcblk0 partition of SD card
