Subject: [PATCH] doc: board: xilinx: zynq.rst: add description how to flash a SD card
Date: Tue,  2 Jun 2020 17:55:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200602155536.30594-1-krjdev@gmail.com> (raw)

Add a short description in the ZYNQ documentation how to prepare a SD card and 
copy the related images to SD card.

I think, it's necessary for the documentation to avoid such user questions
(like mine) in this list.

Okay?

+SD Card
+^^^^^^^
+
+To write an image that boots from a SD card first create a FAT32 partition
+and a FAT32 filesystem on the SD card::
+
+        sudo fdisk /dev/sdx
+        sudo mkfs.vfat -F 32 /dev/sdx1
+
+Mount the SD card and copy the SPL and U-Boot to the root directory of the
+SD card::
+
+        sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdx /mnt
+        sudo cp spl/boot.bin /mnt
+        sudo cp u-boot.img /mnt
