eMMC configuration with safe write enable

General Discussion
1

Good morning,

I’m working on the Beagleboard black industrial to strengthen its eMMC storage,
I read we can format or flash it differently so that two specific options are set:

  • SLC instead of MLC (hence 2 Gb of space)
  • Safe write option at controller level,

Does someone know how to handle this ?

Thanks

Jean-François

Hi @jfsimon talk to zmatt on irc… He’s written up a few notes on github/irc on how and why to do this…

Yes thanks, a modified mmc-utils and flash will do the job.
