Install Custom Kernel

Greetings,

I cross-compiled a kernel for my BeagleBone Black and I’d like to update the BBB to that kernel, but I’m not sure how to do that.

This has been my main resource:
http://wiki.beyondlogic.org/index.php/BeagleBoneBlack_Building_Kernel

Using that link, I was able to load the kernel into memory via tftp and run it. Can anyone provide a link or steps to take the uImage file and actually “install” that on to my BBB so a reboot will come up with that kernel?

Thanks very much!

Eric

Try this:

I’ve used the steps in this guide and created a good microSD to boot into Debian on the BBB.
Very concise and well done series of steps on this web page.

Regards,
Greg
