Hi,
I’m trying to take the contents of flash that I have working and make a copy of it for distribution.
For instance, you can download a flash imager which will put the default release onto your MMC flash in it’s entirety. I can do that, but then I have to customize to install or configure it to work the way I have chosen for multiple boards. If I could use that flash imager process but have the image it flashes be what I have now, this would be helpful.
I do realize that I can use the dd command as well as connecting a uSD card via a card reader and copy my entire flash over to that uSD and then that uSD will work on another board. That’s a lot slower performing, not my first preference. On the flipside of that, I’m fairly positive that I can NOT boot off of a uSD and then use dd to copy to my MMC flash; maybe I’m wrong there. That would be a good interim solution, but ultimately I think it would be helpful if I could somehow create a flash image where the flasher would just burn my default disk as my starting point for each board, this way an installer person could perform these actions and get repeatable results on multiple boards.
Anyone have any thoughts or know of a set of instructions that might be helpful? Believe me I’ve searched a bit, maybe just used the incorrect terms, I haven’t found anything except the instructions about how to download the default flash image and burn that.
Regards,
