    Has anyone prepared some simple steps to boot the Torpedo (using the SOM kit) purely from SD card? We are still in the initial development stages and are rebuilding targets on a daily basis, I'd rather not have to burn each one to NAND to test things.

    It seems some limited support is there as there is a mkLogicSDcard.sh script in the LTIB /bin directory that creates two partitions on an SD card. I'm guessing that you need MLO, u-boot.bin and uImage on the FAT partition and your rootfs expanded on the ext2 partition. I'm not sure what uboot evironment to set, or if I need to use a boot.scr file though.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Uboot official supports this board now. I have it running with U-Boot SPL 2012.07. Let me know if you need any help with that.
