Title: Boot order
Post by: aauer1 on February 18, 2013, 12:04:03 AM
Hi

today, I finally got my A13 board running. So, it successfully boots the kernel from the SD card. Now, I would like to try Android. The question is, if I "install" an Android image on the NAND flash, is it still possible to boot from the SD card?
So, in general, what's the boot order of the A13 cpu? MMC1 -> NAND ??

Thanks,
Andreas

That's the behavior of my OLinuXino A13-Wifi board at least.

There should already be an Android image (VGA) in NAND when shipped. Just take out the bootable SDCard (or replace it with a non-bootable one for you Android data) and it will boot from NAND.

yes you are right, the boot sequence is like that only.
If you have connected sd card then it will boot from sd card first.
And if there is nothing in sd card then it will boot from nand.
