Hi Gerald, I agree with what you said and that the manual is correct from a hardware point of view. However it would not be out of place (in my opinion) to add a short sentence after this paragraph in section 6.7.2 of the manual: "If you have a uSD card from which you need to boot from, hold the boot button down. On boot, the processor will look for the SPIO0 port first, then uSD on the MMC0 port, followed by USB0 and UART0. In the event there is no uSD card and the eMMC is empty, USB0 or UART0 could be used as the board source." The sentence I suggest could be added would be something like: "Note however that BBB ships with U-Boot on the eMMC configured to boot from the uSD if one is inserted even if the boot button is not pressed." -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
