Actually neither..  It's best to boot into a native Linux
LiveCD/Install, and then copy the MLO with dd to the microSD..

Both Windows and VirtualBox add an extra layer that likes to corrupt
the microSD at that low level..

[beagleboard] Make Micro SD card bootable in windows

2020-10-12 Thread John Dyson 
Hi,

Is there a tool in windows that reliably marks the SD card as bootable to 
change the MLO? Or would it better to do it from virtual box ubuntu?

Thanks
