[Gumstix-users] Overo, boot from NAND via monitor

[Daniel H. <dan...@ni...>]

Hi List, :-)

I'm playing around for quite a while with the overo-board now and still 
couldn't get one thing to work, which i need.
As you know, the overo-board boots from an inserted microSD-card by default.

I have to boot it from the internal NAND flash, even if a microSD-card is 
inserted (and cannot be removed).

The best-fitting command for this would be "nboot - boot from NAND device", 
which results in the error "** No boot device **". "boot" and "bootd" both 
are booting from the microSD-card. When i do "nboot --help", an optional 
parameter "partition" might also be interesting, but i do not know what to 
enter there, because the JFFS filesystem in the monitor is not working, or 
may not be needed (no idea..). I tried some values, starting from 0 to some 
imaginary paths. Didn't work.

So, does anyone know how to boot the factory default Angstrom-Linux on the 
NAND-Flash via the monitor, even if a microSD-card is inserted?

thanks,
Daniel :-)

PS: yes, the board boots from nand-flash when i remove the microSD-card, so 
the factory image isn't damaged.
