Flash Images to NAND¶
using nand-recovery.sh script¶
Variscite provides a sample script which burns all required images (MLO, U-BOOT, zImage, device tree, and UBI rootfs) to NAND-Flash.
For sample script, please refer to : https://github.com/varigit/meta-variscite-amx3/blob/master/utils/nand-recovery.sh
In the above example script, NAND-Flash binaries reside in /opt/TISDK on the SD-Card
Step by step manual flashing of NAND binaries¶
Replacing Nand Flash images can be done from either Linux user space or U-Boot.
