This document was written and tested with the software/hardware combination described in the history table above. However, it contains general concepts that can be adapted on any DAVE Embedded Systems' Linux platform.
We'll explain how to program and configure an [[:Category:SDVX |SDVX ]] to boot in standalone mode, without the need of a system microSD card or an NFS server, with two options:
* booting with NAND only
** In this configuration the whole system will boot without the need of a NOR flash storage, all images and the root file system will be fetched from NAND flash.
This is a common step for both booting options.
* Boot the system via SD or NFS as described into the inhthe e [[SDV04 Embedded Linux Kit (SDVX)#Quick_start_guide|Quick start guide]]
* By default, the NAND is already partitioned to allow booting from NAND-only (see next section) and, thus, some partitions are reserved for U-boot and kernel images. Here we won't modify this default configuration. The [[Memory Tecnology Device (MTD)|MTD]] partitions can be dumped with <code>/proc/mtd</code> (the partition's name should be self-explanatory)
