How to create a bootable microSD card[edit | edit source]

The process is relatively straightforward: it consists of writing the WIC file of interest generated by Petalinux onto the SD card. There are multiple ways to do that.

The most common is to use the well-known BalenaEtcher tool (download BalenaEtcher). The following instruction explains how to use it on a Windows host. The procedure is similar when working with a Linux host.

  • Download the desired binary image to flash (*.wic or *.wic.bz2). In case you have a *.wic.bz2, unzip the file in order to have a *.wic file
    • Among the binaries made available in the mirror there are several *.wic.bz2 files for the available releases. In particular, there is the desk-xz7-l-1.0.1_bora_dave-image-devel.wic.bz2 file. This image is the one used to program the microSD card delivered along with the evaluation kit.
  • Connect the microSD card to the PC Host
  • Open BalenaEtcher tool
  • Once the tool is open:
    • Select the binary to flash by clicking on "Flash from file"
    • Select the microSD to flash by clicking on "Select target"
    • Flash the uSD by clicking o "Flash".
