of manually partitioning SD card.

To further tailor these instructions for your board, please refer to the
documentation at http://www.beagleboard.org/bone and http://www.beagleboard.org/black
From a Linux system with access to the image files perform the following steps
as root, replacing mmcblk0* with the SD card device on your machine (such as sdc
if used via a usb card reader):
From a Linux system with access to the image files perform the following steps:
1. Partition and format an SD card:
# fdisk -lu /dev/mmcblk0
1. Build an image. For example:
Disk /dev/mmcblk0: 3951 MB, 3951034368 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 480 cylinders, total 7716864 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
$ bitbake core-image-minimal
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/mmcblk0p1 * 63 144584 72261 c Win95 FAT32 (LBA)
/dev/mmcblk0p2 144585 465884 160650 83 Linux
2. Use the "dd" utility to write the image to the SD card. For example:
# mkfs.vfat -F 16 -n "boot" /dev/mmcblk0p1
# mke2fs -j -L "root" /dev/mmcblk0p2
The following assumes the SD card partitions 1 and 2 are mounted at
/media/boot and /media/root respectively. Removing the card and reinserting
it will do just that on most modern Linux desktop environments.
The files referenced below are made available after the build in
build/tmp/deploy/images.
2. Install the boot loaders
# cp MLO-beaglebone /media/boot/MLO
# cp u-boot-beaglebone.img /media/boot/u-boot.img
3. Install the root filesystem
# tar x -C /media/root -f core-image-$IMAGE_TYPE-beaglebone.tar.bz2
4. If using core-image-base or core-image-sato images, the SD card is ready
and rootfs already contains the kernel, modules and device tree (DTB)
files necessary to be booted with U-boot's default configuration, so
skip directly to step 8.
For core-image-minimal, proceed through next steps.
5. If using core-image-minimal rootfs, install the modules
# tar x -C /media/root -f modules-beaglebone.tgz
6. If using core-image-minimal rootfs, install the kernel zImage into /boot
directory of rootfs
# cp zImage-beaglebone.bin /media/root/boot/zImage
7. If using core-image-minimal rootfs, also install device tree (DTB) files
into /boot directory of rootfs
# cp zImage-am335x-bone.dtb /media/root/boot/am335x-bone.dtb
# cp zImage-am335x-boneblack.dtb /media/root/boot/am335x-boneblack.dtb
8. Unmount the SD partitions, insert the SD card into the Beaglebone, and
boot the Beaglebone
# dd core-image-minimal-beaglebone.wic of=/dev/sdb
3. Insert the SD card into the Beaglebone and boot the board.
