Hi,
I'm using p-boot as the boot loader and it's awesome. Much more convenient and easy than UBoot.
I thought I could have an SD card inserted with an OS but without a boot sector and install p-boot to the MMC card and have two boot entries, one to boot the MMC OS and the other for the SD one, so I can easily switch between both OSs without having to remove and insert the SD card.
I almost got it working. So although the SD card is inserted, since it doesn't have a boot sector, the boot sequence fails back to MMC and loads p-boot with the boot entries for MMC and SD. The MMC one works and boots the MMC OS, but the SD one just leads to a black screen.
This is my boot.conf file:
I tried using either the PARTUUID as the root parameter as shown above or also /dev/mmcblk0p2, but none of them worked.
What am I doing wrong? Or am I trying something impossible?
