(obsolete)

First of all setup a poky-image-sato NFS-TFTP environment using latest images as explained in [[Ubuntu 8.04 IGEP v2.0 SDK Virtual Machine]]

With this kernel the partitions looks like,

<pre>

# cat /proc/mtd

dev: size erasesize name

mtd0: 00080000 00040000 "X-Loader"

mtd1: 00180000 00040000 "U-Boot"

mtd2: 00080000 00040000 "U-Boot Env"

mtd3: 00300000 00040000 "Kernel"

mtd4: 1fa80000 00040000 "File System"

</pre>

To flash files to mtd partitions just use the nandwrite program. For example, to flash the firmware factory v3.2.1-0 download from

*http://www.igep.es/downloads/01-ISEE_Products/IGEPv2/SW_Releases/binaries/firmware/firmware-poky-image-sato-igep0020-3.2.1-0.tar.gz

and copy to target directory /home/root in your board, then follow next steps

<pre>

# cd /home/root/firmware-factory-igep0020-3.2.1-0

# for i in 0 1 2 3 4; do flash_eraseall /dev/mtd${i}; done

# nandwrite -p /dev/mtd0 x-load-ddp-1.4.2-2.igep0020-flash.bin.ift

# nandwrite -p /dev/mtd1 u-boot-arm-2009.11-1.igep0020.bin

# nandwrite -p /dev/mtd2 u-boot-environment.bin

# nandwrite -p /dev/mtd3 uImage-2.6.28-r4-igep0020-20100321091933.bin

# nandwrite -p /dev/mtd4 poky-image-sato-igep0020-20100321084218.rootfs.jffs2

</pre>

Restart your board and enjoy your new firmware. That's all folks.
