1. Configure the boot switch to boot from SD Card as described in Selecting i.MX7 Boot ModesConfigurations. Power on the board and boot into Linux.

2. Flash fsl-image-gui-<YOCTO MACHINE>.sdcard from the SD card to eMMC. This will partition the card and copy U-Boot, zImage, dtb, and root filesystem to eMMC.

   Umount existing partitions (if any) and write the image to flash.

   Code Block
   umount /run/media/mmcblk2p* dd if=/run/media/mmcblk0p3/fsl-image-gui-<YOCTO MACHINE>.sdcard of=/dev/mmcblk2 bs=1MB; sync

1. Configure the boot switch to boot from SD Card as described in Selecting i.MX7 Boot ModesConfigurations. Power on the board and stop in U-Boot.

2. Flash fsl-image-gui-<YOCTO MACHINE>.sdcard from the SD card to eMMC. This will partition the card and copy U-Boot, zImage, dtb, and root filesystem to eMMC.
