I wanted to boot into sata and use all of this space and i written down my expierience here. Maybe someone can use this. OK i bought me a "OCZ Vector SSD 256GB" and connected the sata "sata data cable" and "sata power cable". A Description is here http://makeitbreakitfixit.com/2014/03/19/diy-complete-media-system-part-2-hardware-and-os/ available. I choosed a another way but that doesnt matter. First i am booting in the "MMC" and configure the u-boot-prozess via Envoirment-Variables. This is the example do not refer to this output. Code: baudrate=115200 boot=echo No boot source specified bootargs_base=setenv bootargs console=ttymxc0,115200 bootargs_nfs=setenv bootargs $(bootargs) root=/dev/nfs ip=dhcp nfsroot=$(serverip):$(nfsrootfs),v3,tcp bootcmd=run ${src}boot; run sataboot; run mmcboot; run netboot; bootcmd_net=run bootargs_base bootargs_mtd bootargs_nfs; tftpboot 0x81000000 uImage-mx31; bootm bootdelay=5 console=ttymxc1 ethact=FEC ethaddr=00:c0:08:88:9c:ce ethprime=FEC get_cmd=ntp ipaddr=dhcp loadaddr=0x12000000 memory=fbmem=24M gpu_reserved=128M mmcargs=setenv bootargs console=${console},${baudrate} root=${mmcroot} ${hdmi_patch} ${memory} ${video} mmcboot=if mmc rescan; then echo Booting from mmc ...; run mmcloaduimage; run mmcargs; bootm; else mmc boot failed; fi mmcdev=0 mmcloaduimage=ext2load mmc ${mmcdev}:${mmcpart} ${loadaddr} ${uimage} mmcpart=1 mmcroot=/dev/mmcblk0p1 rootwait rw netargs=setenv bootargs console=${console},${baudrate} root=/dev/nfs ${hdmi_patch} ${memory} ${video} ip=${ipaddr} nfsroot=${serverip}:${nfsroot},v3,tcp netboot=echo Booting from net ...; run netargs; ${get_cmd} ${uimage}; bootm nfsroot=/src/nfs4/ prg_uboot=tftpboot 0x81000000 u-boot-with-spl.bin; nand erase 0x0 0x40000; nand write 0x81000000 0x0 0x40000 sataargs=setenv bootargs console=${console},${baudrate} root=${sataroot} ${hdmi_patch} ${memory} ${video} sataboot=if sata init; then echo Booting from sata ...; run sataloaduimage; run sataargs; bootm; else sata boot failed; fi satadev=0 sataloaduimage=ext2load sata ${satadev}:${satapart} ${loadaddr} ${uimage} satapart=1 sataroot=/dev/sda1 rootwait rw serverip=192.168.1.1 splashpos=m,m uimage=/boot/uImage video=video=mxcfb0:dev=hdmi,1920x1080M@60,bpp=32 It seems very easy. I have only to set the "src" to sata or use the Udoo Configuration Tool to set the Boot Device to "sata". Code: fw_setenv src=sata Attention! I can only do this because i flash the ssd-sata with an Distribution before. Example Code: dcfldd of=/media/usb-stick/udooxx_foo.img if=/dev/sda or Code: dd of=/media/usb-stick/udooxx_foo.img if=/dev/sda OK now i am reboot.. Code: sudo reboot Now the UDOO boot from the sata disk. At this Point i could completly remove or umount the "MMC" but i need the MMC to boot into the sata filesystem. Code: root@udoo-debian-hfp:~# lsblk -d NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT sda 8:0 0 223.6G 0 disk mmcblk0 179:0 0 14.9G 0 disk You see that the "-sda1" run under "sda" Device as root Partition. Code: sda 8:0 0 223.6G 0 disk `-sda1 8:1 0 6.7G 0 part / mmcblk0 179:0 0 14.9G 0 disk `-mmcblk0p1 179:1 0 6.5G 0 part Now i have a small Partition of 6GB and i want to expand this to maximum of unallocate space. I disonnect the sata and i boot in the "mmc" again. Use the Udoo Configuration Tool to set the boot device to "mmc" and plugged in the sata and reboot again. Then i turn off the Journal of the ext3 Partition Code: tune2fs -O ^has_journal /dev/sda1 and check the filesystem Code: e2fsck -f /dev/sda1 Code: e2fsck 1.38 (30-Jun-2005) Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes Pass 2: Checking directory structure Pass 3: Checking directory connectivity Pass 4: Checking reference counts Pass 5: Checking group summary information /dev/sda1: 164178/1254176 files (0.6% non-contiguous), 1051617/2504124 blocks i used "gparted" to resize the filesystem that contains my boot-system on sata and click through all "warnings". Code: debian@udoo-debian-hfp:~ $ sudo df -H [sudo] password for debian: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on rootfs 62G 2.7G 57G 5% / /dev/root 62G 2.7G 57G 5% / devtmpfs 459M 0 459M 0% /dev tmpfs 92M 2.7M 90M 3% /run tmpfs 5.3M 0 5.3M 0% /run/lock tmpfs 184M 0 184M 0% /run/shm /dev/mmcblk0p1 6.9G 2.6G 4.0G 39% /media/UDOObuntu Thats all.
