From 520fc00e2b427f6682bf8e47ccbad6e5e068a0da Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthew Crymble Date: Tue, 14 Dec 2021 12:18:06 -0600 Subject: docs: remove bmaptool instructions for writing filesystems Due to a change in Mender, bmaptool is no longer supported for writing filesystem images. Currently, the only recommended method for writing a filesystem to an SD card is to use dd. The filesystem can still be updated in place using mender. --- host/docs/usrp_x4xx.dox | 6 +++--- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/host/docs/usrp_x4xx.dox b/host/docs/usrp_x4xx.dox index 8fd555593..3c744de36 100644 --- a/host/docs/usrp_x4xx.dox +++ b/host/docs/usrp_x4xx.dox @@ -718,7 +718,7 @@ stopped by hitting Ctrl-C at the APU serial console. \subsubsection x4xx_flash_emmc Flashing eMMC Once the X410's eMMC is accessible over USB, it's possible to write the -filesystem image using `bmaptool`.
