To load the Toradex Easy Installer again using an SD card on your Apalis Evaluation Board, follow these steps:

1. Prepare the SD Card:

   • Unzip the Toradex Easy Installer package and copy its contents to the root directory of the SD card.
   • Rename the file boot-tezi.scr to boot.scr. This is necessary because the U-Boot bootloader in the Toradex BSP expects this filename.

2. Boot from the SD Card:

   • Insert the prepared SD card into the SD card slot on your Apalis Evaluation Board.
   • Ensure that the board is set to boot from external media. This might involve setting specific boot parameters or using a boot menu, depending on your board’s configuration.
   • Power on the board. The system should attempt to boot from the SD card, and if everything is set up correctly, it should load the Toradex Easy Installer.

3. Troubleshooting:

   • If the board does not boot from the SD card, double-check that the boot.scr file is correctly named and located in the root directory of the SD card.
   • Ensure that the SD card is properly inserted and recognized by the board.
   • If you continue to experience issues, you may need to consult the Toradex Community or support resources for further assistance.

Keep in mind that this method is not officially supported by Toradex, and success may vary depending on the specific versions of the Easy Installer and the BSP you are using.

Hi @allan.tx,
I have gone through these steps, but in order to clear the eMMC and load the Toradex easy installer, I have to access the u-boot. In my case I am only getting the qnx interface. Is there a way I can clear eMMC without entering into the U-boot console.

Hi @hari
