At what point is booting from MMC on the BeagleBone going to start working ?

I only ask, since, by default, a new BeagleBone is setup to boot from 
MMC, so anyone testing a new kernel will probably expect the same setup 
to work.

BeagleBone boots initramfs from MMC now, which is what mine was shipped to 
do.  Are you asking about rootfs on MMC?  If so, Vaibhav would have a 
better sense of this than I.

Mark,

MMC is dependent on EDMA-DMA conversion patches from Matt, which he has 
already submitted to the list recently. So MMC support will come along with
EDMA support. DMA-EDMA patches are targeted for v3.8, lets see how it goes.


If you refer to the Matt's repo, you should get all the patches required to 
boot MMC support -

Thanks,
