If the MiniZed is brand new and the eMMC has never been used, it will need to be partitioned and formatted. The PetaLinux BSPs provided by Avnet for the MiniZed include a shell script (format_emmc.sh) to create and format a small (128MB) DOS partition.
The PetaLinux BSPs for MiniZed can be found here: MiniZed
The shell script looks like this:
#Delete partition and add a new one of 128MB
echo "fdisk /dev/mmcblk1 (1 partition of 128MB)"
echo -e "d
o
n
p
1
1
+128M
w
" | fdisk /dev/mmcblk1
echo "sleep 1"
sleep 1
#Format as a DOS partition
echo "mkdosfs -F 32 /dev/mmcblk1p1"
mkdosfs -F 32 /dev/mmcblk1p1
echo "sleep 1"
sleep 1
#Mount eMMC
echo "/dev/mmcblk1p1 /mnt"
mount /dev/mmcblk1p1 /mnt
echo "ls -l /mnt"
ls -l /mnt
#Unmount drive again:
echo "umount /mnt"
umount /mnt
NOTE! You may want to use fdisk first to verify the eMMC is indeed empty. Creating a new partition table and formatting a new partition will destroy any data already on the eMMC.
I have managed to run my minized (again) on Petalinux 2019.2. I just have one more question, do you know what petalinux package is required to have "mkdosfs"?.
I bypassed this issue by flash programming with minimal bootable version from restoring minized tutorial but still I would like to know.
