Take a look at this. http://docwiki.gumstix.org/Root_filesystems_initflash#Using_the_MMC_Card_as_the_Root_Filesystem

Its worked for me in the past.

There is interesting data here http://docwiki.gumstix.org/U-boot#Gumstix-factory.script on the mechanics behind it, but I think that gumstix-factory script is old. The newer one supports mmc and cf. But it shows you the dirty details of getting it working from scratch. I think a lot of this is no longer necessary, but its been a while since I did it myself.

Subject: [Gumstix-users] Can we boot directly from the MMC card

All,

I have been working the WaySmall Basix 200 computer with a 1gb RS-MMC card using the serial connection and Windows XP HyperTerminal for communications. I would like to know if we can boot directly from the MMC card and how I can configure the system to do that. Thanks for your help.
