[MinnowBoard] Installing Ubuntu on a micro-SD card

[Simon Glass]

Hi,

I've tried three types of cards now:

- Samsung 'PRO' 16GB
- Sandisk Extreme Pro 8GB

Neither of those were even properly detected in Ubuntu.

- Kingston SDHC 8GB

This got a long way into the install and then died. I saw lots of mmc
errors in dmesg.

Has anyone had any success with this? Any tips on what to buy? Any
idea what the MinnowMax or Linux are doing wrong?

Regards,
Simon
