===== Updating existing firmware over ethernet =====
\\
To update bootloader / kernel / devicetree in a running system you have to copy the images in your tftp directory and upload them to the eMMC or SD Card.\\  



Please see [[en:general_information:tftp|How to setup TFTP Server]]


1. Boot from eMMC or SD and stop autoboot in U-Boot\\
<code>Hit any key to stop autoboot:  0
=></code>\\
2. Set U-Boot variable //mmcdev//  according to the drive you want to write to
<code>=> setenv mmcdev <Nr.></code>
++++mmcdev| 
<wrap info>TQMa6x, TQMa6ULx, TQMa7x:</wrap>\\
//mmcdev 0// = eMMC\\
//mmcdev 1// = SD Card\\
\\
<wrap info>TQMa335x:</wrap>\\
//mmcdev 0// = SD Card\\
//mmcdev 1// = eMMC\\
\\
<wrap info>TQMLS102xA:</wrap>\\
<wrap important>mmcdev depends on the placement of eMMC on your module!</wrap>\\
//mmcdev 0// = SD Card **or** eMMC

3. Connect device via ethernet to a tftp server supplying the image\\
4. Provide the correct network configuration in U-Boot: 
  * => setenv autoload no
  * => setenv serverip <serverip> (e.g.: setenv serverip 192.168.100.110) 
  * => setenv ipaddr <ipaddr> (e.g.: setenv ipaddr 192.168.100.111)
  * => setenv netmask <netmask> (e.g.: setenv netmask 255.255.255.0)
5. Provide U-Boot the file name of the desired image on the tftp server: 
  * ++For U-Boot update:| \\
\\
<wrap info>TQMa6x, TQMa6ULx, TQMa7x, TQMLS102xA:</wrap>\\
=> setenv uboot <filename>\\

<WRAP round info>
The u-boot update scripts automatically implement the selection of the primary copy to boot.
