Overview
Preparing the SD-card
To boot the system on the ZED or ZC702 board you'll need a SD memory card. The SD card should
have at least 4 GB of storage and it is recommended to use a card with speed-grade 6 or higher to
achieve optimal file transfer performance.
The SD card needs to be partitioned with two partitions. The first one should be about 50MB in size
and the second one should take up the remaining space. The first partition needs to be formatted with
a FAT filesystem. It will hold the bootloader, devicetree and kernel images. The second partition needs
to be formatted with a ext4 filesystem. It will store the systems root filesystem.
