root@rpi-008:~# cat .kermrc
set flow-control none
set carrier-watch off
- Boot the z7io, break into u-boot by pressing
<SPACE>
do this ONCE only in the lifetime of the z7io
- Modify and install a u-boot environment to z7io QSPI FLASH
fatload mmc 0 0x4000000 uboot.env
env import -b 0x4000000
saveenv

Boot the z7io
- The z7io will boot as a standard ACQ400 SYSTEM with RTM2 and 2xACQ424
By default z7io will try to get a network address using dhcp. You should use the table SD/local/sysconfig/machosts to configure your dhcp server.
