Check during next days for the next release... You are right about uImage-SMDK6410.bin (it should be linux-SMDK6410.bin for all partitions, it is a bug). Check during next days for the next release…

If you have some free time go to the #mer channel on irc.freenode.net, there are people with SmartQ devices and I'm usually there too (zenvoid).

I tried to follow your guide and boot a q7 with a 8gig sdhc sd card. It never booted right from the sd card. it always used the internal sd card.

I can provide you the ttySAC0 output if would help you!

martin
