ArchLinuxARM on iMX233-OLinuXino
This page explains the ways to install ArchLinuxARM (alarm for short) on iMX233-OLinuXino boards. Instructions should work on all 3 variants: maxi, mini and micro.
The official image
The easiest way to install alarm: just follow the official instructions. The image is pre-partitioned and has everything in place. It uses bootlets, so any time the kernel cmdline or DT binary need to be changed the bootstream needs to be rebuilt and reflashed. It is essential that you hit "y" when asked "Do you want the new kernel flashed onto mmcblk0p1? [y|N]" when upgrading the kernel or installing a custom kernel package. U-Boot makes the board much more hacker-friendly.
U-Boot enabled install
Partition the SD card
Install the bootloader
Install the root filesystem
