1. Directory

AndroidSDCARDMirrorCreator
|-- AndroidSDCARDMirrorCreator.sh        --- main script
|-- CFG.INC                              --- configuration file
|-- KitKat_LAYOUT.INC                    --- KitKat partition layout
|-- LAYOUT.INC -> Lollipop_LAYOUT.INC    --- symbol link to partition layout
|-- Lollipop_LAYOUT.INC                  --- Lollipop partition layout
`-- readme.txt                           --- this file

2. Need "root" run or "sudo" to run

3. parted and kpartx must be installed
   sudo apt-get instal parted kpartx

4. test pass under the debian 8.2 and ubuntu 12.04

5. The AndroidSDCARDMirrorCreator.sh will look for LAYOUT.INC.
   please make symbol link to the correct partition layout.
   The default symbol link has created for Lollipop_LAYOUT.INC (LAYOUT.INC -> Lollipop_LAYOUT.INC)

6. Command
   AndroidSDCARDMirrorCreator.sh -c
   AndroidSDCARDMirrorCreator.sh -p

7. Example:
   Suppose
   The AndroidSDCARDMirrorCreator directory is in
   ~/AndroidSDCARDMirrorCreator
  
   The Android Images are in
   ~/SD and ~/eMMC
  
   Sdcdard Mirror:
   cd ~/SD
   ~/AndroidSDCARDMirrorCreator/AndroidSDCARDMirrorCreator.sh -c

   eMMC Mirror:
   cd ~/eMMC
   ~/AndroidSDCARDMirrorCreator/AndroidSDCARDMirrorCreator.sh -c
  
8. Once the Mirror has been created. Can be reused. Just use kpartx.

Thanks for the tool Biyong, I gave it a try with L5.1.1 imX7D image but something seems to be wrong with the system partition:

Have you tried with this Android release ?

Thanks, Philippe

Philippe,

I tried L5.1.1_2.1.0-ga. That is why I add some comment in the CFG.INC, according to the  L5.1.1_2.1.0-ga Android user Guide.

But I have no 7D board to do the test.  tested pass on the i.MX6Q sdb board. From the script layer, I treat as the same.

13 # L5.1.1_2.1.0-ga need convert system image

14 # sudo simg2img system.img system_raw.img

15 #SYSTEM_IMG=system_raw.img

16 SYSTEM_IMG=system.img

I have tried using the system image without converting to raw image. I got the same print out like yours.

Please use the simg2img.

You can find some descriptions of simg2img in the  L5.1.1_2.1.0-ga Android user Guide.

In the mfg tool for  L5.1.1_2.1.0-ga, you also can find the command in the ucl2.xml.

Thanks Biyong, I didn't recompile this one and was surprised the precompiled image didn't include the raw image (wondering how distri will be able to flash it without a linux machine). Image is now booting fine until the lock screen but I don't have an iMX7 board to reproduce (only customer got it) and this is a different topic.

Cheers, Philippe.
