    189 It's always best to create your rootfs from scratch using the Newport [wiki:/newport/bsp BSP] when this option is available.  If you're prevented from doing so it is possible to provision the root file system from some Newport boards without too much difficulty.  Newport SBC's are capable of booting from both eMMC and MMC.  The boot device can be selected by the GSC performing a 5x press on the power button.  To provision the root filesystem of located on the eMMC boot from MMC, create an image of the eMMC partition 2 on the MMC, then compress so it can be loaded on other boards.
