+3. Program NOR/QSPI flash or SD card
+------------------------------------
+The firmware.bin or sdcard.img is an all-in-one image including all things for
+OpenWrt staring up. (except LS1012AFRWY. Refer to 3.3.)
+If you want to install all things into flash, please use firmware.bin.
+If you want to install all things into SD card, please use sdcard.img.
+
+3.1 Program sdcard.img to SD card
+---------------------------------
+sdcard.img could be programmed to SD card in either u-boot environment
+or linux environment. After programming, configure the board to boot
+from SD card.
+
+* u-boot environment
+
+  => tftp a0000000 <image_name>-sdcard.img
+  => mmc write a0000000 0 a0000
+
+  Note: The default sdcard.img size is 320MB. a0000 is the block number for 320MB.
+  blk_num = filesize / 512.
+
+* linux environment
 
+  $ dd if=./<image_name>-sdcard.img of=/dev/mmcblkx
+
+  Note: Need to check the SD card device name to replace "mmcblkx".
+
+3.2 Program firmware.bin to flash
+---------------------------------
+* LS1012ARDB (QSPI flash)
   Start up from bank1, and program firmware to bank2 with below commands.

+3.3 Program LS1012AFRWY
+-----------------------

+  some firmwares on QSPI flash, and kernel/dtb/rootfs on SD card.
+  So both firmware.bin and sdcard.img are needed for OpenWrt starting up.
+
+  To program sdcard.img, please use linux command described in 3.1 on a
+  linux machine.
+  To program firmware.bin, start up board from QSPI flash, and program
+  firmware with below commands. Reset to start up OpenWrt. (LS1012AFRWY
+  supports only one bank.)
