[meta-ti] Error while writing image on sd card

[Denys Dmytriyenko]

You are trying to make a EFI image, which AM437 doesn't use.

You can use one of the many available methods to boot your AM437 platform, 
SD/MMC boot is just one of the many. There's plenty of documentation and 
examples on http://processors.wiki.ti.com/ specific to TI embedded processors, 
including instructions on how to make a bootable SD/MMC image and even 
existing scripts, like the one that comes with TI SDK products.
