How do I reprogram the Linux boot partitions in the micro SD Flash card from JTAG?

Hi, We are working with a number of Arria V SoC development boards remotely. We have an attached Linux PC with access to user accounts, Altera design software and USB connections to the Console...

So I am thinking I probably cannot program the SD card flash from the JTAG interface, but I can program the SPI attached flash. So is it possible to configure a flash image file which includes FPGA config and the 3 Linux boot partitions and program that via JTAG to the SPI attached flash and then configure the Linux system to boot from the SPI flash?

Thanks Martin
