This board would have a empty eMMC without any images flashed on it. I want to flash Android images (android_p9.0.0_2.3.0_image_8mmevk) including the bootloaders, Kernel, system, etc images in the blank eMMC on this board.</P><P>I have below question regarding the process:<BR />1. Will UUU be enough to flash the empty eMMC? Or is their another method/utility required for flashing an empty eMMC?<BR />2. I am planning to use USB Type C on board for flashing the images from a Linux based PC. Will this connection (USB Type A on PC -&gt; USB type C on board, same as in IMX8M Mini EVK) work for flashing the images or do I need to use JTAG or some other method for first time flashing?</P><P></P><P>Thanks</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 27 Jan 2020 07:22:16 GMT https://community.nxp.com/t5/i-MX-Processors/iMX8M-Mini-Flashing-Empty-eMMC/m-p/1002721#M148652 namanthaker 2020-01-27T07:22:16Z Re: iMX8M Mini Flashing Empty eMMC https://community.nxp.com/t5/i-MX-Processors/iMX8M-Mini-Flashing-Empty-eMMC/m-p/1002722#M148653 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi Naman</P><P></P><P>1.
