The following figure：when I type the sudo fdisk /dev/sdx, and then type 'p',next type 'd',But when I keep typing d,Linux gave me the same tip.In that case, how am I going to finish p -d -n -p -l -20480...-w

Or I can't read the Linux prompts.

So I can't go back to the document.

Hello guojpf,

You need to download to SDCARD, you are doing the procedure to HDD, the Sdcard should be /dev/sda or sdx, the rest of image creation is ok.

So what should I do in section 4.3.3? Follow the document step by step but it doesn't work。 Am I typing instructions from the document?

Yes it works but it refer to sdX where the X is the label that your operating system get to SDCARD in this case should be sda or sdb.

I'm going to use the following command to get sdX，but I don't know which file to flash.

for example,my board is IMX6 SX-SABRE SDB,I don`t know which image I should flash to the board,

4.3.4 Copying a bootloader image
This section describes how to load only the bootloader image when the full SD card image is not used. Execute the following
command to copy the U-Boot image to the SD/MMC card.
$ sudo dd if=<U-Boot image> of=/dev/sdx bs=1k seek=<offset> conv=fsync
Where offset is:
• 1 - for i.MX 6 or i.MX 7

u-boot-imx6sxsabresd_sd.imx
u-boot-imx6sxsabresd_sd-optee.imx
u-boot-imx6solosabresd_sd.imx
u-boot-imx6solosabresd_sd-optee.imx

I want to boot from my SD card

thanks
