mfgtool.exe copy file error

Jonyzhang — Wed, 09 Feb 2022 10:31:10 GMT

I use mfgtool V2.6.2 write imgs to devices. In the ucl2.xml 103 line,rootfs.img file copy to emmc path. After the mfgtool write finish. Start device and check rootfs.img file in the device. In device path has rootfs.img,but file was the wrong size. Source rootfs.img size is 1G,wrong rootfs.img size is 102.6M. The available disk space is 2 GB.

How do I use mfgtool to copy rootfs.img to the device?

Some information:

Hi @Jonyzhang

We recommand you use uuu to flash images. mfgtool.exe is not supported.

uuu release:https://github.com/NXPmicro/mfgtools/releases

Best Regards

I just want to copy files to the device,not flash images. Check my ucl2.xml(ucl2.zip) 103~125lines.Everything is fine except the rootfs.img.

<CMD state="Updater" type="push" body="$ cp $FILE /mnt/backup/factory/rootfs.img">write rootfs to backup partition</CMD>

I tried to replace the rootfs.img with Any files,If the file is larger than 102.6M, it will have a problem otherwise it will be fine.

To solve!

<CMD state="Updater" type="push" body="pipe dd of=/mnt/backup/factory/rootfs.img" file="files/rootfs.img">write rootfs to backup partition</CMD>
