Code is getting stucking while kernel is loading to imx7lup-evk board.

Soubhagya_Sahoo — Mon, 10 Apr 2023 12:09:05 GMT

Hi team,

I am trying to boot my 'imx7ulp-evk' board, so I can load the bootloader while the Kernel is loading code is getting stuck. I am using the 'Yocto project' to build the image and in that the Kernel version is 5.4 and the u-boot version is 2019.04.

For the reference below I am mentioning the log that I'm getting.

Re: Code is getting stucking while kernel is loading to imx7lup-evk board.

Hi @Soubhagya_Sahoo,

I hope you are doing well.

Please make sure that the m4 image ( Provided in BSP with the same version ) is flashed and the value of the kernel parameter root is correctly specified.

Please follow the steps mentioned (For i.MX 7ULP) in 4.4.1.2 Downloading an image to MMC/SD in i.MX Linux ® User's Guide in Linux 5.4.47_2.2.0_DOC

Please mention the boot device and the fdtfile environment value in u-boot.

Please provide the image name and the command used for flashing for further debugging.

Alternatively, One can try with pre-built images provided at Embedded Linux for i.MX Applications Processors

Thanks & Regards,
Dhruvit Vasavada
