hi ~

各位，我正在使用MFG tool ,使用说明里（Manufacturing Tool V2 Quick Start Guide.docx）

How to Burn Your Own Image with Manufacturing Tool

The processes above are limited to the reference design boards provided by Freescale. All the U-Boot images and kernel images are used to support Freescale reference design boards. If you want to utilize the tool to burn your own image on your own board, all you need to do is the following:

Generate a special U-Boot image and kernel image for MFG tool
Generate a normal U-Boot image and kernel image, maybe customizing rootfs which can be used by the end user.
Refer to the ucl2.xml to create your own operation list. Usually, only changing the original image (U-Boot and kernel) is enough.

The detailed information about how to generate Manufacturing firmware, refer to the Document “Manufacturing Tool v2 Linux or Android Firmware Development Guide.”

其中

Generate a special U-Boot image and kernel image for MFG tool

请问一下，special U-Boot image and kernel image for MFG tool 和 normal U-Boot image and kernel image 有什么区别？我能直接使用normal image 代替 special image吗？

Hi,

Which BSP are you using? If you design the board yourself, you need to build the images for mfgtool. The default mfgtool is working for our reference board. Here you can use the same images. They will work fine.
Have a great day,

You can use target board uboot on MFG tool. There is not difference on uboot. Kernel only have difference for MFGTool

hi Rita Wang

因为我用的并不是yocto，我单独编译的kernel,我想知道mfg kernel 和 normal kernel 哪个地方不一样？然后我有针对性的修改。

Hi,

OK, I know what do you want, here could you please tell me which version BSP are you using first?
Have a great day,

Hi,

You can refer to the follwing document,

6.2 Manufacturing Tool, MFGTool
One way to place an image on a device is to use the MFGTool. The recipes used to build a manufacturing tool image are
linux-imx-mfgtool and u-boot-mfgtool.
To build a manufacturing image do the following -
$ bitbake fsl-image-mfgtool-initramfs

Have a great day,
Rita
