Hi,

In my custom board, based on P2041rdb, SD/MMC card is throwing following error while linux is booting up,

Don't know from where to start debugging this error. Can anyone throw some light on my issue.

Thanks,

Hello gourav jain,

Please go to u-boot prompt, and try the following commands to check whether it is possible to access SD card under u-boot.

=>mmc info

=>ext2ls mmc 0:7  /boot

=>ext2load mmc 0:2 10000000 /boot/<exist file>

If it fails, please check the hardware design problem, please refer to the section "eSDHC recommendations" in https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/application-note/AN4403.pdf .

If u-boot can access SD successfully, please attach you whole u-boot and Linux Kernel boot log.

In addition, which version Linux SDK are you using?

Have a great day,
TIC

Hi Yiping,

Thanks for paying attention on my query...

I got following logs,

=> mmc info
mmc - MMC sub system

Usage:
mmc read addr blk# cnt
mmc write addr blk# cnt
mmc erase blk# cnt
mmc rescan
mmc part - lists available partition on current mmc device
mmc dev [dev] [part] - show or set current mmc device [partition]
mmc list - lists available devices
=> ext2ls mmc 0:7 /boot
** Invalid partition 7 **
=>

thanks,

Gourav

Hello Gourav,

Under Linux, please use "fdisk" to create a valid partition on the SD card.

Then under u-boot use the following command to check whether it is possible to read the content in this partition.

=> ext2ls mmc 0:<part_num>  /

Have a great day,
TIC
