Can't build fw_printenv for imx6ull

[yuce_kurum]

Hello,

I am trying to add fw_printenv and fw_setenv to my yocto build. I have added "u-boot-fw-utils" to IMAGE_INSTALL_append but it causes an error. Error messages are below.

I have tried to create the .config file manually inside of the uboot devshell using "make menuconfig" but it did not help.

Am i doing something wrong? Has anyone successfully built "u-boot-fw-utils" for imx6ull?

Best regards.

Yuce.

Hi  Yüce kürüm 

Along with the above solution provided by Wigros you can also try make mrproper command inside the u-boot devshell,it will help you to solve your errors.

Let us know in case of any concern

Hi,

   I tested it just now , follow the steps below, please!

# cd imx-release-bsp

# gedit .build/conf/local.conf

add the line:

IMAGE_INSTALL_append  += " u-boot-fw-utils"   # a space character must be used before "u-boot-fw-utils".

save and exit.

# source setup-environment build

# bitbake u-boot-fw-utils -c compile

# bitbake u-boot-fw-utils -c install

Then succeeded.

Have a nice day!
