Flash with imx8mp EVK board with uuu

[arno_0]

Try to download full image to internal emmc by uuu.

It looks like as uuu -v -V uuu.auto-imx8mpevk would do the job.

It starts and I get some info in windows console and in device console, but than it stucks at fastboot. Something I do wrong?

Attached the logs.

The expected result would be to boot in internal emmc same as it would from sdcard.

Dear Arno Steffens,

Could you please share me the link where you downloaded the image?

Best regards.

From here:

The image of the rootfs is rather huge, 5...9GB. Does I just need to wait a long time? But I can't see any progress even with -v parameter.

What does this fastboot mean? I see the board booting into uboot at least. But how to go on from there?

Dear Arno Steffens,

Yes. it is necessary to wait that time.

The recommended parameter is -b, please try with the parameter -b

uuu -b uuu.auto-imx8mpevk

It should work fine; it takes around 2 minutes to flash the board.

Best regards.

Knowing it should work I checked that all again. Your log doesn't provide much information. But looking to mines - I miss the imx8mp there.

So the reason simply was an old outdated "uuu". With a new one it runs without a problem.
