How to build imx-boot-imx8qxpmek-sd.bin-flash as in the pre-built image?

[fei_4_xu]

Hi,

I'm using a imx8qxp-mek board with the pre-built images (L4.14.98_2.0.0_ga_images_MX8QXPMEK.zip). I can use uuu.exe to download the image.

From the pre-built zip file, I can find a uuu.auto file, which has a line like this:

SDPS: boot -f imx-boot-imx8qxpmek-sd.bin-flash

But after a successful bitbake, I can only find  imx-boot-imx8qxpmek-sd.bin-flash_spl and imx-boot-imx8qxpmek-sd.bin-flash_linux_m4 in my tmp/deploy/images/imx8qxpmek folder, but not imx-boot-imx8qxpmek-sd.bin-flash.

So my question is: how to build the .bin-flash file as in the pre-build image in yocto?

if u make it only core -a  img

make SOC=iMX8QM flash

then the file name will be 

SDPS: boot -f imx-boot-imx8qxpmek-sd.bin-flash

Hello,

This process is usually describe in our i.MX Linux User's Guide, section 4.5.13 How to build imx-boot image by using imx-mkimage.

I also find this guide quite useful, please take a look as well:

Hope this helps,
