How to generate a .sb file for a bareboard program.

we do a bareboard program for the IMX281 platform. We want to download and boot it from SPI flash.

Could you introduce the process and provide an example for reference?

You can reference the code of imx_28_obds_release_v1_0.tar.gz.

It is standalone On-Board Diagnostic Suit for the i.MX28.

After you decompress the package, you can find "User Guide for i.MX28 On-Board Diagnostics Suite (OBDS)"

You can use tools elftosb to generate sb file. You need write db file. You can reference linux-bootlets.

elftosb already release source code in linux public release.

Hi, thank you for your proposal. Do you know how to write the db file? We find some db file source examples, but we don't know what the meaning of the codes,  can you offer some reference to write the db file? You know in the db file, there are many addresses, how should we find the address? and what they are used for?
