I'm having trouble using the MfgTool to load Linux on an sdCard on an iMX8 EVK. I'm using a Windows 10 host. I have both USB ports connected to the host. I open the file mfgtool2-yocto-mx8-arm2-lpddr4-sdcard-sd2.vbs to launch the manufacturing tool. When I press start, the tool locks up and shows

Hello,
Do You have proper Windows 10 driver for UART - USB convertor to run terminal ?
Use the following demo image:

Hi,
For latest releases we suggest to use latest MfgTool-UUU, you can download it form here:
UUU 1.2.135 binary (uuu.exe is for Windows and uuu is for Linux host pc)
Execute the tool in terminal (Linux) or PowerShell as administrator (Windows) with the following command:
Windows:
.\uuu.exe -b sd_all <bootloader>.bin <rootfs>.sdcard
Linux:
$ sudo uuu -b sd_all <bootloader>.bin <rootfs>.sdcard
Hope this helps,
Best regards,
Aldo.

and then nothing else happens. Is that expected?
I have tried writing to the sdcard using the Linux dd command and the EVK did not boot. I have tried writing to the sdcard using balenaEtcher from Windows and the EVK did not boot. I'm using a 32 GB sdcard. That should work, correct?
Hi Yuri,
Thank you for responding. I have boot switches set to

For the record, I just used balenaEtcher to copy the sdcard image to an sdcard and then I plugged the sdcard in to the EVK, made sure the dip switches were set correctly and it booted fine.
Are there default versions of cfg.ini and UICfg.ini that can be used to program the EVK? I'm not clear whether or not I have to edit those files to program an image that comes from NxP on the the EVK?
