Issue with mfgtool

[victorien]

Hi,

I developed a board with an iMX28 processor and for mass production I need mfgtool to program the memory. Because it's for a custom board, I generate a new updater_ivt.sb

When I plug the board to the computer, mfgtool see the device.

When I press start, the firmware is download to the board and on the console, I see the boot log :

I suppose ot miss something in ramrootfs or in kernel but I can't find what. Is there someone who have an idea ?

Best regards

[victorien]

Now I can generate updater_ivt.sb with ltib and it works on my board with mfgtools.

The download and programming work few time. But now the process always fails after the boot and the board is seeing as "Linux file storage gadget USB device" on mfgtools.

How resolve this problem ?

Hi victorien

please create new Community thread.

[victorien]

I installed ltib on a virtual machine with ubuntu 12.04 (I don't find how to do with newer version) and now I can compile with ltib.

I genrerate initramfs and use it on my usual toolchain to generate updater_ivt.sb (with my own zImage and bootlet). Unfortunately, It doesn't work and I have this log when I execute mfgtool :

I compile linux zImage with the same config as ltib but I think it's not enough. How can I create my custom board on ltib ?

Please check documents below talking about some common issues met when

using i.mx28. Hope this will be useful for you.

Thanks but I don't find any information to resolve my problem.

In my previous test, I just generate initramfs with ltib and I think it's necessary to generate the bootloader and the kernel with ltib. Unfortunatly, I don't find how to define a custom board on ltib. Is there a procedure to do that ?

[igorpadykov]

I do not think that such kind of document is available,

in ltib you can select drivers which are used on your board and

change bootlets. I would suggest to look below

Hi victorien

you can look at latest L2.6.35_1.1.0 BSP patches:

L2.6.35_1.1.1_UPDATER_PATCH_UP :

The purpose of this patch release is Fix the updater.sb boot issue in the i.MX28 Linux BSP L2.6.35_1.1.0 release

Thanks for your answer. and for giving more detail :

- I don't use ltib to generate the kernel

- I use mfg tool for windows (1.6.2.048)

- I generate my own updater_ivt.sb for my board (no problem with bootlet and zImage)

- I tried the modification from the patch but it change nothing

I find a test where mfgtool works fine :

- generate updater_ivt.sb for my own board

- execute mfgtool with this file

- I see the kernel boot on the board console

- the last line of the boot is : root@freescale /$ g_file_storage gadget: high speed config #1

- after that, ont the console I did : 'enter' uuc 'enter'

- then mfgtool communicate with my board

I think that it's my initramfs.cpio.gz which is bad and don't launch uuc. Do you confirm that ? Where can I find a boot initramfs.cpio.gz ? or how can I generate it ?

Best regards

[victorien]

With the information that you give to me, I need LTIB. I'll try to install but but is there another way to generate this image ?

[igorpadykov]

Hi victorien

I am afraid that updater for MFG Tools can be generated only with ltib.

Hi

Generate image of type initramfs.
