Hi,

There are two possible ways to download and install image to imx6 nand:

(1) Download uboot and kernel to RAM, burn the NAND from RAM.

(2) Directly download uboot, kernel and rootfs to NAND without intermediate step RAM.

Has anyone done to download and install uboot, Linux kernel and rootfs directly to imx6 nand using imx6 uuu via the Freescale USB HID class? Could you point me the documents and contact me on jupiter.hce@gmail.com I'll pay your advice service.

Thank you.

Kind regards,

- jupiter

you can download the imx6q demo image, then you will find the file named "example_kernel_nand.uuu " in the folder "samples", then change the uuu file as you need, use the command "uuu.exe example_kernel_nand.uuu" to build the image to the nand by UUU

Thanks Joan, could you point me the link to download the image? I actually have already built the nand kernel and rootfs, but I need to built the zImage-initramfs first to run the u-boot and kernel in imx6 RAM, then to install my nand kernel and rootfs to the imx6 nand, any example  how to build the imx6 zImage-initramfs?

Thank you.

Kind regards,
