i.MX 8M Mini L4.14.98_2.0.0_MX8MM Image

[jiye]

I have a i.MX 8M Mini eva board and I downloaded the demo image from the website L4.14.98_2.0.0_MX8MM image from this link https://www.nxp.com/webapp/sps/download/preDownload.js

After I flash the image into the eMMc using UUU tool I realized that many packages on this image is missing such as apt-get, dpkg.

Anyone knows how to add those packages into this distribution or I have to recompile the kernel if so what document is the best to refer?

Hi Tang,

You could use the Linux dd command in the following way:

$ sudo dd if=<image name>.sdcard of=/dev/sd<partition> bs=1M && sync

For more information, you could refer to section 6.1 “Flashing an SD card image” of “Freescale Yocto Project User's Guide” document, from the L4.14.98_2.0.0_LINUX_DOCS package.

Hope this will be useful for you.
Best regards!

Hi Tang,

You could refer to the Release Notes of “L4.14.98_2.0.0_MX8MM” to ensure which features are included on the Yocto release.

In case of requiring custom or complementary features, like a package manager, you could take a look to the following Community thread:

Can we add Debian packages(Package_deb) in Yocto build? 

Hope this will be useful for you.
Best regards!

Hi,

I finish the bitbake core-image-base process and then followed the steps to

flash the image to SD card

bunzip2 -dk -f bs=1M conv=fsync

Then my SD card says:

Unable to detect file system! Possible reasons are:

- The file system is damaged

- The file system is unknown to GParted

- There is no file system available (unformatted)

- The device entry /dev/mmcblk0p1 is missing

do you know why? I just format my SD card but I did not assign partitions

into it. I assume I can use the DD directly.

Just want to double check with a concept. Is that possible to add customized modules into the current running image on my device.Or I have to re compile a new image file.
