iMX USB loader error

[logifrancis]

Hi,

We have designed a board with iMx6Q processor. We are doing bringup of that board. voltages, clock etc is tested OK. Using DDR Stress tool, we have verified the memory in the board too. Now we were trying to use iMX USB Loader and boot the board from memory. We installed iMX USB loader in a Ubuntu machine. powered up the board, put the boot mode as serial download and connected USB OTG port to Ubuntu machine. But when we try to load Uboot image, we were getting error that it is not able to open the device. The log message is given below for information. Can anyone help in identify the issue?

Thanks Weidong Sun. I tried using the MFG tools. But it is not opening. I will put another query on that. Thanks.

Hello Logi ,

    imx_usb_loader is not NXP official tools, please use MFG tools to download images to your board via USB OTG port on windows platform.

Have a great day,

Thanks Gary. After adding 'sudo' in front of the imx_usb command, it worked. Thank you for the help.

Hi Francis,

This most likely mean that you haven't set the permissions for this USB device to your user.

Have you tried using 'sudo' in front of the imx_usb command?

Regards,

Gary
