Hi
I'm having some issues getting a new custom board to boot off u-boot. It's close to the warp7 and came out of production with a blank emmc ( apparently one big user partition ). According to fsl support I can't use the mgftool as yocto ( krogoth ) lacks the initramfs package in which mfgtool requires. Here's what I can do:
1) Using imx_usb load u-boot into ram ( manufacturing switch = 1 )
2) Using u-boot and "ums 0 mmc 0" I managed to get a virtual SD card pop up.
3) I formatted this virtual SD card and partitioned it as close to a normal Linux SD card as possible.
4) I can dd kernel on to the virtual card and it remains after I reset my board ( manufacturing sw = 0 ).
5) What I can't do is flash u-boot permanently. After returning the manufacturing sw to 0 u-boot never runs from power up.
6) What else is odd that in run mode ( sw=0), the board is still actually in manufacturing mode. I can prove this by running imx_usb and loading u-boot back into ram. If I let the ram u-boot run I get my previously flashed kernel loading.
Could this be due to fuse bits; caused by doing things ( partitioning ) manually? Things seem to be ignoring the manufacturing sw and preferring OTG manufacturing mode. So perhaps u-boot IS flashed in but due to the fuse bits it's getting ignored?
How do I check and set these fuse bits if needed?
Any help would be appreciated.
BR,
Ed.
