uuu can't burn the linux images into eMMC on the iMX8M Mini

[inigovicentewal]

Hi,

I want to write the images including Image, dtb, rootfs, bootloader etc files into the eMMC on the iMX8M Mini by uuu, therefore I strictly execute following documents:

1.- uuu.pdf 

2.- Linux User Guide.pdf 

I am executing the following steps:

1.- downloading the L4.14.98_2.0.0_ga_images_MX8MMEVK from nxp website

2.- downloading the rececently uuu.exe from github Release 1.3.102 · NXPmicro/mfgtools · GitHub 

3.- Connect the USB power supply to the J302 connector (the USB Type-C POWER connector)

4.- Connect the USB Type-C cable from the serial download connector (J301) to the host machine

5.- Connect the serial debug (connector J901) to the host machine using a USB micro-B cable

6.- Set the boot mode switches to the Download Mode (see sticker or silk on the board)

7.- Turn on the board on ON switch (SW101)

8.- Open CMD

9.- In the CMD, execute: uuu.exe uuu.auto

10.- Turn on the board on OFF switch (SW101) and set the boot mode switches to the eMMC/SDHC3

In the PUTTY terminal I see these messages continuously:

[ 25.673814] usb usb1: USB disconnect, device number 1

What am I doing wrong?

Where do i get kernel image, board dtb file, rootfs or optee image?

Thanks.

Hi Iñigo Vicente 

In  L4.14.98_2.0.0_ga_images_MX8MMEVK the TFA is activated .

Please refer imx linux user guide section 4.1.1

Let us know in case of any concerns.

Thank you very much, but is there any way to view the TFA records by the console? Is there any configuration in U-Boot? Because the only information I have is:

BuildInfo:

-ATF lcb68fa

Hi Iñigo Vicente,

U-Boot only returns the ATF version. There is no console interface for ATF.

Hi Iñigo Vicente 

Yes, OP-TEE project is integrated in L4.14.98_2.0.0_ga_images_MX8MMEVK. OP-TEE package related information you can find in SCR-4.14.98_2.0.0_ga.txt present in L4.14.98_2.0.0_ga_images_MX8MMEVK , and you can also verify that by checking the boot log.

Regarding TFA we are working on that and will reply as soon as we find anything.

Hi Iñigo Vicente

Please follow this link to burn Linux images into eMMC , and follow the quick start guide i.MX 8M Mini EVK for switch configuration of eMMC and serial download mode.

Please, let us know if you face any issues.

Hi karan.gajjar@volansystech.com‌

I already solved my problem, thanks

Another question, Do you know if the OP-TEE project is integrated in L4.14.98_2.0.0_ga_images_MX8MMEVK?

It's right?

TFA is also activated? If not, how can I do it?
