cfimager "Failed to unlock drive" error

[dlafreniere]

I am using an i.MX6 processor and the Nitrogen6x development board. I am trying to get the board to boot from a SD card using a QNX image. However, the cfimager.exe tool always returns this error:

H:\>cfimager -raw -offset 0x400 -skip 0x400 -f ipl-mx6q-nitrogen.bin -d h

Failed to unlock drive, closing anyway!

Exception found: -31 Failed to lock the drive

I've tried both a USB and Internal SD card reader, but the same error keeps appearing.

Thanks for any assistance!

Solved. Can't have cfimager on the SD card. The .bin and cfimager.exe in a temp directory on your PC, then execute the command.

Correct. this because the cfimager command formats the SD and if binary is executed from there, the device is already locked and can not proceed the formatting.
