Hi community,

Our partner tried programing a boot image to NAND (/dev/mtd0) by i.MX6DL with "nandwrite" command, but it was failed.

So they tried also programing with "kobs-ng", and it was succeeded.

On the other hand, i.MX51 could progam a boot image to NAND with "nandwrite" command.

So we want to know is there some restrict to use "nandwrite" with i.MX6DL.

Could you let me know it?

Or there is no restrict and some procedure of our partner was wrong?

Best Regards,

Satoshi Shimoda

Hi Satoshi,

unfortunately can not, "nandwrite" command is used for jffs2 file system.

Freescale i.MX6 BSPs support only ubifs, while i.MX51  - jffs2.
