Hi all,

I am able to flash imx6sl -(warp board) via mfg tool and boot my board sucesfully imx_usb serial downloader ,after that i am using  imx_usb_loader to boot the device using command

sudo    ./imx_usb     u_boot_image_path/u-boot.imx

I need to invoke this command everytime to boot my device AFTER powering the device.

1.     PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW TO BOOT the device in stand alone mode ? (i want to avoid flashing bootloader using the above command evrytime  to power on the device)

I want to boot my device stand alone using nand .

I went  through refrence manual and understood that to select boot device i have to configure booting pins i.e (BOOT_MODE[1:0] = 0b10)

and configure GPIO pins BOOT_CFG1[7:4] as 0000 to boot from nand .

Thanks in advance ..

The i.MX6SL WaRP board does not contain a NAND Flash memory, but contains a MCP memory that includes LPDDR2 as RAM and eMMC as boot media/data storage. So, for the example of how to configure and build an Uboot/OS/Filesystem image, please refer to attached User's Guide for the i.MX6SL EVK board Linux BSP by FSL/NXP:

http://www.nxp.com/products/microcontrollers-and-processors/arm-processors/i.mx-applications-process...

Especially, refer to the Sections 4.3 and 4.4. Please note that on the i.MX6SL WaRP board the eMMC memory is connected to the SDHC2 port unlike the i.MX6SL EVK board on which the eMMC memory sits on the SDHC4 port.

Also, refer to the web site of current i.MX6SL WaRP board design owners:

Have a great day,
Artur
