Hi ,

I am working over IMX6 solo based target board. In my design , NOR Flash is interfaced with IMX6 Solo. NOR Flash is supposed to be having uboot , kernel and Dtb files. At what addresses(of NOR Flash) SPL( if required) , uboot  and kernel need to be flashed.

Regards,

Aditya Nagal

Hello,

Please look at hints below about EIM NOR configuration.

 

1.

  EIM (Parallel) NOR configuration of NXP BSP is based on i.MX 6 SABRE-AI design.

 

2.

  From section 4.5.9 [Booting from EIM (Parallel) NOR] of “i.MX_Linux_User's_Guide.pdf” :

SPI and EIM NOR have pin conflicts on i.MX 6 SABRE-AI boards. Neither can be

used for the same configuration. The default U-Boot configuration is set to SPI NOR.

  Please look at section 5.5 (U-Boot configuration) of “i.MX_Yocto_Project_User's_Guide.pdf” regarding U-boot with EIM NOR version.

 

3.

  Finally, please use sections 4.6.3 (Parallel NOR flash memory map) and 4.4.1.4 (Flashing

U-Boot on Parallel NOR from U-Boot) of the Linux User’s Guide.

 

  It makes sense to try the recent BSP (U-boot, kernel, MFG)
