Hi ,
In the reference manual , Boot_CFG1[7:4] are used for Boot device selection. What will be location for writing the SPL
in different boot devices like Nor Flash , Nand , eMMC etc. Could you please refer any document having these details.
Please suggest.

Aditya Nagal
Hi Aditya,
The booting information is in chapter 8 of Reference Manual. There you will find what you need about the boot process.
Regarding your question, SPL is not changing when you change the booting source, it is the fuses that you must configure.
When the imx boot, the romcode will run on first instance, it will read the fuses and will look for te boot source depending on the fuses configuration.

Carlos

Hi Carlos ,
Probably I could not clarify the question. My question is , when I am writing the SPL over SDcard , I write it over the 1K location using the below command .
sudo dd if
=SPL of=${DISK} seek=
1
bs=1k
My question is , when this booting devices gets changed obviously as per the fuse settings , like Nand Flash ,
then at what location SPL need to be written , will it be the same or different.
Hi Aditya,
It does change, I assume you have already downloaded the Documentation package of the BSP that you are using. Please take a look to chapter 4.6 Flash memory maps on i.MX_Linux_User's_Guide.pdf
If you don't have this documentation please let me know the MCU and the Linux version you are using and I will let you know where to get it.
Regards,
Carlos
