Hello,

 Is it possible to use SPI NAND flash as a boot device on i.MX8 processors?

Thanks in advance,

Yuri

Just to clarify: in both chipsets i.MX8QXP and i.MX8M is there boot ROM firmware limitation or is there some HW limitation?

Thanks you in advance,

Yuri

Hi Yuri

seems not, i.MX8QXP supports FlexSPI NOR flash boot, i.MX8M boot ROM

only supports :
• NAND flash
• SD/MMC

Best regards
igor
