Hi
Thanks for the reply 
Why do you think it needs a custom board integration for U-Boot? Mender should have been integrated for this board running Zeus according to:
https://hub.mender.io/t/variscite-var-som-mx8m-mini-nxp-i-mx-8m-mini/1918
and this board uses U-boot, so I am assuming it should work without customization…but in case customization is needed, can you please point me in the right direction?
When I build u-boot, I was receiving this Warning message when applying patches:
WARNING: u-boot-variscite-1.0-r0 do_patch: Fuzz detected:
Applying patch 0003-Integration-of-Mender-boot-code-into-U-Boot.patch
patching file include/env_default.h
Hunk #1 succeeded at 9 with fuzz 2.
could this be the cause?
The reason why I want u-boot to load the kernel is because firstly it takes forever to boot (around 2 minutes to see the boo2qt demo), and secondly there is a problem with executing reboot commands for some reason. When I was trying the check the mender integration list, the board freezes after issuing a reboot command…something is not right there.
