Hi,

I’m integrating mender with Yocto zeus for i.MX 8mm EVK. The build completed sucessfully without any errors but when I try to boot the device I get the following error.

```auto
Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0 
Run CMD11 1.8V switch
switch to partitions #0, OK
mmc1 is current device
Run CMD11 1.8V switch
**Unrecognized filesystem type**
## Error: "mender_setup" not defined
**Bad device specification 0x40480000 boot/Image**
## Error: "mender_try_to_recover" not defined
Booting from net ...

```

I follow the meta-mender-community integration for i.MX 8mm and modded it to support zeus. Full u-boot environmental variables are attached below for your reference.

Hi danie,

I’m currently working on MENDER zeus with IMX8M MINI EVK,  
I already asked this question, and there is a wip branch holding support for IMX8M MINI on zeus,  
Please check my post for details :

> [@Is there a support for meta-mender-imx on zeus?](https://hub.mender.io/t/is-there-a-support-for-meta-mender-imx-on-zeus/2669):
>
> Hello All, I’m working on a custom board based on IMX8M Mini, before NXP released the zeus branch, I was working on sumo branch and using meta-mender-core and meta-mender-imx for IMX8 support, and all of that based on Uboot2018. But now, I’m trying to work on zeus branch, but I cannot find support for meta-mender-imx in meta-mender-community zeus branch. Is it gonna be supported ? Thanks, Talel

Best Regards, Talel

Hi @danie does running the following help?

```
u-boot=> env default -a -f
u-boot=> saveenv
u-boot=> reset

```

I have a port to that platform in my fork here: [https://github.com/drewmoseley/meta-mender-community/tree/wip-zeus-imx-next](https://github.com/drewmoseley/meta-mender-community/tree/wip-zeus-imx-next)  
It’s untested since I don’t have the hardware but it is virtually identical to the imx8mnevk which I do have.

That port uses UEFI-GRUB as it’s bootloader integration point rather than U-Boot. If you want to give it a try please let me know how it goes.

Drew

Hi,

Thanks for the message, I’m not comfortable in using GRUB bootloader as I’m interested in HAB (High Assurance Boot) from NXP.

I tried your commands in u-boot console, yet no change. Same error is occuring:

```auto

In that case you will need to do a custom integration that uses [U-Boot rather than Grub](https://docs.mender.io/system-updates-yocto-project/board-integration/bootloader-support/u-boot).

You don’t have all of the Mender boot code integrated into your U-Boot environment.
