I have been working on an urgent project with imx8mnano Variscite board and needed some help with integration of Mender.
What I have tried is the steps that are mentioned in the integration for imx8mn Variscite VAR-SOM-MX8M-NANO : NXP i.MX 8M Nano
I am using Yocto dunfell version and have the following local.conf.
However I have not been able to boot from the sdimg file(please see below). I have been trying for more than two weeks now but haven’t been able to boot my board.
My local.conf:
# This will make sure that our SPL + u-boot.img is embedded in the sdimg at
# a 1kb offset.
MENDER_IMAGE_BOOTLOADER_FILE = "u-boot-spl.bin"
MENDER_IMAGE_BOOTLOADER_BOOTSECTOR_OFFSET = "2"
# Remove the unneeded VFAT boot partition
IMAGE_BOOT_FILES = ""
MENDER_BOOT_PART_SIZE_MB = "0"
# Cleanup image types generated
IMAGE_FSTYPES_remove = "tar.gz ext4 wic.gz wic.bmap multiubi mender.bmap"
# Artifact name
MENDER_ARTIFACT_NAME = "enphase-mender-release-1"
# disable uefi
MENDER_FEATURES_ENABLE_append = " mender-uboot mender-image"
MENDER_FEATURES_DISABLE_append = " mender-grub mender-image-uefi"
# Appended fragment from meta-mender-community/meta-mender-variscite/templates
# SDCard Settings
MENDER_STORAGE_DEVICE_imx8mn-var-som = "/dev/mmcblk1"
MENDER_UBOOT_STORAGE_DEVICE_imx8mn-var-som = "1"
UBOOT_CONFIG_imx8mn-var-som = "sd"
MENDER_FEATURES_ENABLE_append = " mender-image-sd "
MENDER_STORAGE_TOTAL_SIZE_MB = "8192"
I have mounted the two roofs partition and can see Linux image is there. Besides from the sdimg file I was also able to dump the bootloader yet it doesn’t boot the board.
