Writing system image to eMMC memory


Prerequisites

  • A complete package with NXP UUU application - uuu-visionsom-6ull.zip
  • Built and extracted system image file called image.wic (from Yocto build tmp/deploy/images/starsom-cb-6ull/somlabs-image-starsom-cb-6ull.wic.bz2)
  • Built bootloader binary u-boot.imx (from Yocto build tmp/deploy/images/starsom-cb-6ull/u-boot.imx)
  • StarSOM-6ULL module with eMMC memory
  • StarCB-6ULL carrier board

Information

The uuu-visionsom-6ull.zip archive contains the compiled NXP uuu binary for Linux, the commands script and the bootloader supporting fastboot command. The script requires the image.wic and u-boot.imx files to be in the same directory.

Preparing

To program the memory of StarSOM-6ULL connected to the StarCB-6ULL:

  • connect the two RECOVERY pins with a jumper,
  • connect the USB1 port to the host PC,
  • power on the board
  • optionally connect the Console port to the host PC

Linux host PC

For image programing, use command:

sudo ./uuu vsom-6ull-cmds

and reset the board with the RES button

Windows host PC

For image programing, use command:

uuu.exe vsom-6ull-cmds

and reset the board with the RES button
