This article will teach you how to restore the image under UBOOT mode when your Yocto is not working.

Tools you need before restoring the image to the eMMC:

  • A Windows 10 host O/S on a PC (The virtual machine is not suggested to be used)
  • USB cable to connect between the host PC and EBOX-IMX8MM. (Ex: USB to micro USB)
  • Cable for the console to connect between the host PC and the EBOX-IMX8MM. (Ex: USB to RS-232)

Write the image to the eMMC on the EBOX-IMX8MM.

This section will introduce how to write the image to the eMMC on the EBOX-IMX8MM step by step.

  • Turn on the host PC and unzip the image file in it.
  • Connect the host PC and the EBOX-IMX8MM via console cable. (In this case, the console function on the ICOP’s device is on COM2.)
  • Connect the USB to micro USB to the host PC, but not connect to EBOX-IMX8MM.
  • Open the PUTTY on the host PC and set the Serial line at the correct location. You could find the location under device manager.

  •  Open a terminal on the host PC and access the location you’ve put the image file and input

“uuu.exe uuu.auto” , and you will see “Wait for known USB Device Appear”.

  •  Go back to putty, and connect the micro USB to EBOX-IMX8MM to boot it up, and press any key while booting up to access the UBOOT mode and type the command

“fastboot usb0”
