Power the kit off by disconnecting the USB Type C cable from the development host.
Set the target boot mode to the USB serial downloader mode by setting the boot switches as follows:
SW2.1 - 1
SW2.2 - 0
Power the kit on by connecting the USB Type C cable to the development host. Use the kit port labeled
USB1
.Check that the new USB device has appeared on your development host:
Code Block [psl@i7 ~]$ lsusb | grep -i nxp Bus 001 Device 025: ID 1fc9:0146 NXP Semiconductors
On the host, go to the Yocto images directory:
Code Block [psl@i7 ~]$ cd ~/5-15-5-DESKTOP/builddir/tmp/deploy/images/imx8mpnavq [psl@i7 imx8mmnavq]$ ls -1 ... imx-boot-imx8mpnavq-sd.bin-flash_evk imx-image-desktop-ros-imx8mpnavq.wic.zst uuu ...
The images above are:

utility (you could also use pre-builtuuu
image from https://github.com/NXPmicro/mfgtools/releases/latest, or build it from sources https://github.com/NXPmicro/mfgtools/tree/master);
Unpack the compressed image of the root filesystem:
Code Block [psl@i7 imx8mmnavq]$ zstd -d imx-image-desktop-ros-imx8mpnavq.wic.zst ...
Launch the
uuu
tool with appropriate script as a parameter for installing the bootable Linux image:Code Block [psl@i7 imx8mmnavq]$ sudo ./uuu -v -b sd_all imx-boot-imx8mpnavq-sd.bin-flash_evk imx-image-desktop-ros-imx8mpnavq.wic uuu (Universal Update Utility) for nxp imx chips -- libuuu_1.3.82-0-g9c56e46 Wait for Known USB Device Appear...
The
uuu
tool will proceed to install the Production Yocto image to the storage device (SD card) on the target board:Code Block uuu (Universal Update Utility) for nxp imx chips -- libuuu_1.3.74-2-g302da91 Success 1 Failure 0 ... 1:3 7/ 7 [Done ] FB: Done
When
uuu
has finished, the bootable Linux image has been installed to the on-module storage. Given proper setting of the boot switches, next power-on will boot the target board from the SD storage device.
