Hello,

I’m sorry to hear you’re experiencing boot issues with your Verdin iMX8MP System on Module (SOM). Let’s go through some steps that might help resolve the problem:

1. Power Supply Check: Ensure that your power supply is stable and meets the required specifications for the Verdin Development Board. An inadequate power supply can often lead to boot failures.

2. Connection Verification: Double-check all connections between the Verdin iMX8MP SOM and the carrier board. Make sure the SOM is properly seated in the connector and that all necessary cables are securely attached.

3. Toradex Easy Installer: The Verdin iMX8MP SOM comes with the Toradex Easy Installer pre-installed. If the board does not boot, try re-flashing the module using the Toradex Easy Installer. Connect the board to a host computer and follow the instructions provided in the Toradex Easy Installer guide.

4. Serial Console Output: Connect to the serial console to observe the boot process. This can provide valuable information about where the boot process is failing. Look for any error messages or unusual behavior in the console output.

5. Boot Configuration: Verify the boot configuration settings. Ensure that the correct boot device is selected and that any necessary boot parameters are correctly configured.

6. Hardware Inspection: Inspect the hardware for any visible damage or defects. If possible, test the SOM on a different carrier board to rule out issues with the board itself.

7. Software Updates: Make sure you are using the latest software and firmware versions. Check for any updates or patches that might address known issues.

By following these steps, you should be able to diagnose and potentially resolve the boot issues with your Verdin iMX8MP SOM. If you need further assistance, reviewing the Verdin iMX8M Plus datasheet and errata documents might provide additional insights.

I hope this helps, and I wish you success in resolving the issue.

Best regards,

I’m trying to get a HMP application running on our Verdin IMX8M Plus SoM. I’m following the instructions as outlined here: Heterogeneous Multi-core Processing (HMP) Documentation Overview | Toradex Developer Center.

If I run the application from Uboot (run m4boot) all seems well, I see “hello world” p…

Help Needed with Verdin iMX8M Plus - Boot Issues After Custom Kernel Compilation

Hey guys… I have been working with the Verdin iMX8M Plus module on the Dahlia carrier board for a project, and I’m facing an issue after compiling a custom Linux kernel. I followed the official Toradex documentation for building the kernel from source, and everything seemed to go smoothly during the compilation process. However, when I try to boot the module with the new kernel, it gets stuck at the “Starting kernel …” message and doesn’t proceed further. I’ve checked the kernel config,…
