UPDATE:
when I ran below command it worked to netboot successfully:
$ mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -d initramfs-icmm.ext4.gz uRamdisk
(then i used uRamdisk file with bootz)
this just add uboot header.(if im not mistaken)
please enlighten me why the output of agl build did not work out of the bux?
or sth. is wrong with my way of using it.
kind regards
Vahid

I thought maybe init ram disk image is not ready for imx yet. Now that you're saying it should work, I'll investigate further to find problem.Another question is: when NBD push the ext4 rootfs, supposed everything working, how can we debug? I mean with the nfs we actually had a folder on our host and we could install and debug app with at or.... , But now what could we do with just a *.ext4 that NBD is serving to Target ?Thank you for your supportVahidOn Tue, Oct 1, 2019, 00:26 Stephane Desneux <stephane.desneux@xxxxxxx> wrote:Exactly.
And even if there's no TFTP (or no ethernet driver in uboot), it's still
possible to cheat: for example, you can build with agl-netboot feature and
you'll get a kernel image, a dtb, an initramfs and a rootfs. You can put
everything but the rootfs on a sdcard and boot from it 'as usual' then let the
initramfs mount the rootfs through NBD: set the nbd.xxx variables accordingly in
the kernel command line and don't forget to serve your rootfs ext4 file with a
nbd server).
Please keep us posted on your progress: I'm sure many people would be interested
with this netboot feature :)
