Hi, Jean-Michel Some platforms which using Samsung exynos SoC, we write u-boot related bin files in boot partitions(in my case boot partition 1) to boot on eMMC. Some platforms which using Qualcomm SoC, written at logical address 0(User Data Area) and they use a-boot not u-boot. BTW, rpmb partition is not wide use now. As i know, some Intel platforms have use rpmb partition.
