It is not so easy to build firmware and find any information about it, because it's my first time to handle intel SoC board. Unfortunately, I cannot access your link. I can see just "500 Internal error" in any pages on https://3mdeb.com/, including your link. Anyway, Thanks a lot and welcome further information.
