Hi.
I just go an MCIMX7SABRE board and it now trying to start barebox from
the external SD card, which I guess should be possible right?
I have taken barebox 2020.07.0 and copied the imx_v7_defconfig and
deselected all boards except the "NXP i.MX7 SabreSD board"
After compilation i copy the image using:
sudo dd if=barebox-freescale-mx7-sabresd.img of=/dev/sdb bs=1024 skip=1 seek=1
sync
But still no boot screen for that either. :/
Shouldn't this work out of the box??
