3.7 Using cfimager Utility to Flash SD/MMC Card

cfimager.exe is a host PC tool used to flash boot images (xldr.nb0, eboot.nb0, nk.nb0) and

create a FAT partition on SD/MMC cards for i.MX51. Users can avoid programming the

card on the device. The tool for i.MX51 can only flash *.nb0 files. A card reader on the PC is

required. The utility, accompanied by a readme file, is provided under

<%WINCEROOT%>\SUPPORT\TOOL\COMMON\CFIMAGER. Any data on the card may

be lost by flashing it with cfimager. Follow these steps to flash the card:

 To flash the XLDR, use the following command in a build window: cfimager -f

xldr.nb0 -d -imx51

 To flash the bootloader, use the following command: cfimager -f eboot.nb0 -d

-imx51

 To flash the OS image, use the following command: cfimager -f nk.nb0 -d

reader drive letter without colon> -imx51 Flashing a debug nk.nb0 image does not

work because it is too big.

 To add the FAT partition, add -a option to any of the above command lines. When

creating a FAT partition, any previous data in any existing FAT partition is erased.
