I am not familiar with the Mediatek chips, but mt7621_stage_sram.bin
seems to be generic, independent of the boot medium.

https://u-boot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/board/mediatek/mt7621.html
shows the same procedure for generating the binary.

Then the last line says: "Burn the u-boot-mt7621.bin to the SPI-NOR or
NAND flash."

Yes, you need to provide mt7621_stage_sram.bin.

Please follow the instructions from doc/board/mediatek/mt7621.rst

I checkout u-boot tag: v2023.10

https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot/tree/v2023.10

run build:

```shell

Is there a step I'm missing that's causing this?
