I had taken the binman configuration from imx8mq_cm_defconfig and adapted it for my board (kontron-pitx-imx8m). I had copied the flash.bin image to my SD card and am of the opinion that this had started afterwards with the current u-boot. Unfortunately I can test it only next week again, because I currently have no device at hand. I must confess that I do not yet fully understand how binman works. I'll get back to you next week. -- Heiko
