Intel Gordon Ridge Apollo Lake

How to boot into ABL (ABL prompt)? After flashing linux (Yocto Build) the board does an auto-boot. But right now, trying some development work with it, need to login to ABL prompt. Tried setting DIP switch 1 to off and boot. But not working. Please help.

Hi Carlos_A

I've read the document, but it does'nt say anything about working with ABL moreover the document does'nt contain a section 3.7.

I've crossed the first hurdle though, but right now having some issues with flashing images from SD-card specifically getting this error

Could you help on this?

Hi Carlos_A

Thanks for the document. But this document does'nt describe any error codes. The log, that I've posted above has some error codes explanation to those would help me debug.

Could you help in understanding the error codes?
