make sd card image failed

[CAlex]

Hi

I put the u-boot-spl in -P 2A and bin-image.bin in FAT32(sdfsys/*) trying to get a baremetal system.

And sudo python3 ./make_sd_image.py failed.

Error:

Hi

I have tried out the SD Files that you shared and there was no error seen.

The only changes i made was created a few dummy files in the rootfs folder and run the command.

The below is the result I got.

What python version that you are using? The version I am using is 3.8.10

Regards

Hi

It returns the same error message,

I'll try to use the same python version as you did.

[CAlex]

Hi 

I can't get the python3.8 through apt.

Is there other ways to get that version?

Hi

Could you share with me the files in your "BM_bin/*" folder?

Or you could try the one in the sd card that you shared.
