    Hi Shaoxing,

    The snapshot you shared is for AM263x. Ethernet boot mode is supported on AM243x. Refer to section 4.4.5 in the AM64/AM243 TRM.

    Having said that the Ethernet based flashing is not supported in current version of SDK and there is no plan to support it. I have started internal thread on other possible optimizations but finding solution may take time. Let me update you based on how discussion goes. Please feel free to ping if I don't come back next week. 

    Regards,

    Prasad

    Hi Prasad,

    Firstly, The snapshot from the doc. "AM243x LaunchPadTm Development Kit User's Guide",  Not from the AM263x. 

    Secondly, Can you recommend some material or paths to the Ethernet boot? Thanks!
