SK-AM62: unable to boot from eMMC

Part Number: SK-AM62


I was trying to follow the steps from this link

https://dev.ti.com/tirex/explore/node?node=A__AHRrRyaBVyh3lIzvQ8a6tQ__linux_academy_am62x__XaWts8R__LATEST&search=am62x

to be able to boot my SK-AM62 EVM from eMMC and be able to create a first “Hello World” program.

At step 3.7.2.2. Flash Kernel, Device Tree and Root Filesystem to eMMC I’m stuck because the

fdisk /dev/mmcblk0 and mkfs.ext4 /dev/mmcblk0p1 are not working on my EVM. 

Also I was not able to copy the linux image tisdk-default-image-am62xx-evm.tar.xz from the host PC to the EVM. As a first step I was able to copy the image from the host PC to a USB stick but when inserting the USB stick to the SK-AM62 EVM I’m to able to reach it and copy from it. Not sure if this is possible…

I have seen a related forum that mentioned fix in works 2 months ago here ->https://e2e.ti.com/support/processors-group/processors/f/processors-forum/1204810/processor-sdk-am62x-am625-emmc-stablity-issue
Is there any update on this?

Can you or somebody from your team help me? My goal is to create a first hello world program and run it on the EVM
