J721EXSOMXEVM: The emmc is burned using the fastboot tool. After booting up, the root file system cannot be mounted.

Tool/software:

step 1

With "fakeroot make_ext4fs -s -l 4096M -L linux rootfs.img targetfs/ " , pack the targetfs directory into a rootfs.img file.

step 2

With "fastboot flash rootfs rootfs_pylon.img -S 512M" , burn the rootfs.img file to eMMC.

step 3

When booting up, the following error log is found.

[ 2.449182] EXT4-fs (mmcblk0p1): warning: mounting unchecked fs, running e2fsck is recommended

Hi pingping,

Can you help me share the full boot logs what is the boot flow you are using is it SPL or SBL?

Hi, Sir

1, it is SPL mode.

2. The phenomenon is different every time after flashing.
