  • The steps to re-create SD card are as follows:
    1:Direct use of the file on IPNC RDK 3.9.1, with the following command:

    the re-create sd card also not work
  • There is switch for nand boot and sd card boot hope you have toggled switch for sd card boot.

  • The switch is set to sd card boot. I suspect DDR is a problem. How to determine whether DDR works properly?

  •  We purchased the TMDSCSK388-CSKCC-BNDL in ti-store on December 16,2017. order no: 1682548. Can't work all the time.

    Contacted ti-china, they said that it was necessary for e2e's engineers to decide what was the problem?

    Hope e2e's engineer will reply as soon as possible.

    Thanks & Regards,
