CCS/AM5718: board bring-up

Part Number: AM5718

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

We have a new AM5718 processor board, we are able to boot the processor using CCS and are able to execute Hello-world program.
However the board is not booting from an SD card and not able to see the console...
The SD card pins are connected to MMC1 and console pins are connected to UART3 pins.. the sysboot pins are configured to boot from SDcard and QSpi

Can you suggest, how do we go about debugging and booting the board.. how do we know the SD card and UART3 are working..

Is there way we can load the uboot, kernel using CCS, if yes, please provide the steps and gel file..

Is there way we can test UART3 using CCS,if yes, please provide the steps and gel file..

    You can probe MMC and UART pins with oscilloscope, to check if there will be any activity. You can also dump MMC and UART module registers, PRCM settings and pinmux registers, and verify these have the correct values. You can use CCS/JTAG to trace the code and check at which point exactly your flow stuck.

    You can also run diagnostic tests for the MMC (mmcsd_TEST), UART (uart_TEST) and EMIF/DDR (mem_TEST) modules, to verify your HW.
