IWR6843AOP: 3DPC Backup image @META IMAGE 4 slot overwrites SBL image utility

Part Number: IWR6843AOP
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH,

Hi everyone:

I'm trying to implement a second stage bootloader SBL on an 3D People Counting based project. The idea is to be able updating People Counting image through the UART.

I was reading and testing some information present in the documentation /mmwave_sdk_03_06_00_00-LTS/packages/ti/utils/sbl/docs/SBL_design.pdf

On the 4.10 Running the application section indicates to specifically flash (Uniflash Tool) sbl image @ 1st Meta Image slot and backup image @ 4th slot. I'm not sure I do understand how this works.

The problem occurs when I set IWR6843AOP in run mode. I was expecting the bootloader to start and after 90 ticks the backup image to run, but the backup images seem to overwrite the bootloader and start directly.

Most likely I'm missing something regarding the external flash memory configuration or so.  

Thanks in advance.
