Moved from MCUs forum: STM32MP13 is an MPU - not an MCU.
Hello Everyone,
I hope you’re doing well. I’m encountering a problem when trying to boot Linux directly instead of U-Boot on our STM32MP135F-DK board. Below is a summary of what I’ve done and the error I see:
1. Procedure followed
Built a new FIP binary and tf-a with the recommended changes and flags:
-> fiptool update --fw-config stm32mp135f-dk-fw-config.dtb --hw-config stm32mp135f-dk.dtb --nt-fw Image fip-stm32mp135f-dk-optee-sdcard.binModified the TSV in the starter package to replace u-boot.bin with my Linux image and updated the FIP entries as follows:

Any guidance on which steps to double-check would be greatly appreciated.
you will find the tf-a and the fip created attached here
Thank you in advance for your help
