MediaTek Genio 1200

Yocto
1

Hello,

The GENIO 1200 EVK board boots with the pre-installed Android image, but I would like to install Yocto instead. I built your Yocto 24.1 version successfully, but when I tried to flash it, I encountered an error. How can I resolve this issue?

  1. Which version of genio-tools are you using?
  2. Could you provide all the file list in the tmp/deploy/XXXXX image folder?
    I saw a error message “AttributeError: module ‘importlib.resources’ has no attribute ‘files’” Not sure if any file is missing.
  3. Please upgrade your python version. I guess it is better using something newer than python 3.9. I remembered I’ve read somewhere in the online manual but I’m not sure which version is correct. At least I’m using python 3.13.0

Well. return resources.files(‘aiot_bootrom’) / bin_name
AttributeError: module ‘importlib.resources’ has no attribute ‘files’
It seems you didn’t install aiot_bootrom or genio_bootrom.

Please run pip install this module.

Hi @HAKAN_AYDIN ,

Based on the log, it seems that you are running Genio Tools with Python 3.8. This error is caused by different versions of Python having interface changes on importlib module.

Could you install Python 3.9 or Python 3.12 and see if this problem is fixed? Note that you can have mutiple versions of Python installed, but you’ll need to make sure that you run genio-flash on the correct Python version environment.

I think it was related to the Python version. The issue is resolved. Thank you for your help.
