Hi Andrey,

Thanks for your comment.

I am booting  from SD card. And the card with complete NXP image(uboot+kernel)
loads completely. When I replace uboot with Barebox, HDMI error happens.

The point is, before adding signed_hdmi_firmware into Barebox, I got the error
during kernel boot regarding no FW loaded.

But after that, kernel detects HDMI FW is loaded but cannot communicate with it.

Best,
Reyhaneh
