Questions answered in these manuals
What is the purpose of the update_mbr tool?
It updates the master boot record files and partition download file lists based on the partition configuration file.
What does the merge_full_img tool do?
It merges boot0, boot1, MBR, and partition files into an IMG firmware package for small capacity NOR flash.
Why does wlan0 fail to start on some platforms?
The failure is usually due to hardware power configuration; VCC_WIFI and VCC_IO_WIFI must be supplied by the same rail.
What should I do when the wpa_supplicant configuration file is missing?
Place the config file at /etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf so it matches the path used by the startup script.
