Built-in u-boot requires SPL (secondary program loader) to be present on the SD-card regardless of the image type which will be loaded.
SPL is generated by the u-boot-mx6cuboxi package which is preselected by the target device and can be found in bin/u-boot-mx6cuboxi directory.
Flashing the SPL:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1M count=4
dd if=bin/targets/imx6/generic/u-boot-mx6cuboxi/SPL of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1K seek=1
Preparing the firmware on the SD-card:
(echo o; echo n; echo p; echo 1; echo ''; echo ''; echo w) | fdisk /dev/mmcblk0
mkfs.ext4 /dev/mmcblk0p1
mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt
tar -xzf bin/targets/imx6/generic/openwrt-imx6-device-cubox-i-rootfs.tar.gz -C /mnt/
mkdir -p /mnt/boot
cp bin/targets/imx6/generic/{*-uImage,*.dtb,*.scr} /mnt/boot/
Generated u-boot.img needs to be placed on the first partition:
cp bin/targets/imx6/generic/u-boot-mx6cuboxi/u-boot.img /mnt/
To boot from the SD card:
Boot script which sets mmc/dtb parameters and boots the board is automatically sourced.
If this does not work for any reason:
mmc dev 0; load mmc 0:1 $scriptaddr boot/boot.scr; source $scriptaddr
Currently imx6dl-cubox-i.dtb (Dual Lite) and imx6q-cubox-i.dtb (Quad) device trees are available.
Tested on i4Pro, MMC, USB (+ HiD), HDMI and ethernet ports are working.
Wireless and bluetooth are broken ATM. According to SolidRun forums, BCM4329/BCM4330 firmware is used which works fine on older kernels.

When this target got updated to 4.14, this patch got removed to
re-evaluate if it was still needed.
Extensive testing now shows this issue is still present.
Let's re-add the patch to fix it for now.
As the uart bus is very low bandwidth .. performance impact is negligible.
Boot log:
[ 22.513051] imx-uart 2020000.serial: DMA transaction error.
[ 22.522721] imx-uart 2020000.serial: DMA transaction error.
As a sidenote:
The patch mentiones an issue with RS485, but the bootlog
errors above were recorded with the uart ports in standard RS232 mode.

The image builder does not bundle sub-directories within $(KERNEL_BUILD_DIR),
therfore the intermediate "ventana-uImage.boot" directory is not shipped,
leading to failures with "make image" later on.
To circumvent the issue, store the intermediate boot files as tar archive
instead of putting them into a directory to ensure that they end up in the
final image builder tarball. Fixes FS#102

Some Ventana boards have a Marvell sky2 GigE controller as eth1 however
assigning the mac address through device-tree is difficult because the

On Ventana boards the Gateworks System Controller is the only device on I2C1
(/dev/i2c-0) and it can NAK transfers if it is busy in an ADC loop. Because
this is a multi-function device with several slave addresses it is best to
add retries at the controller level instead of within each slave driver. This
adds a patch that adds 3 retries for i2c transactions only for Ventana boards
and only for I2C1

Replace the ventana ubi images from a single rootfs volume containing the
rootfs as well as kernel+dtbs in the boot/ subdir to a multi-volume ubi
containing kernel+dtbs+bootscript in 'root' ubifs volume, rootfs in 'rootfs'
squasfs volume, and rootfs_data an empty ubifs volume.
At the same time move ventana image creation over to using the new
TARGET_DEVICE syntax as a cleanup.
Additionally removed FIT image creation as it is recommended that this be
done manually to produce signed FIT images if needed.
Note that a bootscript is needed for Ventana to change its default mtdparts
to rename the 2nd partition from 'rootfs' to 'ubi'. This is because there
are patches in OpenWrt kernels that try to auto-attach and auto-mount and these
get in the way if the mtd partition is named 'rootfs'.
