mcuboot working on a custom board. on version 2.7.0 sdk, But the board is not found.

I am trying to get mcuboot working on a custom board. on version 2.7.0 sdk, But the board is not found.

I have simplified it to a minimal version like so (my folder can be found as attachment with_mcboot.zip):

using the example from zephyr/samples/sysbuild/with_mcuboot

github.com/.../with_mcuboot

I put my board folder in the folder of with_mcuboot.

When i build with_mcuboot using the vscode extention and choosing the nrf52840dk/nrf52840 the build compiles normally.
But when i choose the custom board here the nextgen_nrf52840 which the extention correctly identifies as an option.
But when i build it fails with this message:


* Executing task: nRF Connect: Generate config nextgen_nrf52840 for with_mcuboot

  • I had not tried to add the path to the board folder of the NCS extension setting.
    Having done that now it also didn't show up in custom boards.

    But moving my boards folder out of my project folder and into the west folder did make the board appear in the custom boards tab.

    This however did not build either.

    What did work was not using sysbuild and instead using "build system default" where it did find our board even if it was in the folder of the project that we tried to build.
