Building Serial_lte_modem sample fails for custom board

[I.gin]

Hello,
I want to build serial_lte_modem sample for a custom board based on nRF9151, but it fails with this error:

error: Aborting due to Kconfig warnings

I can build this sample for nRF9151DK board, and also I am able to build other samples (Hello_world and modem_shell) for my custom board successfully.
I'm using NRF SDK v2.9.1, using nrf extensions with vs code on macos.

The board definition was created by copying and modifying nrf9151DK definition and exists under application directory: boards/arm/board_name_folder

Could you tell me what's going wrong with this sample?

Hi,

How did you create your custom board?

I suggest that you test with the hello world sample first, to see if you get any errors with the simples possible sample.

Regards,

I copied the folder:

/opt/nordic/ncs/v2.9.1/zephyr/boards/nordic/nrf9151dk

into my application’s boards/arm directory.

I then renamed the files and updated all file contents to reflect the new filenames and board name accordingly.

As mentioned earlier, I can successfully build the hello_world and modem_shell samples using this custom board definition. But when trying to build the serial_lte_modem sample, I get these errors.

Ah, I missed that part.

Did you build for "ns" or? (With TF-M) A lot of cellular projects have a requirement on TF-M.

[I.gin]

I build for "ns".
But I tried to build with both options and got the same results.

Something is off in your custom board settings.
I suggest one of the following methods:

1. Follow Lesson 3 – Adding custom board support to create a custom board. Sometimes following a guide helps you get it right the second time trying.

2. Go over Kconfig errors and investigate why they er wrong. For example: 

Find out why SOC_FAMILY_NORDIC_NRF is not set. Find out how this is set in the DK boardfiles, and then find out if it is set similarly in your custom board files.
