  • Hi,

    Please see Creating a firmware package with nrfutil, as well as the help text provided from nrfutil pkg generate --help.

    To generate a package for a bootloader, where the hex file of the bootloader is named bootloader.hex, the bootloader version is 1, the bootloader requires the SoftDevice with ID 0xFF, and the signing key is key.pem, use: nrfutil pkg generate --bootloader bootloader.hex --bootloader-version 1 --sd-req 0xFF --key-file key.pem.

    If you have any difficulties or see any issues, please describe what you do, what you think should happen, and what happens instead.

    Regards,
    Terje
