As I guess i.MX8ULP processor has 2 USB ports, one of this is used for USB-C connector on the baseboard, The second one is connected to USB hub to make 2 USB host ports on the board.
I tried to connect USB flash drive into both host ports, but the behaviour of the system is quite stange for me: USB power is attachech for a 1-2 seconds and then disappear. Linux doesn't indicate something into a core log at all (I monitored that by "dmesg"). I wonder if It is lack of some drivers or hardware issue? I tried on two boards and two Linux images with the same results.
