[Cubieboard1(A10) boot problem (with some tests)...]

Today me and tricolery solved the problem together. (We live near each other and we also bought the cubieboard2 together).

 

We followed the steps described here: https://linux-sunxi.org/U-Bootand managed to solve our problem. We did not change anything, we just downloaded and compiled using the cubieboard2.

 

If anyone here still have this problem and tried everything described here on this topic try these steps: 

 

git clone -b sunxi https://github.com/linux-sunxi/u-boot-sunxi.git

cd u-boot-sunxi

make cubieboard2_config

make 

dd if=u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1024 seek=8

reboot

 

Dont know if this u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin is the newest, but it is working now.

 

(I attached the u-boot here if anyone is interested)

Seems very easy to do. Thank you, Igor! I'll try to do it today at night.

Only one more question, can I compile u-boot using my own cubieboard 2 and dd my sdcard while running armbian or do I need to use my computer? I dont have linux installed on it, but I'll install if needed.

[Cubieboard1(A10) boot problem (with some tests)...]

How do I add this to U-boot? U-boot is that file called cubieboard2.bin (I know how to convert it to .fex if it is needed)? Sorry for the rookie question, I have some experience with linux, but I never seen this u-boot before. Thank you!

I have the same problem as everyone here. I have a cubieboard 2 and i'm using armbian 5.14 with legacy kernel. The u-boot provided on this thread did not work, the problem still occur. @Igor, could you please help me? I really liked Armbian and I don't really want to return to my old image. I can help with anything I can to solve this issue.
