Hi, I have tried to run Armbian_20.05.1_Orangepizero_focal_current_5.4.43.img.xz but it doesn't work, see here: 

U-Boot SPL 2020.04-armbian (May 30 2020 - 18:49:32 +0200)

The Armbian_20.05.1_Orangepizero_buster_current_5.4.43.img.xz works without any problem.

Confirmed - Focal current on OPi0 is broken

 

Also confirmed that Buster current is booting normally

Bionic is working normal as well.

Oh boy, it is getting worse

OrangePi One Focal current is broken as well. I guess all sunxi devices on Focal are affected.

Does not make sense to me since Focal is not involved in the boot process at this time...

Some Focal images are broken

 

 

and I have no clue why atm. The other day were fine, yesterday rebuild ... fail. Changed build host, fail. Build manually, failed ...

The only hit I have so far is that I get many qemu unsupported syscall 403 when building Focal...


It is possible that its build host related. I didn't try on Ubuntu 20.04 yet.

Aight, the debug output so far looks way cleaner than on Bionic.... Unfortunatly without success. Same issue when built on Focal...dang it.

 

My next try was switching U-Boot to master but was not successful either...

 

 

So to get this straight: When issuing update initramfs on Focal it does something different than on Bionic.

U-Boot tools (including mkimage) are the same for Bionic with backports and Focal.

initramfs-tools is slightly different on Bionic (0.130ubuntu3.9) than on Focal (0.136ubuntu6)

Nailed it!

 

Basically what I did was plugging the sd card with the broken Focal image with an USB adapter into my OrangePi One Plus running Focal (dev branch but should not matter), chrooted into the sd card and ran update-initramfs -u. Thats it.

 

I guess I can have a beer now after five hours of try n error :P

Two things we tried and 2/2 builds were successful. Not sure if this is fix yet, but before I rebuild all focal images, need some tests.

- give more memory for initrd, rebuilding kernel https://github.com/armbian/build/tree/master/config/kernel with changed
+CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_COUNT=16
+CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE=8192


- creating initrd with
https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/lib/debootstrap.sh#L551
QEMU_BINARY="qemu-aarch64-static"

I was able to get the M1 focal image to boot with local build as well. So are you still having issues with automated builds or just this one?


Yes, it seems like a random problem :wacko: We wasted literally a day on this ... getting nowhere.:(

With this rather ugly workaround and no idea how and why it worked I could build multiple working images (boot confirmed):

  • OrangePi One Focal current  (Bionic build host)
  • OrangePi Zero Focal current  (Bionic build host)
  • OrangePi One Focal current  (Focal build host)

(The build host is just informational, does not make a difference (yet).)

 

If anybody has armhf based boards and got some spare time please use this workaround, build an image for your board with Focal as target OS and let us know if it boots.

 

In short I do the update-initramfs twice, once again after removing all the mounts and force both through the QEMU static emulator binary. Throws tons of "unsupported syscall" errors on Bionic but works.

If anybody has armhf based boards and got some spare time please use this workaround, build an image for your board with Focal as target OS and let us know if it boots.

 

 

I also experienced this issue on OrangePi boards this week.

 

I just built images (build host Focal) using the @Werner a2957ca8 commit for:

 

OrangePi PC

OrangePi PC+

Olimex Lime 2

 

All booted successfully.  All failed to boot with the images currently on the Armbian download page.

 

Thanks for your work on this.  Let me know if I can help.

Thanks!!!

We were not sure if hack actually holds and still not really since nobody can explain (yet) why this seems actually working.

Hello, is this issue fixed now ? I'm using OrangePi One Plus server, and three days ago I did apt -y upgrade. After that, it wont boot -- drops to initramfs ( UUID does not exist ).

I did a peek here, and tried to qemu chroot to sdcard from a Focal running VM, and issued " update-initramfs -u ", but that did not solve my problem -- still wont boot. 
12 hours ago I restored to a month old backup, and it booted fine ofc, but then I tried to upgrade again, as there is no more warning about broken Focal images, but sure enough, dropped to initramfs :(

Is there something else I can try ? :D

After kernel update to 20.05.3 my cubietruck stopped booting again. 20.05.1 images were broken, 20.05.1 was OK. Does anybody have similar issues?

I assume 20.05.2 was okay?

 

Did you retry with a fresh image on another sd card?
