Firfly-rk3399 have not been booting up reasent images from Armbian


Recommended Posts

Posted

Have been struggling to install Armbian on Firefly rk3399 - did try many images from armbian.com/firefly-rk3399 with no luck at all.   Then I did stumble on a Arbmian image on a USB stick from 5 of January  this year  Armbian_19.11.7_Firefly-rk3399_bionic_legacy_4.4.208_desktop.img  which did work to my

surprise.   Thought it had something to do with u-boot and partitions.    I did always stop on starting kernel ... with some prior errors.    

 

Will try to install newer images for the sake of curiosity :-)

 

Btw. have donated to the Armbian project twice - not so much, but some amount - as people should do.    

 

This is the serial output from the successful starting of Armbian_19.11.17 image.   Firefly seems to be completely focused on android and the android partition method.

Did you also try the nightly images?
You can also check in the archive for the latest working image. I don't know/think anyone has a board to test the images.
https://archive.armbian.com/firefly-rk3399/archive/

 

Actually i did not try the nightly images.   Just the those marked stable.    They did all stop in the the - starting kernel process.... with some prior errors.     My guess is that it is some issues with the connection between u-boot and the /boot directory in Armbian.

Can you post the serial console output from the failed boot rather than the successful one? ;-)

 

The testing image is Armbian_20.08.1_Firefly-rk3399_focal_current_5.8.6_desktop.img.xz

This might be the actual case - a missing bl30.bin and bl32.bin - Think it is almost first in the boot process.

-  Neither of those work dating from 8 of June the older one

Armbian_20.05.2_Firefly-rk3399_buster_current_5.4.43_desktop.img.xz and Armbian_20.05.7_Firefly-rk3399_focal_current_5.4.49.img.xz

 

-  The same error messages from u-boot

Judging by the log, u-boot works fine and passes control to the kernel. The DTB setting may be incorrect.

Try before writing the Armbian image to the SD card, perform a full SD card cleanup. Most likely, you have previously written a system with GPT to the SD card and its "remnants" (a backup copy at the end of the Sd card) prevent it from starting.

Still struggling to get a newer version of Armbian.   Did try wipefs, blockthiscard, gui tools, dos partiotions, no partiotions, dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk1 (and the card) - just about everything to get the cards clean.   Now there is just one warning "Warning: Bad CRC, using default environment".   Did stop u-boot and >  saveenv - reset with image  Armbian_20.05.2_Firefly-rk3399_buster_current_5.4.43_desktop.img.xz -

 

The image from January this year works - kernel 4.4.

 

So this is interesting -

One point to notice.

-  Did the mistake of updating the installation card before the installation to emmc and that did not work.   The upgrade should be done from emmc only.

1. Enable full log mode, most likely there are messages about system startup and there may be answers why there is no startup.

2. Check which DTB is used and try other DTBS from the image. You may be using the default DTB mode that is set in u-boot. this DTB may not work with your model.

Sorry, but I have limited experianse in using u-boot commands.  

 

What would be the correct way of starting the kernel with the correct dtb files from /dev/mmcblk1p1 in the /boot directory?

I came in part way, forgive me if this is incorrect advice.  But there are some generalized instructions here which have been updated somewhat recently, maybe helpful for you?

-  Did the mistake of updating the installation card before the installation to emmc and that did not work.   The upgrade should be done from emmc only.

To be certain....

Do I understand correctly that it works for you if you transfer the older Armbian (v19.11.7) from SD to eMMC (probably by the means of nand-sata-install) and then run the upgrade?

Does the system boot with eMMC after the upgrade?

If it boots... does it recognise the SD card that you insert while the system is running (booted with eMMC)?

Yes,  this is correct but it just recognizance the SD card as a medium not as a booting. 

If I update the SD card with v19.11.7 and and install it with armbian-config to emmc  it will not boot again.  

If I install the v19.11.7 before doing apt update; apt upgrade update to the emmc and then it will bee a fully functional installation

I do have a a SD image from 2017 that I can always boot up from though.

There are always unallocated partitions left after emmc cleaning with blockthiscard /dev/mmcblk1rmp (unknown 4.2M)and /dev/mmcblkboot0 (read only 4.2M).

It is like the vendor "firefly" is locking the hardware from the software (image) upgrade(?).

 

and use ./upgrade_tool or rkdeveloptool to upload through usb otg -

Btw. is there any way to open up the .img files from those partitions?     Is the Vendor in control here?  

Did - dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk1 bs=4096 status=progress - the /dev/mmcblk1boot0 and /dev/mmcblk1rpmb are still there.

- When booting from Armbian_20.05.2_Firefly-rk3399_buster_current_5.4.43_desktop - u-boot gives this message -

First is how firefly wants to have the partition table - Android stile - Rockchip

Then there is the "empty" emmc with the two boot partitions left.

Something similar to above commands might be the right way to bring it up coorectly.

 

Might try something similar to those commands to try to get to the images on the sd card.

How is it possible to obtain the correct addresses corresponding to those?

The log clearly says that the kernel started, enable full log output mode (verbose=). And completely erase the eMMC with the dd command. Then all settings will be used only from the SD card.

Those partitions do always remain on the emmc;

/dev/mmcblk1boot0

/dev/mmcblk1rpmb - (Replay Protected Memory Block) "information is always available to the authorized users" .   This is probably

they key of the vendors (manufacturers) ultimate power over the product.  

 

Some well-known use cases include software version authentication - This might be the case.

 

"Secured: write protect can be enabled and disabled only for those who are authorized to
use the RPMB."

 

Boot partitions can be permanent, secured or power-on write protected.

 

So the takeaway from this thread is probably this information - that the newer armbian images for firefly-rk3399 are probably lacking access through the mechanism of Replay Protected Memory Block on the emmc drive.  

 

- My rockpro64 does not have any /dev/mmcblk1rpmb partition - just read only /dev/mmcblk2boot0 - which I have not studied yet.

How do i enable full log output mode?

balbes150, thank you for your effort.

There is no more output from  u-boot when using; setenv extraargs debug, setenv extraargs "debug ignore_loglevel" and setenv extraargs "debug initcall_debug"

Armbian does not use those hardware eMMC partitions.

 

Can you try to boot this image (https://users.armbian.com/piter75/Armbian_20.11.0-trunk_Firefly-rk3399_buster_current_5.9.9_minimal.img.xz) with SD and provide console logs - it should be more verbose that the default one.
