ManoftheSea Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 I was able to boot from a SATA disk that was manually setup with a GPT-formatted table and a debootstrap'ed debian arm64 kernel. The GPT partitions included: 1. BIOS from sector 34-2047, no filesystem 2. ESP from 2048-409599 (which u-boot calls bootable even if the flag isn't set), vfat filesystem 3. XBOOTLDR from 409600-819199 with bootable flag set (0x4), ext4 FS without journal 4. linux swap 5. ARM64 root (gdisk type 8305) with bit 60 set (read-only), ext4 without journal 6. linux /var (gdisk type 8310), ext4, with /srv/ and /home/ bind-mounted from /var/local/ The bootscripts/extlinux configuration live in /boot, onto which is mounted partition 3 (XBOOTLDR) next to the actual kernel/initramdisk. It is necessary to mark this partition bootable in gdisk to have the u-boot distro-boot search it for extlinux/boot.scr. While the espressobin doesn't require u-boot flashed on the boot media, this disk partition scheme would allow rockchip64 systems to boot if the BIOS partition is extended to somewhere around sector 32767 (as rockchip needs code at sector 64 and maybe 16384 and 24576). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliotts tech Level2 Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 I am trying to get yrzr opnsense image to boot on my Espressobinv7 with a sata ssd plugged in, I am having trouble with it. Been able to boot the image off an mmc sd card without any issues. But when trying to boot off the ssd it appears to boot halfway but then stop when trying to boot the GEOM managed disk which doesn't show up. I've found out that my issue may be related that i am booting off u-boot Armbian 2022.04 and that appears to only have 'scsi' option but not 'sata' ? is this correct? Is there a way i can get existing current u-boot Armbian 2022.04 image to function with 'sata' ? Or is there any way i can force the ssd to be detected when trying to boot via 'scsi'? Am I doing this all wrong? any insight will be much appreciated. Output is below.

ManoftheSea Posted September 27, 2023 Author Share Posted September 27, 2023 As far as I can tell, you've booted. OPNsense is running and unable to find the disk. I don't know anything about BSDs, or what driver you might need to find the SATA device on the espressobin. ahci0: <AHCI SATA controller> mem 0xe0000-0xe0177 irq 27 on simplebus1 This looks like it detected the controller. So yeah, I don't know why it didn't find the disk, but the problem appears to me to be the domain of freebsd, not of the bootloader firmware. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
