Pinecube: ERROR: FDT image overlaps OS image

[Zzzz]

Pinecube fails to boot with Armbian_23.5.0-trunk.140_Pinecube_bookworm_edge_6.2.13.img .

 

In the boot log is this line:

Quote

ERROR: FDT image overlaps OS image (OS=0x41000000..0x418750d0)

 

So I tried to modify `fdt_addr_r` env variable and were able to succesfully boot with theese commands executed in u-boot console:

 

Quote

env set fdt_addr_r 0x41900000
boot

 

So adding following line to /boot/armbianEnv.txt on sdcard can fix booting permanently:

Quote

fdt_addr_r=0x41900000

Hi,

 

can you share  armbianmonitor -u after successful boot?

 

Cheers

Sorry to bring this back up but I'm having exact same issue on latest releases.

I'm able to boot an older 21.05.1 release for the PineCube but the 25.5.0-trunk.87 and 25.5.0-trunk.444 have the same issue. Upgrading the 21.05.1 via apt update && apt upgrade broke it once again with the same overlap issue.
