HYEOK Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Thank you for sharing the story. I think I also need to dive into the boot loader world during the winter holiday. Your post provided a lot of insights for newbies like me. I was lost because I hadn't known where to start to debug it. I appreciate that you didn't give up despite of the all challenges you encountered. I will also share my info in case I have found something meaningful. With crossed fingers, Hyeokjin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nihilowy Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Hello, I have similar problem with 5.10.160 armbian on orange pi 5 plus. Could You tell me how to download joshua bootloader? i just downloaded ubuntu-rockchip-1.33 package put cant see u-boot binary there. ( only any small rk3588 elf binary). Secondly , joshua ubuntu uses its own install method (sudo u-boot-install-mtd /dev/mtdblock0) so did You just typed sth like sudo dd if=/lib/u-boot-orangepi-rk3588/rkspi_loader.img of=/dev/mtdblock0 conv=notrunc sync regards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nihilowy Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 (edited) ok I've manged to extract these uboot dir /lib/u-boot-orangepi-rk3588/ from preinstalled img file. there are three files: idbloader.img rkspi_loader.img u-boot.itb I wonder if sudo dd if=/lib/u-boot-orangepi-rk3588/rkspi_loader.img of=/dev/mtdblock0 conv=notrunc sync will be sufficient on armbian. What about other files (idblocker and u-boot.itb) .DO I have to clean mtdblock0 before? Edited March 15 by nihilowy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nihilowy Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 ok I can confirm it works better . just typed "sudo dd if=rkspi_loader.img of=/dev/mtdblock0 conv=notrunc sync " waited about five minutes and rebooted. After 5 reboots it has always go on .. so probably it is better. Ah my os is armbian jammy 22 , I used file from ubuntu rockchip 23, nvme lexar I wonder if works on all version , and how it differs. but it is rather low level buissnes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
