Orange Pi Zero Plus spi nor flash - anyone know how to configure for booting
From reading through the forums I cobbled together what I thought might work for getting spi nor to boot, but it fails:
Activate the spi-jedec-nor overlay in /boot/armbianEnv.txt :
overlays=spi-jedec-nor
param_spinor_spi_bus=0
Then, after reboot, "cat /proc/mtd" should produce something like this :
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 00200000 00001000 "spi0.0" Here is where it fails - I just get the heading, with no mtd0: 00200000 00001000 "spi0.0".
Should I be

Here what I did with a recent ARMBIAN 5.64 user-built Ubuntu 18.04.1 to flash the mx25l1606e (2048 Kbytes) spi flash with u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin
Modify /boot/armbianEnv.txt
Add spi-jedec-nor to overlays
and
param_spinor_spi_bus=0
as example below
verbosity=1
logo=disabled
console=both
disp_mode=1920x1080p60
overlay_prefix=sun8i-h3
overlays=usbhost2 usbhost3 spi-jedec-n
