I've attached a Banana Pi M1 using a USB-TTL serial cable, and am following the instructions at pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/armv7/INSTALL.armv7
Using the below steps I have arrived at the OpenBSD installer, but am asking for feedback: 1) At one step, dd to sd card's rsd0c returns "Invalid argument", but sd0c works 2) Should the (missing) step to cp u-boot.img be added to the install doc for AllWinner SoCs? 3) No disks available to installer; is the failure to enable sdmmc0 expected at this time? What can I do here? Thanks for the hard work. I'm excited to see this platform supported. -lg ##### # working directory user@i386:~ $ mkdir bpi user@i386:~ $ cd bpi # no bananapi m1 miniroot exists, so fetch (any?) existing miniroot user@i386:~/bpi $ wget http://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/ar mv7/miniroot-beagle-60.fs # write miniroot to sd card user@i386:~/bpi $ doas dd if=miniroot-beagle-60.fs of=/dev/rsd0c bs=1m # mount msdos partition from sd card user@i386:~/bpi $ doas mount /dev/sd0i /mnt user@i386:~/bpi $ ls /mnt total 1256 -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 54648 Nov 25 04:02 MLO drwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 4096 Nov 25 04:02 efi -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 64633 Nov 25 04:02 omap3-beagle-xm-ab.dtb -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 64602 Nov 25 04:02 omap3-beagle-xm.dtb -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 64752 Nov 25 04:02 omap3-beagle.dtb -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 381584 Nov 25 04:02 u-boot.img # no dtb package exists for i386, fetch and unpack from arm branch user@i386:~/bpi $ wget http://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/pa ckages/arm/dtb-4.8.tgz user@i386:~/bpi $ tar zxvf dtb-4.8.tgz user@i386:~/bpi $ doas cp share/dtb/arm/sun7i-a20-bananapi.dtb /mnt # remove beagle dtbs user@i386:~/bpi $ doas rm /mnt/omap3* # uboot package exists for i386 user@i386:~/bpi $ doas pkg_add u-boot user@i386:~/bpi $ ls -l /usr/local/share/u-boot/Bananapi/ total 6592 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root bin 1994552 Nov 24 15:49 u-boot -rw-r--r-- 1 root bin 491811 Nov 24 15:49 u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin -rw-r--r-- 1 root bin 458979 Nov 24 15:49 u-boot.bin -rw-r--r-- 1 root bin 459043 Nov 24 15:49 u-boot.img # this step is missing from INSTALL.armv7?
