System firmware unfortunately does not ship with such systems and has to
share the storage device with the operating system.

Assuming you have another OpenBSD install or something that can extract
the package see

"Install on systems without a supported miniroot" from
https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/armv7/INSTALL.armv7

Install the u-boot-arm package and run

dd if=miniroot-cubie-66.fs of=/dev/rsdXc
dd if=/usr/local/share/u-boot/A20-OLinuXino-Lime2/u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin \
    of=/dev/sdXc bs=1024 seek=8

where sdX is the device the sd card shows up as.

alternatively there is also a 'A20-OLinuXino-Lime2-eMMC' target built.
