Further into the installation the hard disks are not detected. This seems to be a bootloader issue though. Here is a table of machine + bootloader + Debian release which makes me believe this: rn104 + vendor U-Boot + Jessie | works fine rn104 + barebox + Jessie | fails to detect disks rn104 + vendor U-Boot + Stretch | fails to boot, no output on console rn104 + barebox + Stretch | fails to detect disks rn2120 + vendor U-Boot + Jessie | works fine rn2120 + barebox + Jessie | fails to detect disks rn2120 + vendor U-Boot + Stretch | fails to boot, no output on console rn2120 + barebox + Stretch | fails to detect disks So we have: - barebox somehow breaks detection of disks - vendor U-Boot cannot load Stretch installer (or needs a different setup than for jessie at least, I guess the culprit is that the initrd is much bigger) Best regards Uwe -- Pengutronix e.K. | Uwe Kleine-König | Industrial Linux Solutions | http://www.pengutronix.de/ |
