Package: flash-kernel
Version: 3.73
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I am using an OLinuXino A20 LIME with arm.
boot.scr used to have the following content (I removed the initial
non-readable characters) which let boot the device without issues:
setenv mmcpart 1
setenv mmcroot /dev/mmcblk0p2 ro
setenv mmcrootfstype btrfs rootwait fixrtc
setenv mmcrootflags subvol=@
setenv console ttyS0,115200n8
setenv kernel_file vmlinuz-4.8.0-2-armmp-lpae
setenv initrd_file initrd.img-4.8.0-2-armmp-lpae
setenv fdtfile sun7i-a20-olinuxino-lime.dtb
setenv loadaddr 0x46000000
setenv initrd_addr 0x48000000
setenv fdtaddr 0x47000000
setenv initrd_high 0xffffffff
setenv fdt_high 0xffffffff
setenv loadkernel load mmc ${mmcdev}:${mmcpart} ${loadaddr}
${kernel_file}
setenv loadinitrd load mmc ${mmcdev}:${mmcpart} ${initrd_addr}
${initrd_file}\; setenv initrd_size \${filesize}
setenv loadfdt load mmc ${mmcdev}:${mmcpart} ${fdtaddr} /dtbs/${fdtfile}
setenv loadfiles run loadkernel\; run loadinitrd\; run loadfdt
setenv mmcargs setenv bootargs console=${console} root=${mmcroot}
rootfstype=${mmcrootfstype} rootflags=${mmcrootflags}
run loadfiles; run mmcargs; bootz ${loadaddr} ${initrd_addr}:
${initrd_size} ${fdtaddr}
<-- end of file
The new content of that file is:
# boot script for Allwinner SunXi-based devices
# Mainline u-boot v2014.10 introduces a new default environment and
# a new common bootcmd handling for all platforms, which is not fully
# compatible with the old-style environment used by u-boot-sunxi.
# This script therefore needs to check in which environment it
# is running and set some variables accordingly.
# On u-boot-sunxi, this script assumes that ${device} and ${partition}
# are set.
# The new-style environment predefines ${boot_targets}, the old-style
# environment does not.
if test -n "${boot_targets}"
then
echo "Mainline u-boot / new-style environment detected."
# Mainline u-boot v2014.10 uses ${devtype}, ${devnum} and
# ${bootpart} where u-boot-sunxi uses ${device} and ${partition}.
# ${distro_bootpart} replaced ${bootpart} in u-boot v2016.01.
if test -z "${device}"; then setenv device "${devtype}"; fi
if test -z "${partition}${distro_bootpart}"; then setenv partition
"${devnum}:${bootpart}"; fi
if test -z "${partition}"; then setenv partition "${devnum}:
${distro_bootpart}"; fi
else
echo "U-boot-sunxi / old-style environment detected."
# U-boot-sunxi does not predefine kernel_addr_r, fdt_addr_r and
# ramdisk_addr_r, so they have to be manually set. Use the values
# from mainline u-boot v2014.10, except for ramdisk_addr_r,
# which is set to 0x44300000 to allow for initrds larger than
# 13MB on u-boot-sunxi.
setenv kernel_addr_r 0x42000000
setenv fdt_addr_r 0x43000000
setenv ramdisk_addr_r 0x44300000
fi
if test -n "${console}"; then
setenv bootargs "${bootargs} console=${console}"
fi
setenv bootargs ${bootargs} quiet
image_locations='/boot/ /'
if test -z "${fk_kvers}"; then
setenv fk_kvers '4.8.0-2-armmp-lpae'
fi
if test -n "${fdtfile}"; then
setenv fdtpath dtbs/${fk_kvers}/${fdtfile}
else
setenv fdtpath dtb-${fk_kvers}
fi
for pathprefix in ${image_locations}
do
if test -e ${device} ${partition} ${pathprefix}vmlinuz-${fk_kvers}
then
load ${device} ${partition} ${kernel_addr_r}
${pathprefix}vmlinuz-${fk_kvers} \
&& load ${device} ${partition} ${fdt_addr_r} ${pathprefix}${fdtpath}
\
&& load ${device} ${partition} ${ramdisk_addr_r}
${pathprefix}initrd.img-${fk_kvers} \
&& echo "Booting Debian ${fk_kvers} from ${device} ${partition}..."
\
&& bootz ${kernel_addr_r} ${ramdisk_addr_r}:${filesize}
${fdt_addr_r}
fi
done
<- end of file
Which does not allow the device to boot.
None of the variables in that script is set in the current environment.
As work-around I am currently copying a saved version of the former file
content to boot.scr.
