Package: flash-kernel Version: 3.104 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
I could not install a Debian Bullseye that was able to boot on my Olimex A64-Olinuxino-eMMC -A64-OLinuXino-1Ge16GW version - with the nightly built SD card images. Nothing was happening after the message "Starting kernel". So I followed the mitigation process proposed here: https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebianOn/Allwinner#Installing_on_systems_that_are_not_supported_out_of_the_box As the nightly built DTB was giving the same result - nothing after 'starting kernel', I compiled a DTB from the DTS found in the device tree git repo. It dit not work better. While I was trying to have a bootable system from the nightly built SD card images, I had noticed that a system install with Olimex Teres images was nearly woking: it was able to boot, but hanged 30 seconds after the boot. So I have used the Olimex Teres DTS. I have removed the parts relating to hardware not present on a64-Olinuxino-eMMc. The system can boot. It complains about vcc-p* not found. When I tried to add the parts related to vcc-p* from the a64-Olinuxino-eMMc DTS, the system could not boot anymore (again, nothing after 'Starting kernel'). -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing-security APT policy: (500, 'testing-security'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: arm64 (aarch64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-6-arm64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_CRAP Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages flash-kernel depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.75 ii devio 1.2-1.2+b1 ii initramfs-tools 0.140 ii linux-base 4.6 ii mtd-utils 1:2.1.2-2 ii ucf 3.0043 Versions of packages flash-kernel recommends: ii u-boot-tools 2021.01+dfsg-4 flash-kernel suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/flash-kernel/db changed: Machine: Olimex A64-Olinuxino-eMMC Kernel-Flavors: arm64 DTB-Id: allwinner/sun50i-a64-olinuxino-emmc.dtb Boot-Script-Path: /boot/boot.scr U-Boot-Script-Name: bootscr.uboot-generic Required-Packages: u-boot-tools -- debconf information: * flash-kernel/linux_cmdline: quiet
