I think this might be related to something we discussed last month (starting from [1])! Am I right to assume that: - Marek, you have the A2 partition starting at the sector 2048 of the SD card? (I think that this is the partitioning of the reference designs) - Christian, your SD card partitioning is different? The 2016.05 socfpga SPL loads U-Boot from a fixed offset on the SD card, and this could explain why you both have a different behavior if you have different offsets for your partitions! So, Christian, you could try to move your A2 partition (which contains u-boot-with-spl.sfp ) to the offset that the SPL expects, ie: ----------8<-------------------8<--------------- $ sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdc Disk /dev/sdc: 7969 MB, 7969177600 bytes 246 heads, 62 sectors/track, 1020 cylinders, total 15564800 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x00000000 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdc1 2000000 3000000 500000+ b W95 FAT32 /dev/sdc2 14000 1999999 993000 83 Linux /dev/sdc3 2048 4096 1024+ a2 Unknown Partition table entries are not in disk order ----------8<-------------------8<--------------- Or else, if you'd rather keep your SD layout, Marek accepted a patch that will be in v2016.07 (I think) to enable loading U-Boot from an offset starting at the beginning of a partition (the third one by default): [2] However, if you want to apply this patch in v2016.05, you should enable CONFIG_SPL_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE, and also apply [3] due to size constraints.
