Any ideas?
After hours of playing with the DTB, i finally found the reason why the upstream kernel DTB doesn't work with U-Boot on RPI 4. The DTS must be compiled with flag "-@". It isn't clear to me, why this is necessary but it would be nice to make U-Boot work without this. Regards Stefan > > Best regards > Stefan > >
