It should be supported, but apparently there is some bug. I guess it's about not properly reserving memory used by the armstub/ATF. Do you use the embedded RPi foundation armstub or ATF (do you have an "armstub=..." line in config.txt)? I will try take a look at this later. > I need to set a ramdisk and bootefi dont support that. Try "initrd=<filename>" on the kernel command line. This is actually an EFI stub feature, the EFI command line is parsed by this pre-kernel code, which filters for initrd= and loads the initrd using the UEFI API (implemented by U-Boot). So the initrd has to live on the EFI system partition, which means you can't load it easily via TFTP :-( More details here: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/efi-stub.html#the-initrd-option Cheers, Andre
