 samueldr | * so what you're seeing there is the SPL looking at the SD card for the rest of U-Boot and... hanging | 00:32:09 |
 novmar | Ahhh thats spi part of uboot | 00:32:31 |
| novmar | ok | 00:32:32 |
| samueldr | SPL != SPI :) | 00:32:37 |
| samueldr | SPL != SPI | 00:32:54 |
| novmar | :-) | 00:32:57 |
| samueldr | I guess the font can lead you astray | 00:33:01 |
| samueldr | since you're pressed for time, I would suggest you defer to another point in time | 00:33:26 |
| novmar | ah thanks a lot man | 00:33:30 |
| novmar | may be i'll have time some other time to try it again ... | 00:33:54 |
| novmar | may be not | 00:33:56 |
| novmar | GN | 00:34:10 |
| samueldr | 'night! | 00:34:21 |
| samueldr | yeah, not worth the buy just to check :/ just over the impulse buy "just for the heck of it" price point | 00:35:39 |
| novmar | samueldr: hexdump of armbian image, i found start of u-boot | 00:46:22 |
| novmar | 00002000 be 02 00 ea 65 47 4f 4e 2e 42 54 30 37 5a 22 a1 |....eGON.BT07Z".|
| 00:46:26 |
| samueldr | armbian doesn't always use mainline U-Boot (mainline meaning from the project) | 00:46:53 |
| samueldr | they sometime use the U-Boot from the board vendor | 00:47:01 |
| samueldr | which is often old, sometimes really old | 00:47:10 |
| novmar | ah main idea was, if it isn\t shiifted ... | 00:48:02 |
| novmar | but it is aligned | 00:48:07 |
| samueldr | the SoC checks for eGON so it wouldn't have tried to use it if it was shifted | 00:48:26 |
| samueldr | exactly for that reason | 00:48:30 |
| novmar | ah ok | 00:49:00 |
| novmar | so it does't matter, where it starts ... :-) | 00:49:24 |
| samueldr | right, yes, the Allwinner family of SoC checks at a location (actually it might be a few, but only one will work with current U-Boot) | 00:49:54 |
| samueldr | exactly 0x2000, or 16*512 | 00:50:27 |
| novmar | :-) | 00:50:36 |
| novmar | ok | 00:50:37 |
| samueldr | ah, bs=1024 seek=8 so 8x1024 | 00:50:56 |
