| 12:44 | heap_> | Ke: and how can i copy out on the new card that 1k of 3rd sectro? |
| 12:48 | Ke> | if you have 4k card, I have no idea, if it's supported, all SD cards are using 512 sectors |
| 12:50 | heap_> | means ? i cant do it? |
| 12:51 | heap_> | so can i install new uboot on new card using my old /boot structure ? |
| 13:42 | Ke> | what mass storage media are you trying to goot from |
| 13:43 | Ke> | it is unlikely that it would be 4K media |
| 13:43 | Ke> | UFS isa and some rare hard disks |
| 13:43 | Ke> | s/isa/is/ |
| 14:00 | heap_> | i dontget it |
| 14:00 | heap_> | i have sd card where bootloader + /boot folder was. |
| 14:00 | heap_> | and rest of the files were on 2.5" hdd connected via usb. |
| 14:35 | Ke> | heap_: if question was how to write to 1K it,s just like in the link given by jnettlet[m] |
| 14:36 | Ke> | dd if=SPL of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1K seek=1 |
| 14:36 | Ke> | actually the offset dd if=u-boot.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1K seek=42 |
| 14:37 | Ke> | you know these instructions are intentionally obfuscated, because SoC vendors hate you |
| 14:40 | Ke> | wonder how wandboard would have a different boot offset as cubox-i, if the have the same SoC |
| 14:43 | heap_> | Ke: maybe too much complicated description for me |
| 14:43 | heap_> | all i wanted is to use my old /boot + kernel image and move it to new card... |
| 14:43 | heap_> | sd * |
| 14:44 | heap_> | simple things are explained here very complicated... i think... sometimes. |
| 14:44 | Ke> | sure |
| 14:45 | heap_> | im not expert. |
| 14:45 | Ke> | anyway you know how to manage, what is on the SD card |
| 14:45 | Ke> | after learning that, you can try things out |
| 14:46 | Ke> | most of the time you do not break anythign |
| 14:46 | Ke> | it is the way you learn |
| 14:46 | heap_> | i know i need to migrate /boot directory whcih i already copied out |
| 14:46 | heap_> | all i need to do is write/migrate boot loader to new sd card. |
| 14:47 | Ke> | do you have the bootloader image? |
| 14:48 | Ke> | I think the nasty part that the bootloader configuration is not unified anyway between platforms |
| 14:51 | heap_> | i dont knwo |
| 14:51 | heap_> | do you read what i was requestiong? |
| 14:51 | heap_> | im not changin platfor hw/sw |
| 14:51 | heap_> | all is the same. |
| 14:51 | heap_> | just old sd card got corrupted partially |
| 14:51 | heap_> | so whats is the connection with different platforms? |
| 14:52 | heap_> | i dont understand |
| 14:55 | Ke> | no I was just complaining in general |
| 14:56 | Ke> | I don't have a cubox so no personal experience so I can just try to help you interpret, what I can read |
| 14:56 | Ke> | if there was a standard way of doing things, I could just tell you |
| 14:57 | Ke> | is the problem, you don't have a u-boot image? |
| 15:00 | Ke> | do you know how to copy parts of the SD-card to another SD card? |
| 15:00 | Ke> | using dd? |
| 15:08 | heap_> | Ke: i can mount broken sd card and copy out /boot folder without problems |
| 15:09 | heap_> | and create new fs on new sd card and copy /boot there |
| 15:09 | heap_> | the problem is that u-boot or boot loader on the old card is i think broken |
| 15:09 | heap_> | so all i need to do is install new boot loader on new card ; copy /boot on new card and hopefully it should boot and read rest of the FS from 2.5' drive connected via usb |
| 15:10 | heap_> | am i wrong or right? |
| 15:12 | Ke> | I don't actually know, ovbiously it works if the old and new bootloader configurations are exactly the same |
| 15:13 | Ke> | sometimes they may not be |
| 15:37 | Ke> | on mcbin: Opening serial port /dev/ttyS1 failed: Input/output error |
| 15:37 | Ke> | suihkulokki: does one of the serial ports on mcbin work for you? |
| 15:38 | Ke> | suihkulokki: notably the IO error is even with nothing connected |
| 15:38 | Ke> | openat(AT_FDCWD, "/dev/ttyS1", O_RDWR|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK) = 3 |
| 15:38 | Ke> | ioctl(3, TCGETS, 0xffffd69bd0f0) = -1 EIO (Input/output error) |
| 15:51 | vpeter> | Ke: Isn't 1kB offset standard for imx6? |
| 15:52 | vpeter> | For SPL at least. Location for u-boot.img is programmed in u-boot. |
| 15:53 | Ke> | vpeter: perhaps, I mean between platforms |
| 15:54 | Ke> | like non i.MX6 |
| 15:54 | Ke> | and I don't mean just the offset, but all the u-boot things |
| 15:56 | Ke> | like where do you start loading the other stuff, or whether you have separate SPL |
| 15:56 | Ke> | sometimes there is a reason for the differences, but very often it's just a vendor preference for no reason at all |
| 15:57 | Ke> | I think my watchdog works outside of the serial thing |
| 15:57 | vpeter> | Loader in SoC knows where to look for next part. So here is 1kB. SPL then decide where to look for img. And it loads and execute. And then load kernel, ... |
| 15:57 | Ke> | quite |
| 16:28 | Ke> | at least the SoC and the phy heatsinks feel quite cool, when touching them |
| 16:28 | Ke> | but right now the ethernet is not connected |
| 16:36 | vpeter> | One problem changed for another :) |
| 16:37 | Ke> | well it's physically not connected, so not actually unexpected |
| 16:37 | Ke> | I physically moved the unit to make the watchdog connections |
| 16:37 | Ke> | now the watchdog is outside the case with reset button, power button and power led connected |
| 16:39 | vpeter> | Make a picture of whole setup. |
| 16:42 | Ke> | right now there is so much wiring that it's not really doable |
| 16:42 | Ke> | I'll get shorter sata cables soon |
| 16:48 | Ke> | now I'll get to see, whether the watchdog start race conditions with the appereance of ttyUSB0 |
| 16:51 | Ke> | I'll also publish the sources for the pain of everyone else |
| 17:15 | Ke> | hmm. actually I am drawing the power of the arduino from USB that's kind of stupid |
| 17:22 | Ke> | now I am running on the spectre-proofish fw |
| 17:28 | suihkulokki> | Ke: never connected anything to the second serial so no idea |
| 17:54 | Ke> | vpeter: this is about the way it's connected now https://users.aalto.fi/~jkarlson/files/arduino.svg |
| 19:00 | vpeter> | jnettlet[m]: building openwrt sr and I'm getting |
| 19:00 | vpeter> | DTC arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-385-naeba.dtb |
| 19:00 | vpeter> | ERROR (phandle_references): Reference to non-existent node or label "tdm_pins" |
| 19:23 | vpeter> | Maybe related to my changes. Rebuilding... |
| 20:13 | heap_> | vpeter: ? |
| 21:38 | GArik> | the top usb port doesn't work reliably on cubox-i in arch linux. Is this a known issue? I found a topic with a similar issue in arch forums, but there is no answers |
| 21:51 | GArik> | i think it used to work better with 4.14.x kernel |
