Orange Pi Linux Opi Zero2 DTB issues

saurabh

I downloaded the OrangePi Linux image for the Orange Pi Zero2 board from here. This image boots and works fine.

I noticed that the /boot/boot.cmd script is such that it does not actually load the DTB file for the Zero2 board. I need to make some changes to the DTB/DTS file for my project. But if I update the boot.cmd script and generate the new boot.scr such that it loads the DTB file using the FDT command, then the kernel stops booting.

Here are the FDT lines in the original boot.cmd

1. #load ${devtype} ${devnum} ${fdt_addr_r} ${prefix}dtb/${fdtfile}
   
2. #fdt addr -c ${fdt_addr_r}
   
3. #fdt addr ${fdt_addr_r}
   
4. #fdt resize 65536

Copy code

Here is what I have changed them to:

1. load ${devtype} ${devnum} ${fdt_addr_r} ${prefix}dtb-4.9.170-sun50iw9/sunxi/sun50i-h616-orangepi-zero2.dtb
   
2. fdt addr -c ${fdt_addr_r} 0x40000
   
3. fdt addr ${fdt_addr_r} 0x40000       
   
4. fdt resize 0x10000

With this changed boot.scr/boot.cmd file, this is the output I see on the UART console. After this boot gets stuck. I have tried with different values of the FDT address, such as 0x10000, ${fdt_addr_r}, etc. Always the same result. Sometimes the display on HDMI becomes shaky but nothing else happens.

In the past I have used Armbian on the Orange Pi PC board. The boot.scr of Armbian always uses the DTB file from dtb/, so I have never faced this problem. I am able to include various settings, such as enabling OTG port, in the DTB files and DTBO overlays. But with this Linux image I am facing problems.

Hello,

Do you manage to install docker on the Ubuntu version from Xunlong?

I have tried Ubuntu/Debian but still get this error

Ensure that you are using the correct DTB file for your specific Orange Pi Zero2 board revision and the Linux distribution you are running magic tiles 3. DTB files can vary based on hardware revisions, so using an incorrect DTB can cause compatibility issues.
