Hi All. We have brought up the cubieboard2 from almost scratch, following are the steps done : == u-boot == u-boot has been compiled using bleeding-edge mainline (ec5c4a8fd64a178a4d159917cda0aa176e5a9be5), via : * make Cubieboard2_defconfig * make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/home/ajay/arm-toolchain-6.2/arm-linux-gnueabihf- This gives us u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin == kernel == kernel also has been compiled using bleeding-edge mainline (6d08b06e67cd117f6992c46611dfb4ce267cd71e) via : * make clean * make ARCH=arm sunxi_defconfig menuconfig In the menu, enabled following additional features : * General setup => System V IPC * General setup => POSIX Message Queues * Kernel features => Xen guest support on ARM * make -j$(nproc) ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/home/ajay/arm-toolchain-6.2/arm-linux-gnueabihf- zImage * make -j$(nproc) ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/home/ajay/arm-toolchain-6.2/arm-linux-gnueabihf- sun7i-a20-cubieboard2.dtb This gives us zImage and sun7i-a20-cubieboard2.dtb. == integration, and starting up == Followed the steps as per https://github.com/maronai/cubieboard/wiki/3.1.-Compiling-mainline-kernel-for-CubieBoard2-and-CubieTruck, but with following differences : a) Used u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin, zImage, sun7i-a20-cubieboard2.dtb from above steps. b) Used (and compiled to boot.scr) the following boot.cmd : fatload mmc 0 0x46000000 zImage fatload mmc 0 0x49000000 sun7i-a20-cubieboard2.dtb setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 rw root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 bootz 0x46000000 - 0x49000000 c) Extracted debian-wheezy-7.5-armhf.com-20140603.tar to the rootfs partition on the sd-card. d) Finally, inserted the sdcard in cubieboard2, following are the brief bootup logs : ################################################################## U-Boot SPL 2018.05-rc2-00118-gec5c4a8 (Apr 28 2018 - 08:40:48 +0530) DRAM: 1024 MiB CPU: 912000000Hz, AXI/AHB/APB: 3/2/2 Trying to boot from MMC1 U-Boot 2018.05-rc2-00118-gec5c4a8 (Apr 28 2018 - 08:40:48 +0530) Allwinner Techy CPU: Allwinner A20 (SUN7I) Model: Cubietech Cubieboard2 I2C: ready DRAM: 1 GiB MMC: SUNXI SD/MMC: 0 Loading Environment from FAT... *** Warning - bad CRC, using default environment Failed (-5) In: serial Out: serial Err: serial SCSI: SATA link 0 timeout.

I have gone through https://xenbits.xen.org/docs/unstable/misc/arm/device-tree/booting.txt, but am not sure what exact changes are needed. As mentioned somewhere at the last in the link, we would prefer if no changes in uboot are required, and the dom0-bootup can be achieved by only changing the dt(s/b) file at https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/arch/arm/boot/dts/sun7i-a20-cubieboard2.dts Will be grateful for help.
