[Trisquel-devel] trisquel ARM install tarball

Mon Sep 4 18:04:59 UTC 2023

Hi all,

Back to testing the ARM install, this time on rockpro64.

I ran 

$ zcat firmware.rockpro64-rk3399.img.gz partition.img.gz >
complete_rockpro64.img
$ sudo dd if=complete_rockpro64.img of=/dev/sdc bs=4M

Then I tried booting, here is what I get on the serial console (also shown
on the screen connected via HDMI):

I stopped it at that point. I am guessing that the "Bad Linux ARM64 Image
magic!" is the point at which it fails to boot.

I actually have two boards, one where I flashed U-boot on the SPI flash for
Debian install (I successfully booted a freedombox image on it, then it runs
the freedombox install via the web interface), one where I did not. I have
the same on both boards.

I decided to try something else:

$ zcat firmware.none.img.gz partition.img.gz > complete_none.img
$ sudo dd if=complete_none.img of=/dev/sdc bs=4M

Here is what I get:

After the last line shows up, the screen shows a funny colour pattern for a
few seconds and then becomes dark. There is nothing anymore on the serial
console. I ran that on the board with U-boot in the SPI flash.

What gave me the idea to try that is that freedombox is booting with a
generic arm64 image, not an image specifc to the rockpro64.

I tried the Debian installer (I mean, Debian, not Trisquel), here is what I
get with the image with firmware:

At the "Starting kernel", I see the same pattern on the display like with
the trisquel no-firmware image but, after a few second of black screen but
with signal, I have the installer.

However, the USB keyboard is unresponsive, so this is somehow unusable. If I
press arrow keys and enter on the serial console, I see some reactions but
on the serial console only, not on the display. It looks like pressing enter
gets to the next install step, but the display on the serial console is not
really usable to know what you are doing.

I tested with the other board, the behaviour is exactly the same. I tested
with the "firmware.none", the result is exactly the same.

I am out of ideas for today, so I stop here.
