Tow-Boot on PP
#1
Good day,

I have  a PP Dev edition. Trying to install tow-boot and so far tried everything under the sun.  The phone does not want to boot into Tow-boot.

This is what I am getting:

:: Auto-booting FIT image -> Reading file9330348 bytes read in 981 ms (9.1 MiB)
 -> Attempting boot...## Executing script at 00600000
sha1+
 :: Auto-booting FIT image...

Unknown command 'setexpr' - try 'help'
## Loading kernel from FIT Image at 00600000 ...
Could not find configuration node
ERROR: can't get kernel image!
SCRIPT FAILED: continuing...

Disk mmc@fe310000.blk not ready
Scanning disk mmc@fe320000.blk...
Scanning disk mmc@fe330000.blk...
Found 6 disks
No EFI system partition


Any idea would be great.

Thanks.

Found it, since the unit I have is a dev ppp, I needed to erase blk2 as per documentation. After that normal boot into the spi flasher without holding the reset button and all is working ok now.
