UBOOT Errors after flashing new os to mmc - aechanio - 08-16-2021
Hello,
After using the KDE manjaro distribution for a bit I decided to switch to something more lightweight. i went for the xfce manjaro.
I followed the instructions on this.
https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=10403
green booting lights are now amber and after a short moment the uboot menu appears. This was not happening before on the original factory manjaro install. Who else has this happened to?
Now instead of booting straight into the operating system it goes to a uboot menu that looks like this
U-Boot 2021,04-3 (May 14 2021 16:20:42 +0000) Manjaro ARM

I want to make the pinebook boot like it used to. Directly into manjaro and with green lights.
How can I configure Uboot to automatically boot the distribution i have flashed on the mmc of the pinebook and get rid of the boot prompts as well as the amber boot light ?
please help if you can thanks.

That thread you linked has an older manjaro img linked in it. try flashing this img: https://manjaro.org/downloads/arm/pinebook-pro/arm8-pinebook-pro-xfce/ it's straight from Manjaro and more up-to-date. You should be able to boot right into the OS with it.

I used the current release.
It does boot to the os just fine. You have to wait 3 seconds with the uboot message on without touching any keys.
I just want to have it directly boot the os not to go to this screen at all with the uboot messages and also i want the green light not the amber one to be working.
does anyone know about this?

You can try a different U-Boot (older or BSP).
I think there is a way to disable the boot screen, it think it was discussed somewhere on the Manjaro ARM forum.

great idea, using your reply i found this page
https://github.com/manjaro-arm/pbpro-bsp-images/releases
I will flash the original factory image... instead of the most recent MANJARO arm pbpro release.
I shall let you all know what happens. ty.
