Mainline Kernel 5.4 Solution - khaosgrille - 01-04-2020
Hi,
i managed to get Ayufans 5.4 Mainline Kernel to run.
The Kernel option for CONFIG_TMPFS needs to be activated prior compiling.
Besides that u can follow this guide https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=6799
I also increased ramdisk_addr_r in the uboot shell and since this https://nixos.wiki/wiki/NixOS_on_ARM/PINE64_ROCKPro64 Guide mentioned something about it but i am not sure if it is necessary.
Btw with this fix it still needs ages to boot since the dtbs is missing and some other stuff is very unoptimised. i also need around 2 min to login and couldnt get a keyboard working on the board directly.
Greetings Khaosgrille

I played around with the 5.4.0 kernel but the performance is beyond terrible. I am assuming ayufans 4.4 kernel got bunch of configurations to use the rockpro64 optimal. It works but i need around 2-10 min to boot, 2 min to login and it freezes every now and than. SSD is not recognized with the 5.4 Kernel.
