I'm wondering if there is a typo in here????
Yes it should be /dev/rld0
Quote:>I worry that Manjaru updates will automatically update U-Boot
AFAIK, only mrfixit actually writes to 1st 16M
Manjaro dumps idbloader and uboot.itb into /boot, for you to do the dd commands
OTOH, an update of dtb which comes with a new kernel can mess things up
We know what Manjaru does today, but we don't really know what it will do tomorrow.  And as far as I'm concerned, it doesn't have a good track record.
