rk2aw questions
#1
Hi. I have installed rk2aw and primary/fallback bootloaders from https://xff.cz/kernels/bootloaders-2024.04/ppp/ with spinor-flash-initial-setup.sh script. Then, I have installed mobian to emmc with installer image booted from SD card. Mobian does not load when just turning on the phone but if I enter rk2aw LED based menu and select primary (2 flashes) or fallback (3 flashes) bootloader, then selecting mobian option from uboot will actually load the OS. Looking at https://xnux.eu/log/098.html I was hoping that EFI stuff will work but I'm getting invalid elf header magic errors.
So I have few questions:
1. How to diagnose what is preventing booting with "Perform a normal rk2aw boot." option (1 flash)
2. What are the differences for ppp between floss and rkbin bootloaders? (menu looks the same for me).
3. Maybe primary bootloader does not work for me and I'm always taken to the fallback bootloader, so how can I verify which uboot bootloader menu is being shown?
