Kernel for A64 git
#44

I just received my new Pine64, installed the base system and kernel (thanks longsleep!)  and booted just fine.  Video was wonky, but that's apparently known.

I saw an updated kernel available, as well as the updated uboot, so using the method above I went ahead and installed them.

Well, i didn't get far, because I couldn't boot anymore.


After hooking up a serial console (hooray for my BusPirate 4.0!)  I saw that uboot wasn't able to boot the new kernel.
I was able to boot the old kernel manually, and set out to find out why.

Here's the old kernel that boots just fine:
root@p64:/boot# od -xa old/kernel.img |head
0000000    4e41    5244    494f    2144    30c0    00c9    0000    4108

0000020    0000    0000    0000    4100    0000    0000    0000    40f0
       nul nul nul nul nul nul nul   A nul nul nul nul nul nul   p   @
0000040    0100    4000    0800    0000    0000    0000    0000    0000
       nul soh nul   @ nul  bs nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul
0000060    6950    656e    3436    0000    0000    0000    0000    0000
         P   i   n   e   6   4 nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul
0000100    0000    0000    0000    0000    0000    0000    0000    0000
       nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul


And the newly installed kernel:

root@p64:/boot# od -xa pine64/Image |head
0000000    0010    1400    0000    0000    0000    0008    0000    0000

0000020    0000    0000    0000    0000    0000    0000    0000    0000
       nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul
*
0000060    0000    0000    0000    0000    5241    644d    0000    0000
       nul nul nul nul nul nul nul nul   A   R   M   d nul nul nul nul

0000120    0050    9400    0016    d538    03e0    aa16    0121    9400



So, the magic at the beginning of the file is different.  Too different apparently for uboot?

here's what my environment looks like, using the new kernel:

boota: bad boot image magic, maybe not a boot.img?                                                                                                                                                                                  

is this a *me* issue that I can correct with some uEnv tweaking, or something different?


*** edit

there's 2059 bytes of 'header' at the beginning of the old kernel image that's not on the new Image.
transplanting this header creates a file that is recognized, but doesn't work (presumably it doesn't have the right offsets, or some other data)

@longsleep correct me if I'm wrong Smile
I think you have a uboot / kernel mismatch. The latest image provided by @longsleep should boot using booti and kernel does not require the Android magic header. 


For the previous message in the thread - the Linux image supports the WiFi part of that adapter, I am not sure about the bluetooth.
