So I kept testing over the last few days. The kernel is properly built.
I tested it by mounting the prebuilt Armbian 5.90 Debian Stretch 4.4.182 and changing the symlink to test my linux image. This booted properly but does lose console during the boot. It seems like either the earlycon or the bootconsole is set incorrectly to print the messages prior to entering user space:
Is the bootconsole supposed to be set to [uart2]?
So from my previous post, I correctly set the memory address for the DTB and the kernel works with the rest of Ayufan's images. I also tested with the DTB from my linux build and that worked as well.
If anyone has any idea if this is an upstream U-Boot problem with the Ayufan linux build or if I am making some stupid mistake somewhere please let me know.
Thanks.
