Hi,
I have no problem modifying the sun50i-a64-sopine-baseboard.dtb file and the fix script by @Dippywood also works like a charm!
However, I wanted to execute the fix script from the rc.local script during boot, as @Dippywood suggests. This does not work for me.
I placed the script (called it clusterboard_dtb_fix.sh, with execution bit set) in /usr/local/bin and added the line "/usr/local/bin/clusterboard_dtb_fix.sh" to rc.local. (I also tried "sudo /usr/local/bin/clusterboard_dtb_fix.sh" in rc.local). Then I made sure that it worked, by executing the rc.local script when I was logged in on the module. No problem, the rc.local script, and thus fix script, is working when manually executed.
Then I tried to look in the log (using journalctl -b) after a reboot and here I see “Nov 10 21:23:30 pine64so rc.local[967]: Fix already in place” so the script is executed during boot! (But not after an apt-get upgrade :-()
My best guess is that calling the script from rc.local is too late in the boot process, thus it is not working.
Has anybody successfully added a call to rc.local that actually works on boot?
Well, I could just remember to execute the fix script after each apt-get upgrade, but it would be so much nicer if it was applied automatic during boot of the module.
Kind regards,
Anders.
