I build a CubieTruck image using the installer script with the

options:

   --target=Cubietruck --media=/dev/sdb --norootpass --selinux=OFF
--addconsole --resizefs
allwinner automatically outputs to the serial console without a boot
argument to set it, that step is not necessary.

I guess just one of those things you have to know. So far, all I am working with are allwinner boards.

Will add this to my notes.


I booted up the image with a UDB keyboard and VGA monitor attached
plus
the TTY console.

After I logged into the console as root, I set the root password,
and
added myself as a user.  I then used this userID to log into the Xfce
login.

Next I did 'dnf update'  Of course this took time to run.  But a
VERY
long time between the cleanup and verify phases.  During these I got
the
message:


Image Name:   4.10.0-0.rc5.git0.1.fc26.armv7hl

dracut: Disabling early microcode, because kernel does not support
it.
CONFIG_MICROCODE_[AMD|INTEL]!=y


eventually the update finished.  The system SEEMS to be working, but
what is with this message?
What part of the message?  the dracut part is a message saying that an
x86 only opton for firmware patching is not set. it is just noise on
non x86 but could be useful on x86. the other messages are from
mkimage, for historical reasons we make wrapped kernels and initramfs's
which we do not actually use.

So basically I just ignore this. But it seemed that dracut ran a very long time before it spit out this information and finished up. Like it was not happy about something and finally gave up.

So I will ignore this and keep plugging along.

thanks
