Re: Fedora with Odroid-XU4 and Cloudshell 2

Okay. I can confirm I can now boot the USB device to completion. I was also successfully able to upgrade the system using the "dnf -y update" command and reboot successfully using the newer kernel. The key was NOT to create a new initramfs image after changing the UUIDs for the root partition. As well, the cpuidle.off=1 kernel boot parameter was required in the extlinux.conf file.

I did NOT concatenate the u-boot.bin and u-boot.dtb files. I just flashed the u-boot.bin with the other files from Hardkernel that Dennis specifies below.

There are two problems I see right off the bat. First, as Dennis mentions, the USB3 ports do not work. Second, only 4 of the 8 cpus seem to be working based on a top command. Even so, the system actually seems pretty responsive and usable.

I will now attempt to get the system installed on the eMMC card. I will report on that progress later.

HI Dennis

Examining your process stated below, did you really append the u-
boot.dtb to the u-boot.bin file in the u-boot-dtb.bin file?  Why did
you concatenate them?  That seems out of the norm.  Why not just
flash the u-boot.bin file provided by Fedora?

Regards,

I did concatnate them. From experience u-boot will load the dtb from
the end of the u-boot binary. and u-boot needs the dtb in modern u-
boots to define the hardware. u-boot build process for some boards does
the concatnation, not sure if the xu3 u-boot makes a u-boot-dtb.bin
file and we do not ship it, or its just not making it.

Hello Dennis,

that looks beautiful. You have a running Odroid-XU4 with actual
Kernel
with Fedora 26 !!

How did you manage it? I haven't so much luck with the
installation.

Thanks
Andreas
I ran

xzcat Fedora-Server-armhfp-26-1.5-sda.raw.xz|dd of=/dev/sdb bs=4MiB
cat /usr/share/uboot/odroid-xu3/u-boot.bin > u-boot-dtb.bin
cat /usr/share/uboot/odroid-xu3/u-boot.dtb >> u-boot-dtb.bin
I grabbed from https://github.com/hardkernel/u-boot/tree/odroidxu4-
v201
7.05/sd_fuse bl1.bin.hardkernel bl2.bin.hardkernel.720k_uboot
tzsw.bin.hardkernel and sd_fusing.sh
then ran
sh sd_fusing.sh /dev/sdb
I used parted to resize partition 4 mounted it and ran xfs_growfs
so it
filled the sd card

I mounted partition 2 and edited extlinux/extlinux.conf adding
cpuidle.off=1 to the append line. I did have to edit etc/passwd and
unlock the root account as initial-setup is not running.

of couse /dev/sdb was my sdcard, make sure you have the right
device
for yours.  It does seem that the nic is not detected however.

Dennis
