Hi Eli, Thanks for your email. I just checked this topic and through a back channel I learned that some support is going on with this matter. In case you are unable to solve your issue please contact the mailing list again and keep me on CC. I have physical and remote access to several R-Car Gen3 boards including h3ulcb in ES1 and ES2 versions. For Salvator-X I also wrote some scripts to automate update of the firmware stack from Linux, so I have experience using the SCIF D/L mode on R-Car Gen3 SoCs. If you are stuck with the firmware updating process feel free to ping me and I can point you in the right direction.

I first followed the instructions at http://elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/Yocto-Gen3 to build Yocto 2.19 for the board. When I attempted to run the built Yocto image on the board (both via tftp and via microSD), I received a kernel panic message. The limited resources on the internet (i.e., the other posts on this wiki) indicated this could likely be resolved by updating the firmware. I then followed the instructions at http://elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/H3SK#Flashing_firmware to update the firmware on the board. Now when I turn the board on, I cannot get to the stage where the option of cancelling autoboot (as shown in examples in the links given). I am therefore not able to change U-Boot's environment variables to specify the Image file to boot. It seems that U-Boot is perhaps not loading at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated! > Output of boot sequence is below: > > > > user@user-linux:~$ sudo picocom -b 115200 --send-cmd "ascii-xfr -vvs" /dev/ttyUSB0 > [sudo] password for user: > picocom v1.7 > port is : /dev/ttyUSB0 > flowcontrol : none > baudrate is : 115200 > parity is : none > databits are : 8 > escape is : C-a > local echo is : no > noinit is : no > noreset is : no > nolock is : no > send_cmd is : ascii-xfr -vvs > receive_cmd is : rz -vv > imap is : > omap is : > emap is : crcrlf,delbs, > Terminal ready > [ 0.000194] NOTICE: BL2: R-Car Gen3 Initial Program Loader(CA57) Rev.1.0.14 > [ 0.005761] NOTICE: BL2: PRR is R-Car H3 Ver2.0 > [ 0.010335] NOTICE: BL2: Board is unknown Rev0.0 > [ 0.015006] NOTICE: BL2: Boot device is HyperFlash(80MHz) > [ 0.020445] NOTICE: BL2: LCM state is CM > [ 0.024423] NOTICE: BL2: AVS setting succeeded.
