Hi Ahmad, thank you for the great help. There's a lot to learn for me here. > Does it come from the phytec git directly? Upstream barebox has this: The zeus image I build here includes layer meta-phytec branch zeus and a custom layer from phytec called meta-ksp0663. On the custom layer I created a new branch zeus and just renamed the barebox and barebox-targettools bbappend files from 2017 to 2019. You are right about the missing state in barebox2019.01. for barebox 2019 drvinfo just contains: state drvinfo for barebox 2017 says: state imx6qdl_phytec_boot_state.19 Does that mean that the driver is not loaded? At the barebox2019 version of_dump returns: Cannot find nodepath state At the barebox2017 version of_dump returns a full subtree for imx6qdl_phytec_boot_state and the eeprom entry for state. Looking into the 2017 barebox sources using find ./ -iname "imx6qdl-phytec*.dtsi" it finds imx6qdl-phytec-state.dtsi: This file does not exist in the 2019 barebox sources. There is only imx6ul-phytec-state.dtsi available. Now I will try the upstream version. Thank you very much for your help.
