Hello,
I am (stilL) trying to boot openSUSE on Rock64. I use JeOS image from Contrib:Rockchip and manually built bootloader (with 0001-XXX-openSUSE-XXX-Prepend-partition-.patch). And currently I see the following new issue:
mmc1 is current device Scanning mmc 1:2... 52462 bytes read in 43 ms (1.2 MiB/s) Failed to mount ext2 filesystem... ** Unrecognized filesystem type ** Scanning mmc 1:1...

GNU GRUB version 2.02
Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB
lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists possible device or file completions.

I see that both dtb file and EFI GRUB executable are loaded. But instead of GRUB menu I see GRUB command line. I suppose it means that grub failed to fetch GRUB configuration. How could I debug further what is wrong?
Correct. Grub failed to fetch the configuration because it failed to initialize the prefix correctly. If you run "set" on the command line, you should be able to see that the prefix is wrong. You can as interim step set it manually using the set command and then run "normal". That should get you a working grub menu.
Indeed, the prefix is (hd0)/efi/boot, instead of (hd0,gpt1)/efi/boot.
The really important question is why grub could not determine its prefix correctly though. What U-Boot version are you basing on? There were a few bugs with the device path exposure in 2018.05 IIRC.
I am running downstream u-boot with rock64 support: https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-u-boot It is based on 2017.09
Alex
Has anyone gotten their rock64 to boot opensuse?
I have ayufan's u-boot installed to SPI.
The opensuse Tumbleweed JeOS image downloaded from https:// download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/ARM:/Factory:/Contrib:/Rockchip/ images/
I've dd'ed the image to emmc and usb. The boot partition seems to start at the correct position 32768, but when the rock64 boots, I'm dropped to grub shell This is most likely because of a bug in the device path logic in u-boot versions between 2017.09 and 2017.11.
grub> grub> ls
yields (hd0) (hd0,gpt3) (hd0,gpt2) (hd0,gpt1)
grub> set prefix=(hd0,gpt1)/efi/boot grub> set root=(hdo,gpt3) grub> set btrfs_relative_path=yes < yes or blank yields the same grub> normal
yields the grub menu, and whether I chose Tumbleweed or failsafe I get: Loading kernel... Loading initrd... EFI stub: Booting Linux Kernel... EFI stub: EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL unavailable, no randomness supplied EFI stub: ERROR: Could not determine UEFI Secure Boot status. EFI stub: Using DTB from configuration table EFI stub: Exiting boot services and installing virtual address map
and that's as far as it gets.
That means Linux booted. It's a matter of fiddling with DT and kernel command line options to also make it show something.
Thanks for the reply. I've tried setting earlycon=uart8250,0xff130000 (I got the memory address from the dtb file - not sure that it is correct) but it stops booting in the same spot. Also, earlycon is set to yes in the opensuse config-4.18.8-1-default file so this may not even be needed.
Does your device tree contain a /chosen node with an stdout-path property? In that case, passing "earlycon" on the kernel command line might already be enough.
Using dtc to decompile the rk3228-rock64.dtb file I found: stdout-path = "serial2:1500000n8" and serial2 = "/serial@ff130000" Mark

My internet searches don't provide me with a howto on grub with btrfs and the man page for grub2-editenv is very sparse.
Thanks for any help.
