I overlooked you tried this image on another board. We should build a new image with a u-boot built with bananapi_m2_zero_defconfig. I can prepare one if you want. Cheers, Guillaume

I recently got myself a bananapi m2 zero. It works well with armbian. Naive as I am, I tried to boot the openSUSE-Tumbleweed-ARM-XFCE-sinovoipbpim2plus.armv7l.raw on it and of course failed miserably :-)
Today, with a serial console attached I found out that u-boot did not find the sdcard. OK, I just copied the u-boot from the armbian image over (after finding out it is directly on the SD card unpartitioned "header.." ;-)) and now it boots into GRUB and later even to a login prompt on the serial console.
I would expect it to work, since config has CONFIG_MMC_SUNXI_SLOT_EXTRA=2 to enable it. Could you share a bit more about this SD card failure, please?
But there is nothing on the display (I would not care) and, worse, no ethernet / WiFi.
I guess I'd need a matching device tree file for the board (I also needed to recompile it for armbian to use the USB OTG port as an USB host port), but I failed at finding out where I could specify the dtb file to be used for booting.
Any hints on where to look for this?
The dtb should installed as part of dtb-sun8i package. But we have a kernel failure with -lpae flavor, so there may be a mismatch between dtb and kernel. You may want to try kernel-default instead.
Cheers, Guillaume
