Hi, I have some issues booting a Raspi 4 (Model B, 2GB RAM) from USB. It simply insists on having a SD-card. Following [1] I updated the firmware to the latest version coming with Tumbleweed (2022.03.01) Additionally the parameter program_usb_boot_mode=1 was applied to /boot/efi/config.txt followed by a reboot Both showed no effect, still no boot from USB possible. Any ideas what to try? Thanks Axel [1] https://en.opensuse.org/HCL:Raspberry_Pi4#From_a_running_system_on_the_RPi

I think there is a flag that you need to set within the firmware, some hexadecimal value that tells it to try USB first, then SD-Card and so on. I can try to find the link later, already a while ago I had to do that...

According to various sources on the INet this value is set with the parameter program_usb_boot_mode=1 and verified with vcgencmd otp_dump | grep 17: This command does not exist in openSUSE - anyone knows which to use instead?

Much appreciated, thanks Axel

Just boot a raspi-OS SD Card once and do the firmware-update / boot config from there ;-) -- Stefan Seyfried "For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled." -- Richard Feynman

Well, even that did not work as expected: I got the actual Raspian OS and tried echo program_usb_boot_mode=1 | sudo tee -a /boot/config.txt first - No boot from USB Next I found that sudo -E rpi-eeprom-config -e allows you to change the boot order as documented here [1] - note this works from a running openSUSE system as well! I set this to 0x3 (USB Boot), which was an unlucky choice, and ended up in a red and green LED lit permanently - and nothing more happening. Finally I used the rpi-imager to write a little SD card with the USB Bootloader....that worked. BOOT_ORDER=0xf14 is now set. I have adapted the Wiki accordingly.

Did you try it? And did it really work? It certainly does not for me. raspi3:~ # rpi-eeprom-config Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/rpi-eeprom-config", line 497, in <module> main() File "/usr/bin/rpi-eeprom-config", line 489, in main current_config, config_src = read_current_config() File "/usr/bin/rpi-eeprom-config", line 216, in read_current_config return (shell_cmd(['vcgencmd', 'bootloader_config']), "vcgencmd bootloader_config") File "/usr/bin/rpi-eeprom-config", line 109, in shell_cmd result = subprocess.Popen(args, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE) File "/usr/lib64/python3.8/subprocess.py", line 858, in __init__ self._execute_child(args, executable, preexec_fn, close_fds, File "/usr/lib64/python3.8/subprocess.py", line 1704, in _execute_child raise child_exception_type(errno_num, err_msg, err_filename) FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'vcgencmd' -- Stefan Seyfried "For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled." -- Richard Feynman

Would you mind to open a bug so that we can track that? Thanks! Matthias

https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1197645 I was assuming that the raspberrypi-userland stuff only works with downstream kernels (also due to its unavailability in non-forbidden repos ;-)) or I would have reported that earlier. -- Stefan Seyfried "For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled." -- Richard Feynman

Leap or tumbleweed? vcgencmd works on the TW raspi3 but fails on the Leap15.3 raspi400... But I still wonder how you manage to do this without vcgencmd installed...
Note I use a Raspi4
raspi400 in my case, which should be similar enough, I guess. -- Stefan Seyfried "For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled." -- Richard Feynman

Leap 15.3, in case you are interested: https://www.axxite.com/gnuhealth40-Leap15.3-XFCE-raspi4-20220326.img.xz

No idea, just tried.....

Yes, that should work a well (your prompt said 'Raspi3') Cheers Axel -- Dr.-Ing. Axel K.
