| 00:19.20 | marvinstuart | Hey anyone want a cubicboard still new is box will ship to US ONLY |
| 00:28.37 | buZz | bored with it? |
| 00:28.42 | buZz | got something better? |
| 00:28.46 | buZz | what did you get marvinstuart ? |

| 00:30.42 | marvinstuart | Got something better |
| 00:31.11 | marvinstuart | I got the ODROID-x2 |
| 00:31.35 | marvinstuart | I have not even opened the box yet |
| 00:31.48 | buZz | ah nice |
| 00:31.57 | buZz | i've been eying the odroid aswell |
| 00:32.12 | buZz | but think i will wait until hardkernel makes an odroid with exynos 5 octo |
| 00:32.37 | marvinstuart | Yeah but could wait so got the X2 |
| 00:32.47 | marvinstuart | It's really fast |
| 00:33.10 | marvinstuart | Couldnt |
| 00:36.33 | buZz | imagined you are one without patience |
| 00:36.41 | buZz | having bought a cubie and odroid |
| 00:36.48 | buZz | and not even having opened either ;) |
| 00:36.50 | buZz | or used :D |
| 00:37.03 | buZz | o you did use odroid |

| 01:48.39 | swivelgames | Hey guys |
| 01:55.54 | lawrence_ | y |
| 01:56.05 | TheSeven | lawrence_: I finally managed to build a really recent uboot with ethernet and everything + nand, which is taking away just 512KB from your NAND space |
| 01:56.17 | TheSeven | and it loads the kernel from /boot/uImage on the ext4 partition :) |
| 01:56.38 | TheSeven | also supports /boot/uEnv.txt and /boot/boot.scr on ext4 |
| 01:56.52 | lawrence_ | and you're going to save me the work and email it to me like i asked, right? |
| 01:57.02 | lawrence_ | and you aligned it also, as nand need that |
| 01:57.29 | TheSeven | 4KB partition table + 508KB FAT12 partition :) |
| 01:57.39 | TheSeven | so the ext4 partition is 512K aligned |
| 01:58.05 | *** join/#cubieboard qleelulu (~qleelulu@218.20.47.5) |
| 01:58.15 | lawrence_ | and you emailed it to me? |
| 01:58.18 | TheSeven | not yet |
| 01:58.20 | lawrence_ | i don't see it in my inbox |
| 01:58.23 | TheSeven | capturing it off my board this very moment |
| 01:58.30 | lawrence_ | dankie. |
| 01:59.04 | lawrence_ | git up the source changes too |

| 02:01.01 | lawrence_ | i'm getting the exceedingly fast 800bytes a second |
| 02:01.13 | lawrence_ | are they hosting that on a pi? |
| 02:01.18 | lawrence_ | ;) |
| 02:07.15 | TheSeven | https://github.com/TheSeven/u-boot-sunxi |
| 02:07.59 | TheSeven | lawrence_: just dd that image to /dev/nand and reboot, then mkfs.ext4 /dev/nandb and put a /boot/uImage in there :) |
| 02:08.28 | lawrence_ | hmm |
| 02:08.49 | lawrence_ | i was using the chainload method |
| 02:09.02 | lawrence_ | eg nanda stick uboot in /dev/nanda/linux |
| 02:09.09 | lawrence_ | nandb -> rootfs |
| 02:09.17 | TheSeven | yeah, I'm doing that as well |
| 02:09.28 | lawrence_ | then why dd image to /dev/nand |
| 02:09.31 | TheSeven | the image contains boot.axf and all that crap as well as uboot |
| 02:09.55 | TheSeven | because it also contains a nand partition table to do away with all the android mess |
| 02:10.23 | lawrence_ | i need to change my instructions |
| 02:10.24 | lawrence_ | grr |
| 02:10.43 | TheSeven | well this is about the simplest you can get I think? |
| 02:10.56 | lawrence_ | simplest is just copy the uboot to the folder |
| 02:11.00 | lawrence_ | and a kernel |
| 02:11.04 | lawrence_ | really |
| 02:11.17 | lawrence_ | now i have to mount the thing rip that out |
| 02:11.20 | lawrence_ | then reupload |
| 02:11.29 | pirea | TheSeven where is that image? |
| 02:11.42 | TheSeven | cp image.bin /dev/nand, reboot, mount /dev/nandb /mnt, copy whatever you want in there |
| 02:11.53 | TheSeven | tell me an easier approach :) |
| 02:12.09 | TheSeven | pirea: https://portal.bitcasa.com/download-send/7a0189938281a70bb6a98d0da7df8a4050abf6120a2291ac6ae8ffaf7e6d0a94/65e798cbfa7be6ad3a9a9aa54e11185f03beff56936b590389a92a4acd5a6e07/cubie_nand_uboot_image.bin |
| 02:12.24 | lawrence_ | its about redoing instructions |
| 02:12.33 | lawrence_ | if i document 1 method i need to stick to that method |
| 02:12.48 | lawrence_ | then i can make a heres a premade nand partition method version using yours |
| 02:12.51 | TheSeven | one problem may be that this image might contain a mac address |
| 02:13.01 | TheSeven | but sure, you can also just grab the uboot from it |
| 02:13.16 | lawrence_ | yes, but i need to do that first |
| 02:13.36 | lawrence_ | and then re-upload |
| 02:13.45 | lawrence_ | just adds marginally more work |
| 02:13.52 | pirea | TheSeven what contain that image? |
| 02:13.55 | lawrence_ | why am i griping |
| 02:14.07 | lawrence_ | you did do the uboot while i was sleeping |
| 02:14.11 | lawrence_ | saved me time |
| 02:14.13 | lawrence_ | i shut up |
| 02:14.13 | TheSeven | uboot.bin: https://portal.bitcasa.com/download-send/e0de7b9b9b6b276bbc40697fbb2b05aacb343d3822db53b45dd925eb8e5631f8/d22bfd730967bd44b40caacf6ba9010dbfb532741a7215299ca4ed7d0f14ce08/u-boot.bin |
| 02:14.35 | pirea | ok |
| 02:14.52 | pirea | so... after i dd the image to the nand |
| 02:15.07 | TheSeven | pirea: the image contains a nand partition table (to remove the android partitions), and a minimal FAT12 partition containing boot.axf and uboot |
| 02:15.31 | pirea | TheSeven you are GOD :) |
| 02:15.34 | TheSeven | everything else (uEnv.txt, uImage, ...) is loaded from the second partition (/dev/nandb) which is ext4 |
| 02:15.59 | TheSeven | put it there as /boot/uEnv.txt or /boot/uImage or /boot/boot.scr |
| 02:16.28 | TheSeven | uboot source is at https://github.com/TheSeven/u-boot-sunxi |
| 02:16.32 | pirea | TheSeven i don't need to modify something in that partition? |
| 02:16.43 | pirea | work's with cubieboard? |
| 02:16.58 | TheSeven | it's based on linux-sunxi's uboot, with hno's patches pulled (for ethernet support), and nand support ported over from lichee-dev |
| 02:17.15 | TheSeven | yes, I developed it on a cubie |
| 02:17.35 | lawrence_ | theseven, can you just ship me the uboot.bin |
| 02:17.37 | TheSeven | and you don't need to modify the image before flashing it if you don't care about possible duplicate mac addresses |
| 02:17.43 | lawrence_ | not the whole thing thx |
| 02:17.50 | TheSeven | [03:14:12] <TheSeven> uboot.bin: https://portal.bitcasa.com/download-send/e0de7b9b9b6b276bbc40697fbb2b05aacb343d3822db53b45dd925eb8e5631f8/d22bfd730967bd44b40caacf6ba9010dbfb532741a7215299ca4ed7d0f14ce08/u-boot.bin |
| 02:18.02 | lawrence_ | thx |
| 02:18.14 | lawrence_ | trying to avoid reflashing mine just right now |
| 02:18.23 | lawrence_ | as mine just needs a new uboot is all |
| 02:19.42 | lawrence_ | thx |
| 02:20.36 | pirea | TheSeven stay here please. if i recive some problems i will need you |
| 02:20.43 | TheSeven | :) |
| 02:21.04 | TheSeven | remember to make a backup of /dev/nanda first before flashing anything :) |
| 02:23.16 | lawrence_ | your uboot she no work for me |
| 02:23.31 | lawrence_ | just rechecking though, as i do find the nand driver doesn't block on writes |
| 02:23.45 | lawrence_ | so maybe wasnt finished when i rebooted |
| 02:23.52 | TheSeven | "not working" as in what? |
| 02:24.27 | pirea | TheSeven dd if=cubie.bin of=/dev/nand |
| 02:24.29 | pirea | corect? |
| 02:24.45 | TheSeven | after making a backup, yes :) |
| 02:25.06 | lawrence_ | wrong image format for bootm |
| 02:25.18 | lawrence_ | ah, you moved stuff to /boot now |
| 02:25.40 | pirea | TheSeven now i am making the backup |
| 02:26.08 | pirea | cubie_nand*.bin have only 524.3 kb? :O |
| 02:27.08 | TheSeven | yes |
| 02:27.25 | TheSeven | it's just the partition table and uboot, no kernel or anything |
| 02:27.35 | TheSeven | that stuff all goes into the second partition, which will be your ext4 rootfs |
| 02:29.07 | lawrence_ | q |
| 02:29.23 | lawrence_ | . /dev/nandb -> uImage |
| 02:29.31 | lawrence_ | and rootfs, right? |
| 02:29.39 | lawrence_ | no further nand partitions? |
| 02:29.52 | pirea | TheSeven kernel must be in /dev/nandb |
| 02:29.56 | TheSeven | no further partitions, that's why it's in /boot |
| 02:29.58 | pirea | /boot/uImage right? |
| 02:30.26 | lawrence_ | i'm going to use patricks one |
| 02:30.29 | lawrence_ | blech |
| 02:30.32 | TheSeven | pirea: after flashing the image to /dev/nand you need to reboot to make the new partition table take effect, then mkfs.ext4 /dev/nandb, mount it, and put the kernel in there as /boot/uImage |
| 02:30.37 | lawrence_ | then make newer instructions for thesevens one |
| 02:30.41 | lawrence_ | as he's changed too much |
| 02:31.02 | lawrence_ | i really thing you ought to have kept the nanda as uboot+kernel |
| 02:31.09 | lawrence_ | just as *everything else* so far do |
| 02:31.14 | lawrence_ | it that way |
| 02:31.34 | TheSeven | lawrence_: you can do that by putting a uEnv.txt into /dev/nanda which tells uboot what to do |
| 02:31.58 | lawrence_ | yeah |
| 02:32.22 | lawrence_ | i know, but its now i need to make many changes to instructions vs stick in uboot.bin |
| 02:32.23 | TheSeven | it will look for that at both /uEnv.txt in nanda, and /boot/uEnv.txt in nandb |
| 02:32.37 | lawrence_ | i'm just whining, don't worry too much ;) |
| 02:32.43 | TheSeven | feel free to change it :) |
| 02:32.51 | lawrence_ | i just woke up |

| 02:38.57 | lawrence_ | thesevens won't help swivelgames though |
| 02:39.34 | TheSeven | why that? |
| 02:42.51 | lawrence_ | as he's a13 |
| 02:42.57 | lawrence_ | and he needs to keep his other files |
| 02:43.09 | lawrence_ | and wiping his boot partition will make his non-bootable |

| 02:48.34 | lawrence_ | at block 0 |
| 02:50.18 | TheSeven | the nand is hiding much more away |
| 02:50.57 | TheSeven | but I guess he meant he wants an IMAGE of all nand memory :) |
| 02:51.09 | pirea | yes :) |
| 02:51.24 | pirea | i want an image of ALL NAND MEMORY FROM CUBIEBOARD |
| 02:51.27 | pirea | oringinal image |
| 02:52.39 | swivelgames | Hey guys. How's it going? |
| 02:53.10 | lawrence_ | i didn't bother saving it pirea |
| 02:53.27 | lawrence_ | and i currently dont get access to "all" |
| 02:53.42 | lawrence_ | hi swivel |
| 02:53.48 | lawrence_ | don't use thesevens image |
| 02:53.52 | lawrence_ | as you're not cubieboard |
| 02:53.58 | lawrence_ | if you were, i would :) |
| 02:54.06 | lawrence_ | did you try the uboot etc method i laid out last night? |
| 02:54.25 | lawrence_ | theseven - your image /dev/nandb contains a boot folder already or not? |
| 02:54.37 | TheSeven | my image doesn't contain /dev/nandb |
| 02:54.47 | TheSeven | just the partition table and /dev/nanda |
| 02:55.01 | TheSeven | so you flash my image, reboot, and then mkfs.ext4 /dev/nandb and mount it |
| 02:57.02 | lawrence_ | http://www.cubieforums.com/index.php/topic,73.msg235.html#msg235 |
| 02:57.04 | lawrence_ | that seem correct |
| 02:57.09 | lawrence_ | i can try later, just not now |
| 02:58.27 | pirea | TheSeven u-boot are searching uEnv.txt in /boot/uEnv.txt from nandb? |
| 02:58.54 | lawrence_ | swivel - if you're just trying to flash that |
| 02:59.31 | lawrence_ | did you try dd if=sun5ilongnamei'mnottyping.img of=/dev/nand ? |
| 03:00.49 | lawrence_ | if not, give it a look with http://www.cubieforums.com/index.php/topic,19.0.html |
| 03:00.54 | lawrence_ | and see what partitions are on it |
| 03:01.03 | lawrence_ | worst case, you recreate them all |
| 03:01.12 | lawrence_ | and dd=if of each one |
| 03:01.27 | lawrence_ | assuming its not a nand image |
| 03:01.39 | lawrence_ | make sense? |
| 03:02.04 | TheSeven | lawrence_: looks good except for mkdir /tmp/boot/boot which should probably be /mnt/boot |
| 03:02.36 | lawrence_ | yup |
| 03:02.41 | lawrence_ | it totally should |
| 03:03.34 | pirea | TheSeven is working |
| 03:03.44 | lawrence_ | amended |
| 03:03.48 | lawrence_ | http://www.cubieforums.com/index.php/topic,73.msg235.html#msg235 |
| 03:04.15 | lawrence_ | pirea - the nand we can access is not mtd level |
| 03:04.24 | lawrence_ | so the boot0/1 etc is hidden from us |
| 03:04.47 | lawrence_ | so we can't fix those to use the uboot.bin directly, needs to chainload via the boot.axf |
| 03:05.11 | lawrence_ | i still need to look via the uboot if the nand is readable or not |
| 03:05.18 | lawrence_ | did you check that theseven? |
| 03:06.09 | TheSeven | well the nand access commands didn't work out of the box, but it should be fairly easy to patch up an uboot to allow that |
| 03:06.54 | pirea | TheSeven nandb partition have 3.8 gb? |
| 03:07.04 | TheSeven | yes |
| 03:07.11 | pirea | why not 4? |
| 03:07.17 | lawrence_ | <PROTECTED> |
| 03:07.23 | TheSeven | because we lose the rest to the FTL |
| 03:07.28 | lawrence_ | that ok for you theseven? |
| 03:08.33 | TheSeven | looks good |

| 03:14.33 | TheSeven | which brings this down to 3.8GiB, just like with most other flash media (think thumb drives, SSDs, ...) |
| 03:14.45 | TheSeven | oh, and sd cards of course |
| 03:16.22 | lawrence_ | of which i'm already down one as one died |
| 03:16.32 | lawrence_ | although i lose more of the damn things to size |
| 03:16.40 | lawrence_ | (as in where is it) |
| 03:16.54 | TheSeven | my cubie nand has 2 bad blocks already |
| 03:17.35 | lawrence_ | mine are < 2 weeks old |
| 03:17.43 | lawrence_ | gonna send that one back to newegg |
| 03:18.06 | lawrence_ | next time they bring stuff to office |
| 03:18.12 | lawrence_ | which is more or less daily |
| 03:18.20 | rvalles | and sata harddisks... |
| 03:18.35 | TheSeven | rvalles: those don't do wear leveling :P |
| 03:18.39 | rvalles | the cubie pretty much begs a sata hd |
| 03:18.47 | lawrence_ | not at all |
| 03:18.52 | lawrence_ | 4g is *plenty* |
| 03:18.57 | rvalles | yeah |
| 03:19.01 | TheSeven | plenty slow :P |
| 03:19.07 | rvalles | but what I meant is that most cheap boards don't have such feature |
| 03:19.13 | rvalles | even expensive boards dont |
| 03:19.35 | TheSeven | I really wonder why the other A10 boards don't have sata |
| 03:19.36 | rvalles | it's nice the A10 has a SATA controller and the cubie exposes it |
| 03:19.37 | lawrence_ | today i can recompile kernel again then stick in my "hardware" and test |
| 03:19.44 | rvalles | TheSeven: sillyness. |
| 03:20.06 | rvalles | TheSeven: and it gets worse yet. |
| 03:20.08 | lawrence_ | and then start looking at pcb design and layout for jamma w/a10 |
| 03:20.20 | rvalles | the A20 or whatever the pin compatible thingy based on dualcore A7 is... doesn't have SATA either |
| 03:20.27 | lawrence_ | as the software is 80% done, and i should get hardware io tested today |
| 03:20.30 | lawrence_ | :) |
| 03:20.32 | rvalles | in pretty bad taste from them imho |
| 03:21.04 | rvalles | what are they thinking? if they're updating the A10 while keeping pin compat, don't go and remove A10's distinctive features such as sata. |
| 03:21.13 | lawrence_ | 55nm process, not enough space on there… probably |
| 03:21.30 | lawrence_ | at a guess |
| 03:21.36 | rvalles | they do have a quad-core variant with crapVR gpu |
| 03:22.02 | rvalles | if they can do that, then they can fit SATA in the dual-core A10-like version |
| 03:22.28 | swivelgames | I did an fdisk on the image... it seems to only have four partitions, instead of 9 like mine currently has... |
| 03:22.51 | rvalles | might not be a bad thing |
| 03:22.54 | lawrence_ | extract them anyway somewhere |
| 03:22.56 | rvalles | 9 sounds very complicator. |
| 03:22.59 | lawrence_ | and take a look |
| 03:23.03 | swivelgames | rvalles, it's android |
| 03:23.03 | lawrence_ | 9 is android defaults i think |
| 03:23.04 | lawrence_ | or 11 |
| 03:23.17 | swivelgames | 9 is android default, indeed |
| 03:23.21 | rvalles | ah ok |
| 03:23.26 | rvalles | android's silly indeed. |
| 03:23.31 | lawrence_ | si |
| 03:23.35 | TheSeven | swivelgames: fdisk doesn't understand the partition table format used by allwinner |
| 03:23.56 | lawrence_ | well, the android partitions anyway |
| 03:24.11 | swivelgames | TheSeven, lawrence_, so it seems. |
| 03:24.16 | lawrence_ | see patricks comment on the rather long ass post swivel + I extended into a book ;) |
| 03:24.24 | rvalles | is there even a standard for partitions on mtd? |
| 03:24.37 | rvalles | I'm used to seeing partitioning info hardcoded in kernels |
| 03:24.43 | rvalles | and uboots and such |
| 03:24.50 | swivelgames | lawrence_, I'll need a vm to extract it, won't I? :S |
| 03:24.59 | lawrence_ | you'll need an OS |
| 03:25.10 | lawrence_ | win* doesn't count as an os |
| 03:25.11 | lawrence_ | ;) |
| 03:25.22 | lawrence_ | and OSx don't play ext* nicely |
| 03:25.33 | lawrence_ | so a living breathing *nux/*nix |
| 03:25.47 | rvalles | *n?x |
| 03:26.01 | lawrence_ | *n?x indeed |
| 03:26.23 | lawrence_ | ok, off to the office for moi. |
| 03:26.25 | lawrence_ | 88 |
| 03:26.38 | pirea | lawrence_ boot0/1 is writed to the nand? |
| 03:26.39 | rvalles | you'd probably be fine with #?iga#?S too |
| 03:26.51 | rvalles | but definitely not hasefroch |
| 03:27.32 | pirea | TheSeven are you here? |
| 03:28.34 | pirea | TheSeven boot0/1 is writed to the nand? |
| 03:29.05 | TheSeven | it is on the nand chip, but not accessible through /dev/nand |
| 03:29.48 | *** join/#cubieboard Avernos (~avernos@unaffiliated/avernos) |
| 03:29.55 | rvalles | is there a way to access it at all, TheSeven? or only through hardware? |
| 03:30.21 | TheSeven | there will be ways, but no easily accessible ones |
| 03:30.33 | TheSeven | easiest is probably to patch a linux kernel or uboot to allow that kind of access |
| 03:30.53 | rvalles | what does nand look like from uboot pov? |
| 03:31.11 | rvalles | it's not accesable like memory I guess? |
| 03:31.44 | rvalles | just using uboot to dump and write at nand is what I'm used to from other platforms. |
| 03:35.03 | TheSeven | rvalles: it isn't exposed through uboot's nand interface |
| 03:35.35 | TheSeven | instead they have this FTL layer in between which hijacks calls into the nand api |
| 03:35.38 | TheSeven | really weird shit |
| 03:35.48 | pirea | TheSeven if the type of partition table from nand is mbr and the first partition in named nand1 |
| 03:35.58 | pirea | cubieboard can't boot, right? |
| 03:36.14 | TheSeven | it doesn't understand MBR partition tables |
| 03:37.24 | pirea | TheSeven but can understand ext4 file system? |
| 03:38.45 | rvalles | could but probably doesn't |
| 03:39.14 | rvalles | a typical setup with this sort of thing |
| 03:39.23 | rvalles | is that uboot doesn't know shit |
| 03:39.31 | pirea | TheSeven boot.scr must be in the same directory with the uEnv.txt? |
| 03:39.31 | TheSeven | uboot understands ext4, not the allwinner bootrom |
| 03:39.34 | rvalles | it does however have a script |
| 03:39.39 | TheSeven | which is why my image contains a tiny fat12 partition |
| 03:39.58 | TheSeven | you usually have either uenv.txt or boot.scr, usually not both |
| 03:40.07 | rvalles | that says to load the kernel from an offset to some ram position |
| 03:40.18 | rvalles | and then jump to it |
| 03:40.37 | rvalles | the uboot we use understands fat, though |
| 03:40.44 | rvalles | which is pretty nice |
| 03:42.44 | pirea | TheSeven so where must be placed boot.scr ? |
| 03:43.18 | TheSeven | /boot/boot.scr on the ext4 root partition |
| 03:43.45 | rvalles | TheSeven: /boot not on its own partition? :O |
| 03:43.51 | TheSeven | nope |
| 03:44.02 | TheSeven | my uboot can read ext4 :) |
| 03:44.29 | rvalles | probably best call it mboot |

| 03:45.17 | rvalles | not that I can complain... with 4GB nand, having a good uboot makes sense :) |

| 23:22.50 | dongs | ok so, how come uboot on SD card isn't reading (as far as I can tell) my script.bin |
| 23:23.41 | [7] | dongs: what commands are you feeding to it? |
| 23:23.53 | dongs | i dont know - defaults. |
| 23:24.11 | dongs | where can I tell? |
| 23:24.14 | dongs | i'm at uboot prompt. |
| 23:24.30 | dongs | U-Boot 2012.07-g16f3301-dirty (Oct 05 2012 - 21:16:37) Allwinner Technology |
| 23:24.31 | [7] | printenv |
| 23:24.44 | dongs | and which var am i looking for |
| 23:24.52 | [7] | just pastebin it all |

| 23:25.08 | dongs | http://bcas.tv/paste/results/j6Gmdf68.html |
| 23:25.59 | [7] | interesting |
| 23:26.19 | Turl | it's running load1 so it's load1=fatload mmc 0 43000000 evb.bin |
| 23:26.23 | Turl | evb.bin, not script.bin |
| 23:26.53 | dongs | oops |
| 23:26.56 | dongs | so i gotta rename? |
| 23:27.06 | Turl | yeah, or fix your env |
| 23:27.08 | [7] | either that, or fix it |
| 23:27.26 | dongs | does it affect anything else? |
| 23:28.22 | dongs | do i just setenv load1=blah? |
| 23:28.43 | [7] | depending on where the env comes from that might be volatile |
| 23:28.54 | [7] | renaming the script will be easiest |
| 23:29.20 | dongs | this is just default shit @ bootable sd card. |
| 23:29.26 | dongs | ok lets see |
| 23:29.38 | dongs | man why no reset buton on this thing |
| 23:29.50 | dongs | ok, reset @ cmdline works. |
| 23:31.19 | dongs | rebooting. |
| 23:31.41 | dongs | still boots so thats a good sign |
| 23:32.37 | dongs | and i have usb port power |
| 23:32.38 | dongs | which didnt work before. |
| 23:32.41 | dongs | ok, so its good. |
| 23:32.42 | dongs | thanks. |
