[11:53:15] <norton> i thought I need script.bin script.fex
[11:53:38] <norton> but TIL that on mainline kernels it no longer works like that and they use .dtb instead...
[11:54:14] <norton> boot.cmd config-5.10.0-26-armmp System.map-5.10.0-26-armmp
[11:54:14] <norton> boot.scr initrd.img-5.10.0-26-armmp vmlinuz-5.10.0-26-armmp
[11:54:37] <norton> that's what I have on /boot partition from ready-to-go sd card mainline Debian 11 image
[11:54:44] <norton> i don't see .dtb here
[11:55:20] <norton> I got the image from here: https://images.olimex.com/release/a20/
[11:59:56] <norton> i checked boot.cmd. there's no mention of .dtb too
[12:01:15] <norton> oh wait. these are files from https://sd-card-images.johang.se/boards/a20_olinuxino_micro.html
[12:01:16] <norton> sorry
[12:02:28] <norton> olimage doesn't have them too.
[12:03:20] <norton> boot.cmd boot.scr config-5.10.180-olimex initrd.img-5.10.180-olimex kernel.itb kernel.its System.map-5.10.180-olimex uEnv.txt vmlinuz-5.10.180-olimex
[12:03:26] <norton> these are the files on olimage /boot
[15:03:11] <clarity> norton: kernel.itb contains fdts
[17:35:21] <nedko> norton: yes, flattened device tree is sunxi, mainline is dts, dtb and the overlays (dtbi or something)
[17:58:41] <norton> what does it mean
[17:59:01] <norton> i don't have dts, dtb or "overlays" in my system as you see
[18:28:58] <nedko> norton: i think these are the dts source: https://github.com/OLIMEX/olinuxino-overlays/tree/master/sun7i-a20
[19:39:30] <norton> i'm not sure what to do now...
[19:39:43] <norton> i tried this https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebianOn/Allwinner#Mainline_kernel_and_linux-sunxi.org_3.4_kernel
[19:41:09] <norton> And I could install only debian 12, which is too heavy for a20 micro I think, it lags and eventually kernel panics
[19:42:01] <norton> and debian 11, 10 - no luck. wrote to #debian-arm and i get no response. idk what to do. what I want to do is install debian on ssd and have working gpio and sound without kernel panics...
[19:42:20] <norton> "I have Olimex Olinuxino A20 MICRO. I decided to use official way of installing debian on Allwinner PCs. I'm currently booted into the debian installer. failing on step "load installer components from an installer ISO". setup i have: bootloader and debian installer on micro sd card. usb stick formatted with FAT32, containing debian 11 netinst armhf .iso file. "
[19:42:31] <norton> debian installer says "failed to copy iso from drive" or something like that
[19:42:45] <norton> debian 12 installs succesfully
