Greetings,
I'm using buildroot to generate images for the odroid c2 boards and from what I see, it uses u-boot.bin to burn into the image. I'm not seeing any other uboot product that is used for booting (unless I'm mistaken). I'm reading the odroid c2 readme file and I see it instructs the use to burn a alternative u-boot.bin from the one that was created by the env. I wonder how it is possible to actually use newer uboot when in the end uboot recommends to replace u-boot.bin with pre existing one?
From the spec I do see that C2 has SD card and eMMC.
I can only share my experience with Odroid XU3/U3.
The boot process would (probably) require some signed blobs from hardkernel (those binaries are corresponding to u-boot-spl.bin).
I can recommend looking to Hardkernel forum (they should have some topics dedicated for this SoM), or look for tizen.org wiki:
https://wiki.tizen.org/Quick_guide_for_odroidxu3
I hope, that the boot flow is similar for XU3 and C2.
Thanks,

indeed that is correct, the c2 has a singed binary. as said in my mail, I'm using buildroot to create my images, at the end buildroot takes the file u-boot.bin and burn it into the image at a specific location. the c2 readme explains how to extract the signed blob but I'd expect that it will overwrite part of the u-boot.bin file and no replace it. so I assume I'm missing a part. e.g. u-boot.bin isn't the only file needed from u-boot. am I correct?
Thanks.
