Hi,
I'm trying to run mainline u-boot on amlogic a96mini device but before I try to flash it does anybody have an idea if it will work on mainline. As I have limited number of devices and I know that after flashing I can brick the board so would like to ask if anybody have experience with this device and running mainline. Thanks and BR,
I would strongly recommend making https://github.com/superna9999/linux/wiki/Amlogic-HDMI-Boot-Dongle as a back-up. While I have before managed to interrupt a re-flash cycle such that the DTB on-board is still there and so the binary portions of the firmware are happy it will then load U-Boot from SD card. I did not play with mainline however.
