[fedora-arm] Hikey board (620) with Fedora 28 minimal cannot boot

Hi,

Today I am trying my HikeyBoard (620) with
Fedora-Minimal-28-1.1.aarch64.raw.xz. It simply cannot boot.

I confirmed the xz image has the same hash as is shown on the mirror. I
used the following command to write to my TF card.
xzcat Fedora-Minimal-28-1.1.aarch64.raw.xz | sudo dd status=progress
bs=4M of=/dev/mmcblk0

The system failed in dracut init queue timeout, with a warning "Warning:
/dev/disk/by-uuid/9a926ac9-5938-4539-bb79-72f87b36095f does not exist "

However I confirmed the uuid is right for my partition.

Besides, I cannot type anything via minicon to it so I cannot really
debug more right now. I am posting the last block of message via UART.

So anyone have some hints for this? Thanks in advance!

(P.S. Fedora 27 works fine on my hikey board).

Hey,

I experienced not booting SD card when I forgot to unmount the SD before
doing the dd command.
(especially when another OS was on it)
check mounts into /run/media/<username>

Thanks for the suggestion. However this is not my case. I don't have
any auto mount settings and I did not mount it before dd. I've tried
to dd again several times now but still no lucky.

Hi,
Today I am trying my HikeyBoard (620) with
Fedora-Minimal-28-1.1.aarch64.raw.xz. It simply cannot boot.

So, two quick questions. What firmware & version are you using, and have
you tried booting one of the installer images?
(I tend to use the server iso image, and have had a decent bit of luck
with it).

Thanks for the suggestions.

I believe I haven't updated firmware after Fedora 27 released. I'll try
the installer way later when I have some time.

I confirmed the xz image has the same hash as is shown on the mirror.
I. used the following command to write to my TF card.
xzcat Fedora-Minimal-28-1.1.aarch64.raw.xz | sudo dd status=progress
bs=4M of=/dev/mmcblk0
/dev/disk/by-uuid/9a926ac9-5938-4539-bb79-72f87b36095f does not exist "
However I confirmed the uuid is right for my partition.
Besides, I cannot type anything via minicon to it so I cannot really
debug more right now. I am posting the last block of message via UART.
So anyone have some hints for this? Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Post by Zamir SUN
Hi,
Today I am trying my HikeyBoard (620) with
Fedora-Minimal-28-1.1.aarch64.raw.xz. It simply cannot boot.

Thanks for the suggestions.
I believe I haven't updated firmware after Fedora 27 released. I'll try
the installer way later when I have some time.

Hi Jeremy,

I updated to the newest firmware on Linaro website[1]. But boot still
stuck in "EFI stub: Exiting boot services and installing virtual address
map...". I flashed the firmware from your github[2] and the dracut
timeout error is still there. I am posting the console log from the UART
here[3].

Addition note that might be useful:
1. The guide of flashing the firmware in[4] do not work for me. After
flashing l-loader.bin I cannot flash ptable-*.img(it just hang there
without any progress). When I see [5] I tried to flash the recovery.bin
first then it works.
2. I cannot type in anything using minicon after system boot to anaconda
text installer or dracut emergency shell. So I cannot install the system
myself or trying to get more logs. However I can edit the grub menu via
console, still not sure why.
3. I did not see anything special with earlycon=pl011,0xf7113000 configured.

[1] https://releases.linaro.org/96boards/hikey/linaro/binaries/latest/

[5]

So can you help with the second point (typing on console)? In that way I
can at least debug more myself.

Hi,
Just a quick note here, per IRC this morning in case someone finds this
but not that conversation.

Hi Jeremy,

That log looks suspiciously like the hi6220_reset driver being missing
from the initrd. Regenerating it with dracut --add-drivers
hi6220_reset.ko should may allow SD booting. I tested USB boot this
weekend and it works, so the problem seems isolated to SD at the moment.

This is likely an upstream edk2 bug. I've seen a couple patches for it,
and integrated the one from the linaro edk2 repo, but i'm guessing its
not working properly. To work around the problem pressing 'esc' during
the "...." boot, will exit to the UEFI BDS menus. From there simply
booting the device should allow you to interact with grub/etc as normal.
Starting the BDS seems to fix whatever is going wrong (although I didn't
mention you should double check that your not using XON/XOFF flow control).

Thanks for the fruitful info. Actually your firmware works fine. The
reason why I cannot type anything, as you mentioned, is because minicom
set Hardware Flow Control to YES. Now I can type in after setting it to NO.

And thanks for mentioning you are installing to USB stick. I just tried
installing to USB stick and it works(actually I installed to a Samsung
mSD card reader with my SD card inserted).

However, after I get it running, I tried to add "hi6220_reset" to dracut
config and regenerated the initramfs, then boot from SD (directly from
the board), and it still cannot boot. I copied the log out[6] in case it
is useful for development.

I also tried to install directly to the SD card, but it failed in
creating label on /dev/mmcblk1. I make the installer drop to shell and
did not see the mmcblk1 actually.

One more thing that worth mentioning, I tried to use another cheap mSD
reader to boot the system after installation, but it seems the cheap mSD
simply cannot boot. So I assume there are compatible issue there. The
mSD reader that don't work is
Bus 002 Device 018: ID 14cd:1212 Super Top microSD card reader (SY-T18)

HTH. Thanks again for your help!
