Features

  • both Rockchip proprietary USB protocol and fastboot USB protocol are supported (Rockchip USB tools works)
  • format of partitions (images) are compatible to Rockchip proprietary bootloader (rkcrc, mkbootimg works)
  • (need more investigation...)

For NAND flash

Build

Refer install toolchain if you don't have arm-eabi- on your system. Other toolchain(Linaro arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc 4.9) may cause data abort errors.

git clone -b u-boot-rk3188 https://github.com/radxa/u-boot-rockchip.git
cd u-boot-rockchip
make rk30xx

The binary we need for nand flash are RK3188Loader_miniall.bin and uboot.img.

Flash

refer flash image page

use the new u-boot to erase the old loader

   sudo upgrade_tool ef RK3188Loader_miniall.bin

flash new loader

   sudo upgrade_tool ul RK3188Loader_miniall.bin

format NAND (first time only)

   sudo upgrade_tool lf

flash parameter

   upgrade_tool di -p parameter

paramter file

flash U-Boot

   sudo upgrade_tool wl 0x2000 uboot.img
   sudo upgrade_tool rd

flash kernel + ramdisk

   upgrade_tool di -b boot-linux.img

flash root fs

   upgrade_tool di linuxroot rootfs.img

Booting log can be found at: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9623598/

For SD card

Build

Refer install toolchain if you don't have arm-eabi- on your system. Other toolchain(Linaro arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc 4.9) may cause data abort errors.

git clone -b u-boot-rk3188-sdcard https://github.com/radxa/u-boot-rockchip.git
cd u-boot-rockchip
make rk30xx
./pack-sd.sh

The binary we need for sdcard is u-boot-sd.img.

Flash

sudo dd if=u-boot-sd.img of=/dev/sdx seek=64

Insert the uSD card to rock pro, it will boot from u-boot on uSD card.
