Bug#1036457: flash-kernel: please add BeagleBone AI-64 support
Package: flash-kernel
Version: 3.107
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-Cc: sascha-debian-bugs-flash-kernel-20230521@silbe.org
Dear Maintainer,
I successfully tested flash-kernel on a BeagleBone AI-64 running
Bookworm with the following entry in /etc/flash-kernel/db:
=== Begin ===
Machine: BeagleBoard.org BeagleBone AI-64
Kernel-Flavors: arm64
Boot-Script-Path: /boot/boot.scr
DTB-Id: ti/k3-j721e-beagleboneai64.dtb
U-Boot-Script-Name: bootscr.uboot-generic
Required-Packages: u-boot-tools
=== End ===
The Device Tree for BeagleBone AI-64 landed upstream in Linux
6.2. Since Bookworm ships with 6.1 I copied to DTB to
/etc/flash-kernel/dtbs.
U-Boot support is still getting upstreamed but stock U-Boot on eMMC
will boot a Debian installation from an SD card without any change to
the configuration so we don't need to wait for U-Boot support to land
and reach Debian before adding flash-kernel support.
Sascha
