So – I have reverted to 3.8.13.18 again, for the time being!\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Fortunately, I was able to run fsck<\/em> against the USB stick, to fix the (several!) errors..\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 So – I would not<\/span> recommend trying this, for the time being!<\/p>\n

Finally found the correct info for loading the ‘device tree’ 3.13 kernel for the Odroid U3<\/strong> – from http:\/\/git.prahal.homelinux.net\/odroid.git\/tree\/refs\/heads\/odroid_G9<\/a>.<\/p>\n
Most of the up-to-date (device tree) kernel boot instruction examples I found were for the XU model, and didn’t work for the U2\/U3, but I finally found a combined zImage-with-dtb set of instructions, that actually worked, to produce the boot image, as follows:<\/p>\n
Compile the kernel \/ zImage \/ dtbs \/ modules etc., and then:\r\ncat arch\/arm\/boot\/zImage arch\/arm\/boot\/dts\/exynos4412-odroidu2.dtb > \/boot\/uboot\/zImage_w_dtb<\/strong><\/pre>\n
Then make a boot.scr image from the following boot.txt:<\/p>\n
setenv initrd_high \"0xffffffff\"<\/strong>\r\nsetenv fdt_high \"0xffffffff\"<\/strong>\r\nsetenv fb_x_res \"1920\"<\/strong>\r\nsetenv fb_y_res \"1080\"<\/strong>\r\nsetenv hdmi_phy_res \"1080\"<\/strong>\r\nsetenv bootargs \"console=tty1 console=ttySAC1,115200n8 fb_x_res=${fb_x_res} fb_y_res=${fb_y_res} hdmi_phy_res=${hdmi_phy_res} root=\/dev\/sda1 rootwait rw mem=2047M\"<\/strong>\r\nsetenv bootcmd \"fatload mmc 0:1 0x40008000 zImage_w_dtb; bootm 0x40008000\"<\/strong>\r\nboot<\/strong><\/pre>\n
And the result:<\/p>\n
Fedora release 20 (Heisenbug)<\/strong>\r\nKernel 3.13.0 on an armv7l (ttySAC1)<\/strong>\r\n................<\/strong>\r\n# uname -a<\/strong>\r\nLinux rgodroid 3.13.0 #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Feb 19 21:24:15 GMT 2014 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU\/Linux<\/strong><\/pre>\n
The Odroid u-boot should<\/span> be capable of loading the zImage and dtb separately, but I cannot – so far – find any details on how to do this for the U2\/U3..<\/p>\n
Thanks are due to Alban Browaeys<\/strong>, for all his work on producing this kernel version – patched for the Odroid U2\/U3, and to the folks at ArchLinux<\/strong>, for the original boot.txt example I used as a starting point..<\/p>\n
