When I do a reboot the Olimex Lime2-emmc shuts down. No more information is shown on the display.

 

This happens with the latest Armbian_5.31_Lime2_Debian_jessie_next_4.11.5 image from the website.

 

It also happens with a self-build image with u-boot v2017.07 and v2017.05

 

Any ideas? Or debugging directions? I am out of options after 2 days...

 

It's a problem within a U-boot ... we had similar problem with Cubieboard 1 but since upgrading to latest u-boot solved the issue, I didn't dig in further.

 

Edit: I would double check config: https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/patch/u-boot/u-boot-sunxi/add-lime2-emmc.patch#L35-L72,

 

Try with upstream Lime2 config and add the only important (?) diff: CONFIG_MMC_SUNXI_SLOT_EXTRA=2 to gain eMMC access

You pointed me in the right direction. A lime2 image without emmc works (with sd card of course).

 

I'll try to pinpoint the faulty code

 

edit: let me revoke that statement, it rebooted fine two times. After 10 minutes it failed...  

 

edit2: reflashed same image, rebooted once, after that powerdown again.   Any other options I can try?

Trials until this far:

 

Older Armbian_5.20_Lime2_Ubuntu_xenial_4.7.3 image: 

- rebooting works

- rebooting after unattended upgrade works

- rebooting after apt upgrade works once, no more thereafter

 

Older Armbian_5.24_Lime2_Ubuntu_xenial_next_4.9.5 image: 

- rebooting works

- apt-mark hold linux-u-boot-lime2-etc

- rebooting after apt upgrade works once, no more thereafter

 

Nighly Armbian_5.27.170614_Lime2_Ubuntu_xenial_next_4.11.4 image:

- rebooting does not work

 

Newest Armbian_5.31_Lime2_Ubuntu_xenial_next_4.11.5 image:

- rebooting does not work

Same here. reboot causes poweroff on lime2-emmc.
