Build everything from scratch

markwylde

Hello

I have a RK3399 Firefly and have wiped the eMMC (from offset 0 to the end) using the rkflashtool. Therefore I believe the eMMC is completly empty.

My end goal is to build everything from source, but until then I'm simply trying to get the RK3399 binaries to work.

STEP 1: Wipe everything on the eMMC

1. sudo rkflashtool e 0 1000000

Copy the code

STEP 2: Download the following files:

1. wget https://rawgit.com/rockchip-linux/rkbin/master/rk33/rk3399_ddr_666MHz_v1.08.bin
   
2. wget https://rawgit.com/rockchip-linux/rkbin/master/rk33/rk3399_miniloader_v1.06.bin
   
3. wget https://rawgit.com/rockchip-linux/rkbin/blob/master/img/rk3399/uboot.img
   
4. wget https://rawgit.com/rockchip-linux/rkbin/blob/master/img/rk3399/trust.img

Copy the code

STEP 3: Use mkimage tool and merge miniloader to generate idbloader.img

1. tools/mkimage -n rk3399 -T rksd -d rk3399_ddr_666MHz_v1.08.bin idbloader.img
   
2. cat rk3399_miniloader_v1.06.bin >> idbloader.img

Copy the code

STEP 4: Use flashtool to upload idbloader.img

1. sudo rkflashtool w 0x40 2000 < idbloader.img

Copy the code

STEP 5: Use flashtool to upload uboot.img

1. sudo rkflashtool w 0x4000 2000 < uboot.img

Copy the code

STEP 6: Use flashtool to upload trust.img

1. sudo rkflashtool w 0x6000 2000 < trust.img

Copy the code

Unfortunatly when I start restart the board my serial outputs:

1. DDR Version 1.07 20161103
   
2. In
   
3. Channel 0: DDR3, 666MHz
   
4. Bus Width=32 Col=10 Bank=8 Row=15/15 CS=2 Die Bus-Width=16 Size=2048MB
   
5. Channel 1: DDR3, 666MHz
   
6. Bus Width=32 Col=10 Bank=8 Row=15/15 CS=2 Die Bus-Width=16 Size=2048MB
   
7. 256B stride
   
8. ch 0 ddrconfig = 0x101, ddrsize = 0x2020
   
9. ch 1 ddrconfig = 0x101, ddrsize = 0x2020
   
10. pmugrf_os_reg[2] = 0x3AA17AA1, stride = 0xD
    
11. OUT
    
12. Boot1: 2016-07-29, version: 1.05
    
13. CPUId = 0x0
    
14. ChipType = 10 1836
    
15. SdmmcInit=2 0
    
16. BootCapSize=100000
    
17. UserCapSize=119276MB
    
18. FwPartOffset=2000 , 100000
    
19. SdmmcInit=0 20
    
20. StorageInit ok = 63256
    
21. LoadTrustBL
    
22. LoadTrustBL error:-1
    
23. powerOn 476773

Copy the code

I don't understand what the LoadTrustBL error means. Could it not find the trust img or was it corrupt?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

I personally recommend using rockchip u-boot instead of firefly u-boot.

First sync rockchip repos ...

@cb182d thank you so much for your help. It's now getting further and to uboot. Still not at the stage of getting linux to boot, but at least it's getting past the bootloader error to things I can manage.

I'll post my full steps from a blank eMMC to working linux when I have it recreatable.
