Does anyone have an uptodate or older u-boot image for the BananaPi-M7 or Sige7 if that will work please ?
The mainline U-Boot should already be compatible with booting SIG/GE7. You can find the Rockchip U-Boot here: GitHub - ArmSoM/u-boot
For long-term development needs, you can use our BSP: GitHub - ArmSoM/manifests: ARMSOM series board source code repository
Here is the documentation: 1. ArmSom-SDK Release | ArmSoM docs
We will maintain this service long-term. Please feel free to provide any feedback.

Hi Lou,
Do you have an existing built u-boot image for the BananaPi-M7 ?
I am wondering if it would be possible to add a GitHub build action and releases ? I could help with this if needed.

@luo I have got to :- 4.2 Update Individual Source Code Repositories Using Git
cd debain12
debian is spelt wrong ! Correcting this
cd debian12
Next … I am getting
aaronngray@ubuntu:~/armsom-sdk$ cd debian12
aaronngray@ubuntu:~/armsom-sdk/debian12$ # Checkout to corresponding repository's default branch
git checkout lbc-develop-5.10
# Pull git repository
git pull

ls .git is giving :-

branches description HEAD index logs packed-refs rr-cache
config FETCH_HEAD hooks info objects refs shallow
I am confused as .git directory is a link :-
aaronngray@ubuntu:~/armsom-sdk/debian12$ ls -al .git
lrwxrwxrwx 1 aaronngray aaronngray 30 Dec 30 15:15 .git -> ../.repo/projects/debian12.git
Even trying :-
aaronngray@ubuntu:~/armsom-sdk/debian12$ git clone --bare ../.repo/projects/debian12.git

I am getting no branch !
My setup :-
aaronngray@ubuntu:~/armsom-sdk/debian12$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS
Release: 24.04
Codename: noble
aaronngray@ubuntu:~/armsom-sdk/debian12$ git --version
git version 2.43.0
I overwrite Debian12 with :-
git clone https://github.com/ArmSoM/debian12.git
Ran
./build.sh armsom-sige7_rk3588_debian_xfce_linux6.1_defconfig
./build.sh uboot asked me to install Python 2 :-
wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.18/Python-2.7.18.tgz
tar xf Python-2.7.18.tgz
cd Python-2.7.18
sudo apt-get install libsqlite3-dev
./configure --enable-optimizations
sudo make install -j8
./build.sh uboot
./build debian did not work it asked me to install :-
sudo apt-get remove live-build
git clone https://salsa.debian.org/live-team/live-build.git --depth 1 -b debian/1%20230131
and build
cd live-build
rm -rf manpages/po/
sudo make install -j8
cd ..
./build.sh debian
built
I have the following which is what I think I need to create a mmcblk0 bootstrap for booting NVMe :-
aaronngray@ubuntu:~/armsom-sdk$ ls output/firmware
MiniLoaderAll.bin rootfs.img uboot.img
Are there any instructions for burning them to the mmcblk0 eMMC flash please ?
It would be good to get this corrected and make it as a GitHub Action generating releases on any updates.
./build.sh armsom-sige7_rk3588_debian_xfce_linux6.1_defconfig After executing this command, it is best to execute it /Build. sh to generate complete firmware, and then consider compiling partitions
