i cant see any difference. Ok I think in hinsight this was a bad idea. I'm going to send you one
<peterm6881>
hindsight, for fuck sake
<Xogium>
want to know the best part? I didn't modify the boot script and all I did for kernel was to upgrade it
<peterm6881>
modify who's boot script?
<Xogium>
the u-boot boot script that it tried to run
<Xogium>
I haven't even touched it
<Xogium>
so, whatever this is, it comes from kernel. The again that boot script is absolutely not smart and loads kernel and device tree at precise location in the memory, and if they now end up overlapping that can do weird shit
<Xogium>
but, that is specific to u-boot, its so badly designed that everything you have to load from storage has to be placed in a region of the memory and you have to be careful it doesn't overla
<Xogium>
and take into account the fact that your kernel might very well get larger or smaller, and so can your device tree
<Xogium>
so if the device tree or kernel now overlap, one or the other is overriding part of the other in the memory… No wonder it leads to strange things happening
<Xogium>
I never liked u-boot for that sort of reason. It takes bad design decisions, it has awefull documentation that is lacking or obsolete, features that are often not even documented, and a very very very awefull community
