Cross posting here, but these are important changes and new uboot support.
Plus that update-uboot sounds like something we can use here...
-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [fedora-arm] Fedora 29 new U-Boot/arm-trusted-firmware and Raspberry Pi firmware heads up Date: Fri, 7 Sep 2018 10:32:24 +0100 From: Peter Robinson pbrobinson@gmail.com To: arm@lists.fedoraproject.org
Hi All,
There's a new update headed to testing for Fedora 29. It makes some adjustments to how we handle a few things, in particular the Raspberry Pi firmware:
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2018-56bc88dfb2
I don't expect anyone to see anything issues in particular especially for the vast majority of people that just use a SD card or HDD with their ARM device but there might be some corner cases for people with slightly more esoteric setups when they upgrade. If anyone sees any issues please open a bug [1] or reply to this or reach out on #fedora-arm. The change has been in rawhide for a little while and I've not seen any fall out there.
Also the new U-Boot will have some slight improvements for those running AllWinner 64 bit devices as we've moved to the upstream ARM trusted firmware. It's just a snapshot at the moment but the previous fork was quite old and had it's issues on certain devices so I expect this to be an overall win for people there, but again I can't test everything so if anyone sees issues please reach out.
All please add karma to the above update when you do test it. People can update U-Boot on a running system with the update-uboot command with similar syntax to arm-image-installer.
Peter
