2016-11-03 23:37:04 Paolo Pisati description [Impact] * Unable to boot into system after upgrade to 4.4.0-1030.37 [Test Case] * fresh install ubuntu-16.04.1-preinstalled-server-armhf+raspi2.img.xz * enable -proposed and 'apt full-upgrade' [Regression Potential] * red led still on, but few green led blinks then stay at the black screen(hdmi on) [Other Info] * restore the working boot partition backup image could recover the situation [Impact]  * Unable to boot into system after upgrade to 4.4.0-1030.37 [Test Case]  * fresh install ubuntu-16.04.1-preinstalled-server-armhf+raspi2.img.xz  * enable -proposed and 'apt full-upgrade' [Regression Potential]  * red led still on, but few green led blinks then stay at the black screen(hdmi on) [Other Info]  * restore the working boot partition backup image could recover the situation [Solution] * The latest X/raspi2 kernel in -proposed blows the space the bootloader reserves for the DTB, making the board unbootable (it only happens with classic rpi2 images created by the Foundation, Snappy is fine) * Ppa:p-pisati/misc has these 3 new packages that fix it: - linux-firmware-raspi2 - contains the latest Broadom fw release, and upon installation checks that /boot/firmware/config.txt contains the new DTB memory location, and if not, it does the necessary modification on behalf of the user - flash-kernel - modifies uboot.env to find the DTB in the new memory location - uboot - update uboot to work with the new boot firmware (aka skip serial initialization if already done by the fw), contains the mkknlimg required when installing a new u-boot binary and correctly installs the uboot binary in the vfat partition [How to test it] * Install a fresh foundation image, add my misc ppa and the xenial -proposed repository, apt-get update && dist-upgrade, once the board completes the upgrade reboot it.
