Hi im new here, managed to get 6.2.7 to boot from usb (1tb wd black nvme m.2) w/ ext4 filesystem however i havent had any luck with booting from either sata port with a 16gb sata drive (small sata chip that was in a mini pc)
But when I try same 16gb sata with a usb adapter and it boots!

1. Do you have serial console? can you post the entire serial console boot log?

2. If you don't have serial console, what u-boot are you running?

Also, post dmesg output here

dmesg

3. If you are running my released u-boot 2017.07-tld-1, then while in Debian

cat /proc/mtd
cat /etc/fw_env.config
fw_printenv

And please post the output of the commands above.

> usb_root=LABEL=rootfs

You don't need to use this env to boot with USB rootfs.

As long as the USB partition is labeled rootfs, u-boot will boot and then kernel will find the USB partition that has rootfs on it. Use the e2label command to label a partition. Such as

e2label /dev/sda1 rootfs

=====

So now when you want to boot from SATA, all you need to do is to label the HDD partition rootfs.

Note that to boot successfully, only one partition can use the label rootfs. So if you boot SATA, then remove the USB drive.

=====

After you booted with SATA, you can plug the USB drive in and relabel it to something else, i.e usb_rootfs. Or if you don't intend to have the USB rootfs attached, then don't need to relabel it (save it to use as "rescue" USB) if and when the HDD rootfs is bad).
