Hi guys,

this is my first post to this forum. So excuse me if i am asking "noob stuff" :P
I have rudimentary to basic Linux knowledge (keeping SLES server alive @work)

Data:
  • NAS: Medion MD86783 - It's based on Marvell Feroceon CPU (If i done my reading right it should be a kirkwood flavor) which seems to be supported by bodhis rootfs and kernel. (jochar in this Thread has the same board.
  • I am running stock u-boot. - I didnt update uboot, because kwboot is not working for me and so i can't test any of the provided kwboot files against my NAS. The risk of bricking the hardware was too damn high. If i got all information correct, there is no way of unbricking via uart IF kwboot is NOT working. Pls correct me if i am wrong :)
  • Attachted to this post is a full serial log from booting the board till default linux login promt.
  • Also attacchted to this post is the output of default printenv
  • Medion provided its GPL source

Now if i try to load latest bodhi kernel via tftpboot, my NAS just freezes.

Thats a try with bodhis kernel and integrated N320s dtb as desrcibed here in 4b



I don't even know, if i am just noob and missing some bootargs to propably boot, or the kernel is missing its initramfs to do more, or ther kernel does not fit my hardware (i have seen bad magic number errors if i play around with my uImage files)
And even after "dumping/learning" for 2 weekends now i have not the slightest hint what i could do to get one step further.

Maybe u can give me a push in the right direction :)
Do you need further information?

regards and greetings from germany

Yes, risk is high if you can't run kwboot. Did you try with my NSA310s u-boot image? and how? please describe or attach log.

> Marvell>> tftpboot 0x800000 uImage.bodhi
> Marvell>> bootm 0x800000

You also need to load uInitrd.

This bad magic number is to be expected.

Let me take a look at the log and see what needs to be done. It's a Kirkwood so our hope is high that it will work :)

I'm going to gradually fill in some info here in this post as you try.

1. With stock u-boot, the USB drive needs to be power up manually in serial console so it can load the kernel (later we will add this to the boot commands to make it permanent):
mw.l f1010100 1361c000                                                
usb reset

2. The box is identical to the NSA310s and NSA320s. So if this bos has 2 SATA drives then use NSA320S DTB, if 1 SATA drive then use NSA310S DTB. Later, once you figured out if there is any difference, a new DTS can be created for this box specifically, using the NSA310S as a base.

3. Assuming you've already create a USB rootfs using the instruction in the kernel/rootfs thread. With that, the rootfs is on the Ext3 parttion, and labeled rootfs.

4. The commands you've set up has some syntax error. So they should be

setenv set_bootargs 'setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=LABEL=rootfs rootdelay=10 $(mtdparts)'
setenv usb_load_uimage 'ext2load usb 0:1 0x800000 /boot/uImage'
setenv usb_load_uinitrd 'ext2load usb 0:1 0x1100000 /boot/uInitrd'
setenv usb_boot 'run set_bootargs; run usb_load_uimage; run usb_load_uinitrd'


and then

run usb_boot

Hi bodhi, thanks for your ongoing support and for your reply (must have been ~5years now? - I saw postings from 2013)

My device has 2x2TB Disks inside. So NSA 320S it should be.

> Yes, risk is high if you can't run kwboot. Did you try with my NSA310s u-boot image? and how? please describe or attach log.

No i haven't tried yet, because the nandbackups, which i did a year ago, should be corrupt. I am coming back to this, after i've got a new kernel working with debian working.I want to have some fun first, before we make it a brick :)

> You also need to load uInitrd.
So it is required ;) My guess was: If i just load the new kernel, he would use rootfs from nand. I even tried to load your kernel, read out the rootfs via "nand read.e" to memory and boot with that...

>This bad magic number is to be expected.
Let me take a look at the log and see what needs to be done. It's a Kirkwood so our hope is high that it will work :)

My hope is high too :) I'll play around with the images tomorrow , cause i dont know which images i used (its near midnight here - and i tried a lot of images and lost track)

>mw.l f1010100 1361c000
>usb reset

i probably have woken up my neighbours :D the internal speaker gone crazy in a permanent noise. and one of the leds changed from blue to red. He was scanning the USB-bus though
Marvel>>mw.l f1010100 1361c000
#noise begins
usb reset
USB: scanning for devices... 2USB Devices found
Waiting for storagedevices  to settle before scanning...
#i waited for 10s and then pulled the plug. The noise.. I think i will solder this out tommorrow, since it makes a noise on every cold boot too..

>3. Assuming you've already create a USB rootfs using the instruction in the kernel/rootfs thread. With that, the rootfs is on the Ext3 parttion, and >labeled rootfs.

Yes i followed your guide and extracted your latest rootfs.tar.gz to an usb stick. I thought my device should be able to load your /boot/uImage and /boot/uinitrd over tftpboot before i even think about an usb stick.(more errors could happen) Was i wrong?
zImage shouldn't work, because my uboot doesnt have bootz command.

Rootfs in NAND will not work. It is probably too old.

OK :) so there is some GPIO controls difference in USB related aspect. Some investigation might be needed turn off the speaker, if you can't disconnect it. And this GPIO poke might not be for USB in thix box, until you see a storage device found. Assume this is only an expirement. Generally, poking GPIO in this correct address f1010100 will not harm the box.

But as usual, you would do it at your own risk. Therefore, kwboot is very important to get working first.

You are right. tftp should load and then u-boot should run the kernel. But rootfs needs to be on USB (or HDD). So if you want to test it that way first, then it is all good. Let's postpone loading kernel from USB. Just rootfs from USB (therefore there is no need to try to activate it in u-boot).

I'll take a look at the GPL to see where the USB and speaker GPIOs really are.

bodhi,

just i lil note before i go to sleep.

>I'll take a look at the GPL to see where the USB and speaker GPIOs really are.
Thanks. Feel free to tell me (or what to google) where i find the information. This knowledge could be of use for further projects :)

After some more testing i get bad magic number errors on tftpbooting. I tried with and without dtb included in uImage. both produced this error. I didnt set mainlineLinux and arcNumber

>But as usual, you would do it at your own risk. Therefore, kwboot is very important to get working first.

i know what i did by breaking the "warranty void" seal ;) Now that we assume that my NAS is a NSA320S, i could try NSA320 kwb uboot image. At first i tried a uboot image for a different hardware.

So usb support is required first

Maybe i should mention, that the Medion NAS has an USB3 Port and 2 USB2 Ports

Set mainlineLinux to yes. archNumber is not needed when you use the DTB.

If you load the kernel using tftp then there is no need for USB during u-boot running. When the kernel starts (using the images from tftp load), it has USB support so it will mount the rootfs from USB by itself (the rootfs can be on USB 3.0, too). u-boot is irrelevant after the kernel has started.

That GPL download link gave me an .exe file. Does not seem right! hope I can extract it as a tarball.

... Nope. I can't extract this GPL source file. Linux does not recognize it.

Hi bodhi,

the exe file is a self extracting Archive made with speedarchiver for windows platform. That's fine and no sketchy malware.

I'll upload a decrompressed version (medion-lifecloud-opensource-20131128.tar.bz2) right now. HERE it is :)

>If you load the kernel using tftp then there is no need for USB during u-boot running. When the kernel starts (using the images from tftp load), it has USB support so it will mount the rootfs from USB by itself (the rootfs can be on USB 3.0, too). u-boot is irrelevant after the kernel has started.

so loading uinit and uimage via tftp AND with usb stick attachted (for rootfs) should bood a valid system.

regarding kwboot.
- I am using mysmartusb in usb to uart (cp210x) mode which is detected as ttyusb0
- my laptop is my debian linux machine. it has u-boot-utils installed, which ships with kwboot.

I tried the following:
kwboot /home/helge/Medion_NAS/uboot.2016.05-tld-1.nsa310s.mtd0.kwb -p -t -B115200 /dev/ttyUSB0
kwboot /home/helge/Medion_NAS/uboot.2016.05-tld-1.nsa320.mtd0.kwb -p -t -B115200 /dev/ttyUSB0
kwboot /home/helge/Medion_NAS/uboot.2016.05-tld-1.nsa325.mtd0.kwb -p -t -B115200 /dev/ttyUSB0
But all i get is
Sending boot message. Pls reboot target
If i connect with putty while kwboot is running, i see him pushing the magic numbers to get the board to boot in bootrom. But instead the "garbage" brings just uboot to halt. Do i have to compile my own kwboot?

USB in uboot:
-USB stick is plugged into USB2-port before boot
-usb stick ist ext3 formated
-interrupt uboot process
- running usb reset

No need. The standard kwboot from Debian repo is good.

This means either:

1. This box does not support UART booting. In serial console, check the BootROM version:

md ff00003c

2. It has a quirk. You can try Control-C to abort, and then recall kwboot the command, execute it again. Repeat this several times (up to 20). See its bootROM will catch the handshake.

What type of drive, brand/model?

Could you wipe it out with fdisk, and follow the instruction in the kernel/rootfs thread, create only 1 Ext3 partition,.... extract the rootfs tarball again (reminder: being root). The bad magic number error could be that the uImage is either corrupted, or not in the right format.

Check the commands that you used to append the DTB to see if those were correct (exactly as in the instruction?).

>What type of drive, brand/model?

Could you wipe it out with fdisk, and follow the instruction in the kernel/rootfs thread, create only 1 Ext3 partition,.... extract the rootfs tarball again (reminder: being root). The bad magic number error could be that the uImage is either corrupted, or not in the right format.

Check the commands that you used to append the DTB to see if those were correct (exactly as in the instruction?).

Yeah already did this after the first tries didn't work. My usb stick is a no-brand type if you mean that with "drive, brand/model". I'll change it with an 8GB Patriot XT USB-Stick and build new kernel and rootfs. Will append putty.log

This is what i done for rootfs on usb
1. Deleted all partitions on my Patriot 8GB stick
2. with gparted i put an ext3 partiotion on it.
mount /dev/sdc1 /media/rootfs
cd /media/rootfs
tar -xjf Debian-4.4.0-kirkwood-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2
cd boot
cp -a zImage-4.4.0-kirkwood-tld-1  zImage.fdt
cat dts/kirkwood-goflexnet.dtb  >> zImage.fdt
mv uImage uImage.orig
mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x00008000 -e 0x00008000 -n Linux-4.4.0-kirkwood-tld-1 -d zImage.fdt  uImage
cd /; umount /media/root

Results remain the same. Ill post logs tommorow

helge,

1. The USB for rootfs should be a good quality one such as Sandisk, Kingston,... the Patriot drives are notoriously bad for booting (numerous postings in this forum about it).
2. When in doubt, do a sync, umount, and fsck, before unplug.
3. There is typo on the 1st line: /media/rootfs ?
4. There is an error in DTB name ( not the cause of the current problem). The DTB name should be kirkwood_nsa320s.dtb.

Hi bodhi,

thanks for your endurance with me.

I got one of my other sticks working (Intenso). run_usb start loads the files from usb stick. after that i try running
bootm 0x800000 0x1100000
The system freezes one more time though and sets
arcnumber=14

$(mtdparts)
is not set. I haven't found a hint what should be in there.

The errors you mentioned above, was me beeing tired :) I hope you noticed the GPL medion source is uploaded in my previous post

helge,

The putty log either was not a very good capture, or this was a real error!

Marvell>> bootm 0x800000 0x11000   00000 0x400000

Let's do this.

- Interrupt serial console and

setenv arcNumber 4931
setenv mainlineLinux yes
setenv set_bootargs 'setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=LABEL=rootfs rootdelay=10 earlyprintk=serial $(mtdparts)'
setenv usb_load_uimage 'ext2load usb 0:1 0x800000 /boot/uImage'
setenv usb_load_uinitrd 'ext2load usb 0:1 0x1100000 /boot/uInitrd'
setenv usb_boot 'usb start; run set_bootargs; run usb_load_uimage; run usb_load_uinitrd; bootm 0x800000 0x1100000'

Note that arcNumber is really not imprtant booting with DTB, just including it here for completeness.

And then

printenv
run usb_boot

And post the entire serial console log here. You can post it in code tags inside the post, no need to attach it.

After some time (kernl 4.10 with dtb included) all LED turn from blue to red. Not so with version 4.4.0 kernel and dtb included. The log is exactly the same, but the led dont change color.

this is how i created kernel images

for version 4.10 kernel i exchanged dts folder and zImage to version 4.10.
i never touched initramfs cause i don't have vmlinuz-4.10 and i think 4.4.0 was your latest version. thanks again btw for your work :)
I also tried ext2 and ext3
Since mtdparts is empty i tried:
setenv mtdparts ubi.mtd=2,2048
but it didn't work either.

helge,

You can't change the kernel to 4.10. It has to be kernel 4.4 that come with the rootfs. So redo the DTB-appended uImage and try again.

Earlyprintk hopefully will print out some info if the kernel can't start.

Hi bodhi,

nope i tried it yesterday with:

kernel 4.4.0 stock
kernel 4.4.0 with dts
and
kernel 4.10.0 stock
kernel 4.10.0 with dts

but will post 4.4.0 from clean usb stick with full log

Let's create clean stick - so we don't mess up the file versions

Should we try another dts file?

helge,

I double-checked your steps and everything looks good!

So now the problem is potentially, like you suspected, that the stock u-boot could have been hard coded to run the kernel at stock address. So let's try that.

Our load address
bootm 0x800000 0x1100000
But stock is:
bootcmd=nand read.e 0x800000 0x100000 0x400000; setenv bootargs $(console) $(bootargs_root); bootm 0x800000
So it is the same address!

However, there is another stock load address:
loadaddr=0x02000000

So let's use that.

setenv initrd_addr 0x2900000
setenv usb_load_uimage 'ext2load usb 0:1 $(loadaddr)  /boot/uImage'
setenv usb_load_uinitrd 'ext2load usb 0:1 $(initrd_addr) /boot/uInitrd'
setenv usb_boot 'usb start; run set_bootargs; run usb_load_uimage; run usb_load_uinitrd; bootm $(loadaddr)  $(initrd_addr)'
boot

Yes, run usb_boot. And I am stumped :) we did everything right.

I think it's time for me to take a closer look at the envs again. And also start reading the GPL!

i know its just a bunch of rpm's. But atleast theyr source packages. packages with 'oe' in the name seem to be modified.
The interesting files should be in kernel-2.6.31.8.tar.bz2
It contains instructions on how to build kernel and ubifs rootfs. But there is no Image included. Seems like medion hide it somewhere :/

helge,

I've looked at this to find out if their kernel was compiled with hardcoded bootargs. But it showed that stockkernel accepts the tag structure from u-boot (the typical old mechanism for older u-boot and kernel 2.6.xx).

This is an incompleted GPL tarball. There should be u-boot source code in it.

> i am getting kernel panics :P

I don't think it will be useful! since I am looking for u-boot info. We already have kernel source in the tarball.

The fact that earlyprintk did not output anything indicated that the kernel has not started at all. And that might be either:

- wrong load address
- wrong bootargs.

That's not that good, because i posted all source medion released. :(

hi bodhi,

no it has no Display connected.
On the bottomside of the pcb is a connector for the 2 SATA Ports. Thats it
And to be complete, here is a pic of the back

Did you look to find it in the network after this point? sometime it seems stuck, but it is possible that serial console output has stopped (I asked about the LCD above because that would be one of the possibilities).

helge,

By the way,

#IT crashed with 0x2000000 so i changed it to our well known 0x800000
Marvell>> setenv addr_uImage 0x800000

Most likely the reason it crashed was becauseyou did not use the corresponding uInitrd load address. They need to be changed in pair.

loadaddr=0x02000000
initrd_addr=0x2900000

bodhi,

tried to ping the ip address, which i set in $(ippaddr) => 10.0.0.30 it wasn't pingable, nor could i connect with ssh or telnet.
but it was able to
tftpload
an uImage. the nas was also visible in my router. So networking did work in uboot

>loadaddr=0x02000000
<initrd_addr=0x2900000

Your assumption was correct :P But i tried it now. The resulsts were as usal. It hungs after booting kernel and initram

It's no longer 10.0.0.30 :) The basic rootfs uses dhcp, unless you have changed it after you extracted to USB. So look to see if any new IP appear in the network.

However, there's a very slim chance that the kernel has been running.
