DTB selection

pzt — Thu, 26 Oct 2017 18:11:33 GMT

I have an i.mx6 with RAM bringup, i.e. uboot passes the dtb memory address as bootm parameter. However, the kernel seems to forgo this and silently loads an old dtb from storage, according to the machine type string. Does anyone know more about this selection process and how to control it or if it is logged anywhere.

Hi p z,

you must stop uboot before Linux boots and then use the following commands to switch the dtb.

setenv fdt_file my_file.dtb

saveenv

If you execute command print you will see all the uboot variables and the fdt_file parameter should have abeen changed.

Regards,
Carlos
