Description
U-Boot loader and related files for the HiFive Unmatched (FU740).
The SD card must be formatted with a GPT partition scheme, and expects two specific GUID partition types for the SPL and FIT image.
Note: due to limitations in gpart(8), sgdisk(8) should be used instead. Install the sysutils/gdisk port or package.
Assuming an SD card device in /dev/da2, execute: sgdisk -g --clear --set-alignment=1 \ --new=1:34:2081 --change-name=1:spl --typecode=1:5B193300-FC78-40CD-8002-E86C45580B47 \ --new=2:2082:10273 --change-name=2:uboot --typecode=2:2E54B353-1271-4842-806F-E436D6AF6985 \ /dev/da2
Now, copy the u-boot files to the SD card with dd(1). dd if=/usr/local/share/u-boot/u-boot-sifive-fu740/u-boot-spl.bin of=/dev/da2p1 conv=sync dd if=/usr/local/share/u-boot/u-boot-sifive-fu740/u-boot.itb of=/dev/da2p2 conv=sync
