Hi, did anyone succeed booting a FriendlyElec NanoPC-T6? Since there was some success report with Radxa Rock 5B recently, I was hoping that the NanoPC-T6 wouldn't be too different.
So, I tried CoreOS 40 with EDK2 (https://github.com/edk2-porting/edk2-rk3588) and the Linux 6.7-rc2 rk3588-nanopc-t6 device tree placed in the ESP. While ACPI didn't want to boot at all, the device tree boot at least spits out some more logs. However, the system just abruptly disappears in the end: https://pastebin.com/zqs7nQ8L
I also tried Fedora 40 (Minimal), but that runs into a CPU lockup: https://pastebin.com/aafvP6du
In both cases the OS image was copied to eMMC while EDK2 was on an SD card.
Any ideas why the NanoPC-T6 doesn't want to boot?
Greetings, Waldemar

What storage are you using?
Overall the support for the T6 upstream is still prerry rudimentary when I looked last week because someone else asked.

I've tried eMMC and NVMe, but NVMe crashes almost immediately. Also, I tested an eMMC workaround from Radxa's kernel fork, but it made no difference: https://github.com/radxa/kernel/pull/130/files
I'll have to find out how to set the verbosity much higher, so the failing component can be narrowed down...

Do you know which major parts are still missing? I've seen that the SPI flash is missing in the DTS, for example, but that wouldn't prevent booting. Maybe I should do a diff with the Rock 5B DTS...
