I have a very strange issue. I have a fleet of Raspberry Pi 3B+'s running a Yocto build. I’ve recently tried making a new build based on Zeus, and I’ve got that build working, but the updates are very unreliable and I’m seeing some strange behaviour. The update will technically success according to…

Would be interesting to know: When you update thud -> zeus do you also update the bootloader? What is the U-Boot version on the device experiencing problems? What is the result of cat /etc/fw_env.config ?

Hi Mirza, When I update from Thud to Zeus, I don’t update the bootloader. It stays on 2018.07 The U-Boot version on the device experiencing problems is U-Boot 2020.01 Output of /etc/fw_env.config is below. I get the same output on the old Thud and the new Zeus builds /dev/mmcblk0 0x400000 …

Thanks for the clarification. That helped a lot and I think I know what is the problem. I believe that you need to revert this change , for your zeus builds. This change changes where the U-Boot environment is stored and as soon as you update the bootloader on your device (with rpi-update-firmware i…

Thanks for this information @mirzak . I’ve just tried to apply the patch, however I got the following error: ERROR: u-boot-fw-utils-mender-auto-provided-1.0-r0 do_configure: U-Boot configuration rpi_3_32b_config has setting: CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET=0x400000 CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND=0x800000 but Mender …

Ah sorry, forgot. You also need to set this in e.g local.conf, MENDER_PARTITION_ALIGNMENT = "4194304" Then you should be able to drop the MENDER_UBOOT_ENV_STORAGE_DEVICE_OFFSET_1/2 changes With the patch and above change, you will be in a similar state as the configuration in earlier branches of …

@mirzak thanks very much! This seems to be working nicely now Slightly unrelated - any idea when the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B/B+ and Mender will support Dunfell? I think I’ve seen some people on the forums mention that they’re using it already but I was just wondering if there will be official suppor…

Glad it worked out. Dunfell support is already in place, we did an official release a while back

[image] james-onsolution: I just wasn’t sure because this page ( Raspberry Pi 3 Model B/B+ ) doesn’t mention Dunfell or have a Dunfell tag. Ah, think we just missed updating it. Thanks for pointing that out, I will update it right now.

Ah ok, that’s good news. I just wasn’t sure because this page (Raspberry Pi 3 Model B/B+) doesn’t mention Dunfell or have a Dunfell tag. I’ll try it out soon though
