[12:03:48] <solskogen|M> alkersan: Ofc. What for? If you have a PR or a diff, I'd take a look.

[13:36:39] <alkersan> solskogen|M: no need, I've found a way with the existing linux-rpi5 package. If UKI is made with ukify - it will detect that it's compressed and unzip it during assembly.
[13:38:29] <alkersan> how about the u-boot? I have a working build of it and a draft pkgbuild here https://github.com
[13:38:30] <phrik> Title: arch-rpi5/mkosi.packages/uboot-rpi5/PKGBUILD at main · alkersan/arch-rpi5 · GitHub (at github.com)
[14:26:56] -!- h|ignition has quit [Ping timeout: 274 seconds]
[14:28:31] <solskogen|M> Personally I have no need for it, but if it's tested and it works I'll gladly put it in the forge repo

[16:16:30] <alkersan> that would be nice
[16:17:56] <alkersan> I've simplified the pkgbuild to the bare minimum, it just adds the rpi5 usb/nvme patch on the top of latest 2026.10 uboot release, and stores it in /usr/lib/u-boot. No hooks, not post install, that all may or may not be sorted out later
[17:25:42] <solskogen|M> have you tried our normal kernel with it?
[17:27:38] <alkersan> normal kernel is ?
[17:34:10] <alkersan> well, from u-boot perspective the is not much difference - it will boot anything that looks like a proper kernel (using booti method), or if it's a kernel with EFI_STUB it will boot it too (using bootefi method)
[17:36:18] <alkersan> do you mean linux-7.2.14 from the core?
[17:50:05] <solskogen|M> Yes. As in the non-pi kernel :-)
[17:51:37] <alkersan> I'll try. For that i'll need dtbsync, right?
[17:52:49] <solskogen|M> I have no idea
[17:53:13] <solskogen|M> I don't use that on my Orion
[17:59:22] <clover|M> Alkersan: dtbsync is useful when not using uboot, since it will keep the dtb in the efi partition up to date automatically when you update linux(-dtbs)
[18:00:22] <alkersan> well not so simple for rpi5. There is a first stage bootloader, that is quite picky to what should be found in the first FAT32 partition
[18:01:51] <alkersan> so, as a simplest test - i'll just copy bcm2712-rpi-5-b.dtb to the root
[18:05:58] <alkersan> ah, I see now. Dtbsync will do just that
[18:07:08] <alkersan> clover|M "dtbsync reads /sys/firmware/fdt" - is this hard requirement? As i'm building the image on an x86 pc - can it be told exactly what to copy?
[18:11:27] <clover|M> It should find the dtb at runtime via /sys/firmware/fdt
[18:11:27] <clover|M> if you are building an image just copy it over manually?
[18:12:06] <clover|M> dtbsync is just a convinces when updating your linux packages so you dont have to cp from usr/lib/modules to /boot or whatever
[18:12:13] <clover|M> Convenience*
[18:13:26] <clover|M> That reminds me i need to update it for zig 0.17 :)
[18:13:44] <clover|M> I might wait until 0.17.1
