I linked hardware:boot:staging u-boot (where you already enabled
bananapi-m2-zero) to home:seife:bananapi, additionally the
openSUSE:Factory:ARM JeOS image and this image now boots from SD card \O/ :-)

Great news! Could you push your changes to openSUSE:Factory:ARM/JeOS please?
But, why you did not name your JeOS image bananapim2zero?

I just followed the example of the Banana Pi M2 plus which is called

sinovoipbpim2plus (sinovoip is the manufacturer IIUC), and thus named it
sinovoipbpim2zero :-)

So I went for being consistent with other banana pi's
It would probably make sense to rename both to "bananapim2{zero,plus}" because I doubt too many people will search for sinovoip. OTOH as long as links in the wiki are pointing to the right image, everything will be fine. I personally don't care too much.

I'm looking into the missing wifi and ethernet now.

There is no Ethernet, according to 
http://wiki.banana-pi.org/Banana_Pi_BPI-M2_ZERO
Are you sure you are running a Bananapi M2 zero?

Yes, there is. There's just no connector on the board. But 4 wires and a RJ45 socket will give you an ethernet port:

This is a case of "I need to patch the dtb to get this going". Unfortunately, just using the dtb from armbian made the ethernet appear (I have not yet soldered the connector, so I cannot tell if it would have worked), but killed WiFi :-) (armbian uses linux-sunxi kernel so probably has other changes to the device tree that conflicts with the upstream kernel).

So I'm back to the original question: Can I easily specify which dtb file to load in grub? So that I can try alternate ones without having to resort to "rip the card out of the bananapi, stick it into a PC and fix it again" in case the modified dtb fails to boot?

Best regards,

        Stefan
