Thanks for bisecting this! What update is needed? Is it: diff --git a/configs/socfpga_de0_nano_soc_defconfig b/configs/socfpga_de0_nano_soc_defconfig index 4539d08dea..1c940ec6de 100644 --- a/configs/socfpga_de0_nano_soc_defconfig +++ b/configs/socfpga_de0_nano_soc_defconfig @@ -33,8 +33,6 @@ CONFIG_CMD_EXT4_WRITE=y CONFIG_MTDIDS_DEFAULT="nor0=ff705000.spi.0" CONFIG_MTDPARTS_DEFAULT="mtdparts=ff705000.spi.0:1m(u-boot),256k(env1),256k(env2),14848k(boot),16m(rootfs),-@1536k(UBI)" CONFIG_CMD_UBI=y -# CONFIG_ISO_PARTITION is not set -# CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION is not set CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC=y CONFIG_SYS_RELOC_GD_ENV_ADDR=y CONFIG_VERSION_VARIABLE=y ?
