Hello,
If there is no support for your device in the u-boot bootloader, you can try
one built for a different A20 device, such as the Cubieboard 2 or the A20
version of MK802. Chances are, it will work fine. However if you want to
ensure that your device works reliably, and especially if you plan to have
several of them ("servers"?), the proper way is to help add support for it by
following http://linux-sunxi.org/New_Device_howto (first ensuring it has not
been added already under some different name).
