You mention USB problems.  We just got a report that said that
MMC and TFTP (network) didn't work either:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-arm/2019/09/msg2.html

Did you try those?  If so, I assume those failed for you as well?


Yes, I also tried TFTP and MMC.
Same behaviour as described by Florian: TFTP and MMC fail.

@Florian:
I don't think that your SheevaPlug is bricked.
I was able to unbrick mine with these instructions:
https://www.newit.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,2835.0.html
https://tadeubento.com/2018/sheevaplug-2018-unbrick/

Then I followed the instructions by Martin Michlmayr
http://www.cyrius.com/debian/kirkwood/sheevaplug/uboot-upgrade/
to install an older U-Boot Version (2016.11).
The timestamp of this U-Boot-binary was 2018/11/07.
I downloaded it from an older version of Martin's page.

I just saw that Martin already has updated his page so you can
download an older working U-Boot from there - Thanks a lot, Martin!

@Florian: Good look with the unbricking procedure.
It is a bit cumbersome but worked for me.

Greetings to all of you
Jan



Really unfortunate to hear that it's not working in a stable released
version... Thanks for the report.


There are no records of successful u-boot tests on sheevaplug on the
status page:

   https://wiki.debian.org/U-boot/Status

So I have no idea how long any of these features have been broken. I
don't have either the hardware or time to test every "supported" board
in Debian's u-boot packages.

Any chance people could also test the 2019.07 packages in experimental?
I can also try to prepare some 2019.10~rc+ packages which I hope to
upload soon.  Thanks for helping test!


live well,

Bug#934974: u-boot: usb start fails on sheevaplug in u-boot 2019.01

2019-08-17 Thread Jan Hahne
Source: u-boot
Version: 2019.01
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I have a SheevaPlug (Original Version From NewIT).
I installed u-boot (version 2019.01) as described here:
http://www.cyrius.com/debian/kirkwood/sheevaplug/uboot-upgrade/

After the installation I wanted to run the installer from an
USB stick:
http://www.cyrius.com/debian/kirkwood/sheevaplug/install/

But the command "usb start" gave me these errors:
EHCI timed out on TD - token=0x80008d80
EHCI timed out on TD - token=0x80008c80
 ERROR: NOT USB_CONFIG_DESC 8f
2 USB Device(s) found
  scanning usb for storage devices... 0 Storage Device(s) found

I was able to get the SheevaPlug working again using this guide:
https://tadeubento.com/2018/sheevaplug-2018-unbrick/

I installed a previous u-boot version 2016.11.
With this versíon everything was OK.
I was able to run the actual Debian installer and the installation
was successfull without any errors.

So I think there is a bug in u-boot, version 2019.01
