Title: sce-load is not working
Post by: herschel on December 07, 2015, 12:25:24 AM

Hi Gents

I manage to get my Marsboard A20 to boot with dCore (uCore) and boots with an awesome speed (fantastic!). This is a microSD card booting.

my boot.scr, uCore, uImage, script.bin files are in fat partition (mmcblk0p1). I created a TCE on mmcblk0p2 by using "tce-setdrive". I managed to import extensions using sce-import. Up to this point it works well.

My issue is when I try to load the extension using "sce-load <package>" I get an error as follows,

mount: mounting /dev/loop0 on /tmp/tcloop/<package> failed: no such device

when I do "sce-load <package>" the second time it says "<package> already Installed"

Inside /tmp/tcloop there is a directory with the package name but it is empty

any suggestions?

Your kernel lacks loop support.

Is this seen using the files from the below directory?

From the link I used only uCore and boot.scr. Instead of zImage I used uImage built by me because I wants i2s support. I have included loop support in the kernel but CRYPTO was not enabled. I compiled a kernel with CRYPTO and will test this.

I tried the files in the aforesaid link. The board boots but no display. Btw I am using VGA monitor and also tried HDMI. Does this support VGA?

Hi Gents
Thank you for the support. I got it working. Build a uImage with kernel 3.4.108.

If you would like to share that uImage we could upload it to the A20 directory.
