1 week ago Good job! It's not Joshua's fault, this is how u-boot is generally configured: boot from USB ahead of NVME. It's also true for most PC's, but on a PC, you can easiliy change the boot order in BIOS or with grub(2). Will close this "issue" here,
Hello @ewaldc
I am munecito from the https://github.com/Joshua-Riek/ubuntu-rockchip/issues/1068 thread.
Because that project will be most probably closed I wanted to give you an update on my issue.
Since the project won't be getting updates I went and installed the offcial ubuntu image from orange pi.
That one has an orangepi-config facility to transfer the OS to the NVME, and you can also modify u-boot from there. Once I installed that image I can shut down the board and restart with the USB C SSD connected. I didn't need to add anything to u-boot although I think I had identify some line in the copy of the u-boot you left (thank you for that) that could have potentially helped.
I just wanted to give you a heads up just in case you would like to check out those official ubuntu images for those boards in which you had observed a similar boot loop.
This is what shows when booting regarding the system:
Welcome to Orange Pi 1.1.8 Jammy with Linux 6.1.43-rockchip-rk3588
Kind regards.
PS: I managed to change the sources and forced an update to noble. Everything seems to be working so far and the boot supports the SSD.
