first of all, thanks for IPFire - i think i use it for 10+ years now and were always happy with it.
But today i ran into a new issue - The new Rev 1.5 of the Raspberry Pi 4 Model B i received last week. (In Raspberry OS Raspbian you can see it via “cat /proc/cpuinfo | egrep -A3 Hardware”)
The issue is somehow similar as it has been with Rev 1.4 booting from the internal ySD card. You always get the: “error -5 whilst initialising SD card” boot loop.
The Version i tried is IPFire 2.27 - Core Update 164 (and also tried 162 and 163 - and even the latest nightly next Core 166)
What i allready did: Read all topics regarding Rev 1.4 of the Raspberry and also did the eeprom update, mentionend in this topic: RPi 4 boot failure with 162 and 163 - #9 by lincoln - But even with eeprom firmware from the stable channel, the Raspberry will not boot from the ySD Card.
To be sure, it has something to do with the eeprom, i also tried to boot via a USB-ySD adapter, which worked. And also installing IPFire on an USB-Stick directly worked without any issues. So the issue is only the internal ySD card slot.
Anyone has an idea how to get the 1.5 Raspi booting again from ySD card?
It realy seems to be an issue with the eeprom and 1.5 Rasp in combination and all previous recommended steps did not help (and i tried many of them now.)
I am guessing the answer is “unknown” at the moment. @arne_f is the Dev and probably does not have this Revision of the device. He’ll respond when he can…
Maybe i will try what they did in the Arch Topic “replacing “fdt_addr_r” with “fdt_addr”” - But i will have to see if this can be done easily with IPFire. If there is success i will share it, for sure.
