Ok, now I'm thoroughly confused 8-) It sounds as if the guiding assumption behind the u-boot-rpi3 port is that it _isn't_ being self-hosted, but rather part of a cross-compile to be copied onto an installer medium. This is at variance with "normal" ports, but consistent with an embedded target that never self-hosts. Looking at my own rpi3's /boot directory, most of the files are dated May 4th, the last time world and kernel were rebuilt and installed. Are those files genuinely up-to-date, or merely fresh copies of old versions from /usr/share.....? On a Pi3 that _is_ selfhosting, will updating rpi-firmware and u-boot-rpi3 and then updating world and kernel complete the firmware and u-boot update? Apologies for the confusion, and thanks for any clarification! bob prohaska On Mon, May 06, 2019 at 07:46:03PM +0000, James Shuriff wrote: > EFI/BOOT/bootaarch64.efi is the same as /boot/loader_lua.efi which is also the same as /boot/loader.efi.

It's not even required to mount it. I mount my FAT partition elsewhere. Some boards don't even have u-boot in the filesystem they dd it directly onto the disk. Also consider you don't have to build the port on the Raspberry Pi, so there would be no way to install u-boot from the host system without knowing where the SD card is mounted. > > The rpi-firmware port also puts stuff in /usr/local/share. That's the port that has most of the files needed for the Raspberry Pi's FAT partition.
