Beagle Black SD卡启动问题

虽然BBB是开源硬件，但坑也是比较多的，还好资料和用的人也比较多，暂时还都能找到问题所在。吐槽完了来看下SD启动的这个问题。

看了之前关于BBB启动方式的文章应该比较清楚，在eMMC已经写入系统的前提下（出厂已写入系统），要想从SD卡启动需要在启动时按着boot健（S2），Get Started网页和System Reference上面也都是这也说的。这种操作当然没错，但实际使用中发现即使不按S2，最终启动的也是SD卡中的内核，这就奇怪了，接上UART0，看看启动中发生了什么

上面是按下S2键的情况下的启动信息，可以看到直接启动SD卡中的UBOOT（2017），然后启动SD卡中内核。下面看看不按S2键的启动信息

可以看到，先启动了eMMC中的UBOOT(2016)，然后出现了mmc0 is current device，mmc0就是SD卡，也就是启动的是eMMC中的UBOOT，然后又跳转到SD卡启动了内核。Google了一下，在Github中（https://github.com/victronenergy/venus/wiki/bbb-boot-process-overview）对此问题有明确的解释

Note

By default, the BBB u-boot always looks for a kernel and DTS from the SD card (MMC0) before the eMMC (MMC1) regardless of the boot device that MLO and u-boot.img loaded from.

This is a new 'feature' in u-boot.

This feature does allows for testing new kernels and rootfs systems without having to install onto the eMMC.

On the downside, every eMMC boot is now slowed slightly as u-boot looks for a kernel and DTS on the SD card, fails when there is no card present or it can't find a zImage or dts, and then tries again from the eMMC.

Disabling this behavior requires a rebuild of u-boot.

大意就是说这是UBOOT的新特性，为了利用SD卡调试方便，不管是从eMMC还是SD卡中启动的UBOOT,都会优先启动SD卡中的内核。次文档发表时间是2015年11月11日，但具体是从哪个版本的UBOOT开始还没查到可靠资料。对于此问题也有其它国外论坛在讨论，并且有大神给出了如下启动图

感想：这种开源非盈利性的东西，虽然资料很多，但出现了这么大的改动也没人把更新到文档中。
