[Arm-netbook] mele a1000 can't boot

[=?gb18030?B?ZGV2ZnVh?=]

Thanks for you help~


I trried the file from http://dl.linux-sunxi.org/nightly/latest/ .   
an old 256MB SD card can boot to u-boot console.


but another newer 1GB Samsun MMC card doesn't work, still mention:


U-Boot SPL 2011.09-rc1-00055-g4d29a5d-dirty (Mar 01 2012 - 16:05:47)
MMC:   SUNXI SD/MMC: 0
spl: mmc init failed: err - -1


### ERROR ### Please RESET the board ###





This card can be read/write by laptop's socket, and can be identify by mele a1000 Android OS


Maybe u-boot need extra MMC driver?




Thanks¡£

Looks like the mmc init failed, is your mmc slot works fine in stock android?
If yes, then try the nightly build from
http://dl.linux-sunxi.org/nightly/latest/
You need the sun4i-spl.bin and u-boot.bin
Write to your sd card with
sudo dd if=sun4i-spl.bin of=/dev/sdb bs=1024 seek=8
and
sudo dd if=u-boot.bin of=/dev/sdb bs=1024 seek=32
then you can boot to u-boot console.
