Hi Craig,
Could you please provide a bit more detailed description
of the change you've sent: what was wrong and what
this change is intended to fix, so I'll push it to gerrit.
Thanks!
With best regards,
Vadim Yanitskiy.

New subject: [PATCH] mtk: fix firmware makefile to work with current osmocom-bb makefile system
Sure Vadim,
It seems the existing Makefile.mtk isn't compatible with the current makefile scheme
so nothing would happen when it was called.
I modified it to match better the other Makefile structure and now I can compile a
loader_mtk.mtkram.bin file.
Sadly the resulting binary doesn't yet work on the sciphone dream g2 hardware that I
have. There are some compiler warnings that may need fixing or maybe the code needs more
fundamental change after rotting a bit.
My goal is to get back to the "last good state" for the schiphone dream g2 and
then use that as a starting point for work with mtk6260 aka fernvale board and related
devices.
Thanks!
Craig

New subject: [PATCH] mtk: fix firmware makefile to work with current osmocom-bb makefile system
Some good news, I played around with the device and the loader and found that things work
"as they did" if I follow the instructions more carefully... press and hold the
button UNTIL LOADING IS FINISHED! ;) It says it there but I didn't quite understand I
had to hold it down the whole time.
Anyhow... it works and gets to "Running on mt62xx in environment mtkram and HW_CODE =
0x6235" So I am back at square one with this small Makefile.mtk change and will
proceed with experiments on bringing up sciphone and/or fernvale and friends.
Thanks
Craig

Your change is in Gerrit now: https://gerrit.osmocom.org/5217

Sure, feel free to send new patches ;)

My congratulations! Could you please write a brief (or more detailed,
if you wish) description of the work you're doing, so I could create
a dedicated wiki page? Or is one already there?

This wiki page would probably be good. It needs updating for sure since some of the git
links for u-boot, linux kernel, initramfs image are dead. It seems they referred to
git.osmocom.org projects which no longer exist. Not sure if those could be restored or
not.
I would be happy to make very small changes to that page. When I get something working on
fernvale and others we could probably create a wiki page for mt6260 mt6261 fernvale and
whatever others make sense.
