Failed to load dtb file in /boot/dtb/

[pensonsky]

I have modified extlinux.conf file and reboot.

/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf

TIMEOUT 30
DEFAULT primary

# When testing a custom kernel, it is recommended that you create a backup of
# the original kernel and add a new entry to this file so that the device can
# fallback to the original kernel. To do this:
#
# 1, Make a backup of the original kernel
#      sudo cp /boot/Image /boot/Image.backup
#
# 2, Copy your custom kernel into /boot/Image
#
# 3, Uncomment below menu setting lines for the original kernel
#
# 4, Reboot

# LABEL backup
#    MENU LABEL backup kernel

#    APPEND ${cbootargs}

dtb file has been copy to the directory：

root@123:/# ls /boot/dtb/

Hi,

I think that’s because your device still boots from eMMC/SD card, where kernel and kernel dtb are loaded, but the rootfs is mounted on NVMe. Note that the device to boot from can be different from the device where rootfs is mounted.

Either put the file on eMMC, or change the boot order in U-Boot to make sure both kernel/kernel dtb are loaded from NVMe.

Solved, Thanks.
