Thanks for bringing this up! Admittedly, I lost track of where this issue stands, as some of it was merged but obviously not all of it. It could perhaps benefit from refreshed patches and possibly a merge request via salsa.debian.org. I have a few relevent systems I could test with. At least with a pinebook, I vaguely recall that it failed to boot using this method, but it has been a long time since I tried and I apparently neglected to mention the details... things may have changed since. I am also a bit inclined to adding u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin rather than replacing all the other parts, as there are some use-cases (e.g. an image capable of booting both sunxi and rockchip systems at different offsets) where the individual parts are still needed. live well, vagrant
