Hello Sascha.

There is only output from sdram-init binary, then silence.

shc@gentoo /home/ARM64/barebox/firmware $ ls -1hs rk3568*
396K rk3568-bl31.bin
4.0K rk3568-bl31.bin.gen.S
460K rk3568-bl31.bin.gen.pbl.o
4.0K rk3568-bl31.bin.sha.bin
64K rk3568-bl31.bin.z
456K rk3568-bl32.bin
4.0K rk3568-bl32.bin.gen.S
624K rk3568-bl32.bin.gen.pbl.o
4.0K rk3568-bl32.bin.sha.bin
168K rk3568-bl32.bin.z

Can you compare them with your files?
I understand the versions may differ, but the size should be roughly the same.

Thanks!
