RobertCNelson: I am not using initramfs After some experimentation I found a sort-of solution.
I removed the call to bone_capemgr from uEnv.txt, then decompiled /boot/dtbs/am335x-boneblack.dtb with dtc -I dtb -O dts am335x-boneblack.dtb > am335x-boneblack.dts then inserted the content of my overlay into am335x-boneblack.dts and recompiled with dtc -O dtb -o am335x-boneblack.dtb -b o am335x-boneblack.dts Now I get the RTC as I like at boot. The question remains what's up with bone_capemgr and /lib/firmware at boot. I'll ask on the Arch Arm forum. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
