I've been looking for a permanent solution for my #VisionFive2 board, and I decided to put my research into a guide for others. Although in the meantime, I've run into another issue: I cannot for the life of me boot the image for updating the board's bootloader. If anyone has advice please reach out!

Thanks to the migration to Btrfs I can now use Btrbk backup solution again on my #VisionFive2 #RISCV board for full incremental disc backups to a remote location 💾

Once again I faced with the following error trying to boot GNU Guix from a MicroSD card on my VisionFive2 board:
waiting for partition '31393730-3031-3031-3139-343934363833' to appear...

Interestingly, I was able to boot to this image just few days ago. It seems that the difference is just in the u-boot parameters:
