==== Bootloader ====

The stick comes with a boot1 bootloader configured to allow booting from the micro sd card. If no sd card is inserted it boots uboot as secondary bootloader from the internal nand which boots android.

So i needed a compatible [http://linux-sunxi.org/U-Boot uboot] written to an sd card that will boot the linux kernel.

But how to know which uboot configuration to choose? After having a few tries guessing sensible values from dram configurations of similar devices i found out about [http://linux-sunxi.org/FEL fel].

Fel is a really cool tool for Allwinner cpus that let's you do all kind of interesting things but in our case we are interested

in dumping data from the internal nand device. That way i was able to access the [http://linux-sunxi.org/Fex_Guide script.bin] data which is compiled from a fex file.

Luckily there are also the [http://linux-sunxi.org/Sunxi-tools sunxi tools] which let you decompile the script.bin back to a fex file.

And it this fex file i found the exact values in order to use for the dram config. I edited the dram file corresponding to mk802II_a20 and compiled uboot with spl.

After writing it to an sd card i had a working secondary bootloader.

==== Kernel ====

I decided to use kernel version [https://github.com/linux-sunxi/linux-sunxi 3.4.90] since it's quite recent and i've already used it for A10 based devices. Based on my experience with similar devices and a bit of guess work i came up with [https://metalab.at/wiki/images/2/2d/Mk802ii_a20_kernel.txt this configuration].
