Hi frdav,
I'm new to these Allwinner based boards (mine is also a Lime2). I tried to follow the installation procedure for Arch, and although Uboot seems to start loading the kernel, at some point during bootup the board freezes. For instance, the ethernet leds light up but power down right after the board freezes. On the other hand, I tested armbian vanilla jessie and it works just fine, at least for basic interactions with the board.
If you think this might still be an issue with Uboot, would you mind explaining a bit more what exactly should I dd from the armbian distro?
The boot log is shown below:
