U-Boot RPi SSD-USB boot issues

[Mike Hoogstraten]

Good day,

I ran into a problem with a Raspberry Pi 4 setup and this seems to be a
U-boot issue.

Setup:

RPi 4 - 4GB
Home assistant 5.x / 64 bits
Startech USB SATA
Crucial MX500 SSD
Arduino Mega USB connected

The problem is also mentioned at the hassio github:

https://github.com/home-assistant/operating-system/issues/1011

When booting the RPi with HassOS Development 5 build 5 I get the following
error:

U-Boot 2020.10 (Nov 11 2020 - 13:45:31 +0000)

I have update the U-Boot using Ubuntu to the latest RC and still have this
problem:

This all occurs when the Arduino Mega is connected using USB to the RPi.

When the Arduino Mega is not connected the RPi boots fine like this:

Is this a U-Boot problem? I hope I provided enough information and this
helps the U-Boot project.
