### Download&Compile Uboot
~~~
git clone https://github.com/Lichee-Pi/u-boot.git -b v3s-current
#or git clone https://github.com/Lichee-Pi/u-boot.git -b v3s-spi-experimental
cd u-boot
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- LicheePi_Zero_800x480LCD_defconfig
#or make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- LicheePi_Zero480x272LCD_defconfig
#or make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- LicheePi_Zero_defconfig
make ARCH=arm menuconfig
time make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- 2>&1 | tee build.log
~~~
After success compile, u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin is generated, And you can burn it to 8K offset to boot。
