+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Depending on the board version U-Boot set variable $fdtfile to either
+starfive/jh7110-starfive-visionfive-2-v1.2a.dtb or
+starfive/jh7110-starfive-visionfive-2-v1.3b.dtb.
+
+To overrule this selection the variable can be set manually and saved in the
+environment
+
+::
+
+    setenv fdtfile my_device-tree.dtb
+    env save
+
+or the configuration variable CONFIG_DEFAULT_FDT_FILE can be used to provide
+a default value.
