And maybe stupid question: I can create flashable zip through AML tools 4.0.0. Is it possible to create flashable zip without bootloader: boot, system only?

Yes absolutely, just delete the unnecessary files from the zip directly.

I thought that system.img has to be linked to bootloader.img oder boot.img in any way in order to successfully boot up...

Maybe...I am not that deep in building

The box does not boot mostly in 2 cases, wrong bootloader, wrong dtb. The boot process and communication are via environment variables and corresponding registers.

Thanks, so if I understood right: environment variables are fix (system related), and they are set up in dtb/bootloader. Of course if there is sth wrong because Registers arent set up correctly in dtb then device wont boot correctly.

Then any boot.img/system.img can be set upon individual device dtb?

These all are connected. You cannot obviously use 3 different things altogether but when they are made from the same sdk and code, they usually work even when replaced.
