Ok, so, I went a little overboard with this but here is my current NanoPi Neo setup. They are all running the latest Ubuntu build, if anyone wants the output of anything let me know. 20 units in total.

Hi guys, I'm a bit lost with this one. I want to setup a way of basically reinstalling a NanoPi Neo over the network. My thought process is: 1. Boot from NFS. 2. In the boot process have a script that runs the nand-sata-install.sh (or modified version of). 3. Reboot with new OS from USB. Now, I'm sure I can get this working, the bit that I am having trouble working out is how the bootloader will know if we should be loading from NFS or USB. Can UBoot grab this from the network? Ideally this will also be done without SSH access. I know this is a complicated problem but any guidance in the right direction will be really appreciated. Thanks!

It also looks like it has eMMC as well though.

Are you sure nothing is actually coming out? Have you used a multimeter to check?

Correct me if I'm wrong but the H3 can boot direct from eMMC without an SD card. If this board is less than $15 it'll be a home run.

There we go. Sorry, wasn't sure what was actually needed so I played it safe and included the same as the ones you linked further above on github.

Lets try this again. Voltage stayed at 1.1v once cpuburn started.

Yep, you're right. Started doing the testing before I read the above mention of voltage drop after running the test. The power source and everything up the the micro usb connection is more than sufficient it just seems like it's the connection jack. I'll get my connection going straight into the headers and report back.

I ran the test and the following are my results. It became completely unresponsive and I had to do a hard restart. This test was conducted at ~10°C ambient temperature.

If yours don't arrive by end of next week I'll express ship you one. I've gone 10 on hand and another shipment already on it's way to me.

While the heat of them seems bad it's a non issue. I'll have to look it up but I believe the max operating temperature is 125°C. I've only been able to make it reach 100°C at full load.

@tkaiser are we better off waiting for you to get your demo boards so the config can be done properly or should I do some testing now and post the results?

They have finally arrived. Sent via the wrong shipping method but they got to me in the end. Just going through and checking them all now.

Mine are delayed as are another posters here. You must just be one of the lucky ones.

Nice! Did you just get the one? I wonder if it's only the 512MB model that's delayed then.
