Hi, I recently reinstalled an orange pi 2+ with Armbian Stretch mainline kernel 4: root@ted1090-7:~# uname -a Linux ted1090-7 4.14.18-sunxi #24 SMP Fri Feb 9 16:24:32 CET 2018 armv7l GNU/Linux I also installed it on EMMC (this way, with this u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin). Now this orange pi crashes every couple of days (sometimes with a couple of hours). This orange pi use to run with Armbian legacy 3.x kernel on EMMC without any issue: pi@ted1090-6 ~ $ uname -a Linux ted1090-6 3.4.113-sun8i #18 SMP PREEMPT Wed Jan 24 22:10:49 CET 2018 armv7l GNU/Linux Exactly the same applications are installed (dump1090 and dump1090-tools). The applications do run okay until the orange pi crashes. I have several more orange pi's 2 +, running exactly the same software on the Armbian legacy 3.x kernel installed on EMMC without any issue. I would like to know why my orange pi crashes with the Armbian Stretch mainline kernel 4? I monitored the files systems and searched the log files for a reason, but I didn't find a cause. Does anyone know why I pi crashes? Here is my system info: http://ix.io/1lxa root@ted1090-7:~# armbianmonitor -u System diagnosis information will now be uploaded to http://ix.io/1lxa Kind regards!

Can I safely download a "u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin" file for my orange pi 2 plus via this link? https://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/armhf/daily/u-boot/

pffff... Thanks Igor! I just booted without SD card and it worked ;-) I did not know it was that simple ;-) Now running on the internal 16GB emmc memory. Thanks!

Hi, I am a newbie with u-boot, Armbian and Orange Pi. This is my first post in this forum. I want to thank everyone involved in the development of Armbian! I am running Armbian on a Orange pi plus 2 from SD card. That works fine, but I would like to install the OS on the internal 16GB eMMC memory. I tried to perform the instructions that were posted on http://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/1070-install-to-emmc/?p=8433: - Update Armbian (using apt-get update / upgrade). - Download the U-boot file provided by lonix for the orangePi Plus version from https://mega.nz/#!nEhzARbL!b4GCocqV_DlikufwdB_ajrSFwIjF1QS5BA57K0MCbm4 - Flash the u-boot file: root@orangepiplus2:# sudo dd if=u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin of=/dev/mmcblk1 bs=1024 seek=8- Immediately after I performed: root@orangepiplus2:# sudo nand-sata-install - After the nand-sata-install I performed a reboot. But I am pretty sure that I did not carry out the instructions in the correct way, because I am still running the OS from the 8GB SD card :-( root@orangepiplus2:# mount | grep mmc /dev/mmcblk0p1 on / type ext4 (rw,noatime,nodiratime,errors=remount-ro,commit=600) <= 8GB SD card root@orangepiplus2:# fdisk /dev/mmcblk0 Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.25.2).
