[NanoPi M4 - PiTFT]

Did you ever figure this out?

[Customize released images or recreate released images]

Thanks for sharing this.  I got to mount the image and when I was trying to install iftop as in your example, apt gets stuck on Waiting for headers as in the following - any apt command, even apt update gets stuck waiting for headers.  Is this just a temporary issue or is something else wrong:

 

root@NanoPi-M4:/# apt install iftop -y

[Customize released images or recreate released images]

Hi, I wanted to know if there was an easy way to customize an existing released image or rebuild a released image.  I know you can use the customize image option when building, but I would like to not build the latest nightly, but instead just build whatever was released. 

 

The customization I am looking to do is installing additional packages, downloading some personal python code, setting timezone and other similar settings. 

 

I searched the forums, but didn't see anything helpful, any info would be appreciated. 

 

Thanks.

No worries Igor, I wasn't sure if it was I that was doing something wrong.

 

I wish I could help, this is clearly meant for smarter people - good luck and Thank you for all of your efforts.

[Building an image]

Hi, so in the last 2 days or so, whenever I try to build for the nanopi m4, I get a new prompt for what looks like kernel config items.  Even though I am choosing to use default kernel config. So I thought it was my issue somehow, I got rid of the vagrant image and completely re-downloaded everything, once the compressing if the linux kernel finishes, I get the prompts and I am certainly not sure what options to pick. 

 

Is there any guidance you can provide? 

 

Thanks. 

[Nand-sata-install Automation]

Hi, is there a way to automate how the nand-sata-install works - for example, if my image is on an SD card and I want to flash my emmc card  on boot - can that be automated somehow?  I tried looking at the documentation, but no luck.

 

Thank you!

Thanks, I guess my machine isnt as fast as I thought ;( clean build took about 4 hours, I modified the /etc/network/interfaces file and rebuilt and that took about an hour.

[Building an image]

Hi there, can someone comment on usually how long it takes to build an image?  I know there are several factors at play - but what are some times people have gotten in making an SD card image with a clean build.

 

Just trying to set expectations - I am on a quad core 1.5GZ machine with 8 gigs of ram on SSD.

 

Thanks
