Hi, I am trying to get my Xu4 to boot from an emmc card, I am using Armbian Bionic mainline kernel 4.9.y. I can write this to SD card, and it boots and runs OK. I prepared the emmc card using the inbuilt system nand-sata-install script. The emmc card will not boot. I tried a couple of other iso.s same non result. Checking the forum I found this thread started last year:- This thread was HIJACKED by Tkaiser , who turned it into a discussion about OMV, and I cannot see a successful conclusion to the original boot problem! Please can you advise me of the method to get my emmc card to boot on my xu4, using the current kernels and not having to revert to a 3 series! many thanks P

Hi On my Tinkerboard running ARMBIAN 5.36 user-built Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS 4.13.16-rockchip The command "echo ds1307 0x68 > /sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-1/new-device" FAILS Because my ARMBIAN has xxxx/new_device NOT xxxx/new-device Strange? RTC works ok id echo to new_device !! cheers Patrick

Hi, I have installed Wheesy 3.4.108 on my Banana Pro. connected to it using SSH from xterm on my linux box, did various housekeeping, set up user squeeze Installed logitech media server works OK Installled Squeezelite ---- needed to set up alsa, ran sudo alsamixer, Alsamixer ran OK but when I hit Fkeys on host machine to select various alsa menus, alsamixer terminates and drops back to Banana pro CLI, obviosly F key keybindings are not what alsamixer expects. Fails under both xterm and putty and on two linux host systems. What do I do to make banana pro use the Function keys F1-F6 to work as alsa requires? I note that there are lots of problems about this on Google (Function keys under ssh), but cannot find a working solution for this case. Help would be graterfully received thansk, Patrick Solution, It was as easy as:- On the Banana Pro ssh CLI enter TERM=xterm All the Function keys in Alsamixer now work correctly Duh! P
