  1. Hi John - did you find a solution? I'm hoping to make a backup of the eMMC to have flashed to the board by the manufacturer, so I'd also like to know if this is possible.
  2. Hi all, I'm hoping to backup an Orange Pi Plus 2E eMMC to an img file for the manufacturer to write to eMMC for a bulk order. It looks like this post is the most recent regarding backup of eMMC to SD / img file. Is this still the recommended method? Thanks!
  3. Hi all, I'm trying to use an Orange Pi PC Plus to drive an RS485 serial converter and ultimately talk Modbus to a sensor device. I have managed to get flow control enabled on the port, but the polarity of the RTS signal is active LOW, whereas the converter I have requires active HIGH. Is there any way to invert the polarity of the RTS pin for the UART? I think it can be done via ioctl call in C programs, but I need this applied at a system level to be compatible with some third party software. Thanks in advance!
  4. Great -I think I get it now. Thanks again!
  5. Thanks @Igor! So.. is there currently no NEXT image, but there will be once the nightly builds are accepted as ready, at which point they will become NEXT?
  6. Sorry, I wasn't very clear in my last post, I'm still very new to all this stuff so hopefully you can bear with me... Please correct me if I'm wrong, as I understand it: the stable or "default" release includes kernel 3.4.113 the nightly build uses the dev branch, which has kernel 4.11.3 the custom build can use either branch, but I'd need to use the dev branch for kernel 4.11.3 Which of these options is better from the perspective of upgrading to a stable release once 4.X kernel becomes the "default"? Thanks again!
  7. Thanks for the quick responses! I'll certainly try to test my application running one of these builds for as long as possible before deploying. On that note - I successfully built armbian using the dev kernel and installed it, and docker, which is now Docker is working; I also tested the nightly dev build and it ran Docker also, but the login message was very clear about not using it in a production system. What would be the recommended way of getting a Docker compatible kernel? I.e. safest path for most vanilla, repeatable, process, facilitating future upgrade?
  8. Hi all, I'm considering using Armbian in an Orange Pi Plus 2E and have hit a stumbling block with Docker support. I've tested the nightly/dev build and note that it has a sufficiently new kernel to support Docker, but I'd like to know if anyone can vouch for it's stability and suitability for a product that will be deployed into the field. Can anyone advise: - how long has the dev branch supported docker (i.e. 2 weeks or 6 months)? - any known issues with the dev branch beyond 3d rendering / audio (my application is headless so that's ok) - any idea when a stable mainline build will be available for the OPIPlus 2E? I understand that you're all volunteering your time to make this work, so I hope this isn't seen this as a nag/feature request. I thank you all for your time and dedication in producing such a versatile and useful product. If you can help me out with any of these questions I'd be very appreciative!
