Installing Ambian Bookworm to NVME / M2 SSD
AaronNGray replied to AaronNGray's topic in Banana Pi M7
I turned off the errors readonly mode off in `/etc/fstab` and its running along the stress --verbose --hdd 4` test as suspected. I am wondering if errors can be detected and acted upon in a different manor by the filing system ? I may try btrfs as amother test when I can do so. -

@Igor It would be lovely to have temperature monitoring on the System Monitor Resources page ! -

@eselarm Many thanks I will follow these leads up either tomorrow if I get time or next week if not. https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_enterprise_linux/6/html/power_management_guide/aspm Okay I need to try 6.1.84-vendor then ! Ordered a USB-C PD analyser, many thanks ! -

Installing Ambian Bookworm to NVME / M2 SSD
AaronNGray replied to AaronNGray's topic in Banana Pi M7
I have run CPU stress tests starting at 33.3 degrees C, with 5V (12V) fan on top of metal case. `stress --cpu 4` stabalizing at 55.4 degrees C and `stress --cpu 8` reachiing 57.3 degrees C, with a fan on top of the device and watched the loading and temperature with `armbianmonitor -m` and it seems quite stable. Now have run `stress --verbose --hdd 1` for 20 minutes so far reaching 45.3 degrees C, stabalizing a 44.4 degrees C. run `stress --verbose --hdd 2` for 20 minutes so far rising to 56.4 degrees C, CPU clk 1800/2352 MHz, load about 2.63 max. Waiting for temperature to reduce to 33 degrees C then runnig `stress --verbose --hdd 4` `stress --verbose --hdd 4` is sky rocketting in 5 minutes temperature hitting 62.8 degrees C, CPU clk 1800/2352 MHz, load about 5.00 max. Okay fallen over after 8 minutes, inconclusive results as a result : ( I rerun this test, okay its not temperature it time and load as is susspected, but load and temperature are also a crashing factor for the BananaPi-M7. I would like to monitor the temperature of the NVME. Need to take in to account loading and kernel versions ....., I was getting this happen in less than 5 minutes on Bookworm without a GUI with `stress --hdd 4` I cannot seem to do a select all or highlight more than a pages worth of console text on Gnome, otherwise I would have provided detailed results. This process and instrumentation would be good to automate. I got some DS18B20 TO92 Digital Temperature Sensors which I would like to be able to write a script to enable internal and external case monitoring. I need to run this on debian again but need a GUI to perform the tests without writing a script to combine `stress` and `armbianmonitor -m` Do we have a kernel version that was though to be stable ? Also it might be worth looking at OrangePi 5 and see what results that community is getting. -

@Igor Either a databsae or even just a wiki page for each board/device with tables for OS, release, kernel and support would go some way to satisfying this requirement. -

Installing Ambian Bookworm to NVME / M2 SSD
AaronNGray replied to AaronNGray's topic in Banana Pi M7
@going yes hopefully I will get round to doing this stage. I was a low level programmer but never mastered the Linux Kernel other than the basics. Hopefully I can act as a tester and we can get this thing moving forward. -
Installing Ambian Bookworm to NVME / M2 SSD
AaronNGray replied to AaronNGray's topic in Banana Pi M7
@Igor Its a shame there was not a public record of this. I saw the https://www.armbian.com/bananapi-m7/ page, looked at the Armbian forum for issues, saw none and presumed the board was okay. We should really have detailed uptodate reports on all boards. -
Installing Ambian Bookworm to NVME / M2 SSD
AaronNGray replied to AaronNGray's topic in Banana Pi M7
@eselarm - The PSU is a 45Watt PSU and am pretty sure it is fine. I had issues with PSU current rating and voltage drop on BananaPi M3's It seems to be okay on bootup but fails after running `stress --verbose --hdd 4' after a period of time. Looks like according to `/etc/fstab` it becomes a readonly filing system on errors. I will go through everything methodically now and post `armbianmonitor -u` reports. -
Installing Ambian Bookworm to NVME / M2 SSD
AaronNGray replied to AaronNGray's topic in Banana Pi M7
@Igor @amazingfateokay whats happening on installing to eMMC, then to NVME, is on an 'sudo apt-get update' and 'sudo apt-get upgrade' either at the eMMC stage or the NVME stage the kernel is being upgraded and it no longer supports NVME. I also had a totally unstable state at NVME stage after presumably a cron job and bash was not recognising any external commands. -
Installing Ambian Bookworm to NVME / M2 SSD
AaronNGray replied to AaronNGray's topic in Banana Pi M7
@amazingfate I have the board booting from eMMC, but /dev/nvme0n1 or any /dev/nvme* does not exist. I have installed a Samsung 970 EVO Plus 2 TB PCIe NVMe M.2 Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) (MZ-V7S2T0) device on the board. -
Installing Ambian Bookworm to NVME / M2 SSD
AaronNGray replied to AaronNGray's topic in Banana Pi M7
@Igor I need to understand what I am doing first as I dont have a lot of time I and also to verify the method. @amazingfate seems to know what he is doing and it would be good to document it first. Then we can look at the install-script., which might actually work anyway ? @Igor Please read the whole of this thread if you have not already done so. -
Installing Ambian Bookworm to NVME / M2 SSD
AaronNGray replied to AaronNGray's topic in Banana Pi M7
@amazingfateIs it possible to eleborate on the details of installing to a fdisked NVME please ? on what device and partition does the /boot/armbianEnv.txt live and how do I specify the UUID. Do I create a boot partition on the NVME as well as a swap and main/root partition ? Its would be nice to create a HOWTO document on how to do all this with possible variations, Many thanks for your help. -
Installing Ambian Bookworm to NVME / M2 SSD
AaronNGray replied to AaronNGray's topic in Banana Pi M7
@amazingfateHi, can I fdisk the NVME SSD as I want to have a separate SWAP partition. How do I get the eMMC to boot the NVME SSD ir will it booted from the on on board "Masked ROM" ? Sorry not replied for nearly a week : | -
Installing Ambian Bookworm to NVME / M2 SSD
AaronNGray replied to AaronNGray's topic in Banana Pi M7
Hi, I thought the eMMC is separate from the MaskedROM and the eMMC is write programmable while running the device booted from the uSDCard. Where as the MaskedROM boots either the SDCard or the eMMC in that order. I am actually looking to be able to either :- i ) boot directly from the NVME M2 SSD ii) boot a bootloader on eMMC that then boots from the NVME M2 SSD -
I am trying to install Ambian on to the BananaPi-M7 to eMMC using option 6. there is no option for NVME / M2 SSD. I had a failed install as the uSDCard image was 256GB larger than the eMMC, so it balked. I tried a 128GB uSDCard, followed by a 64GB uSDCard, but got the same error each time even on the 64GB one. I seem to have two partitions on the eMMC, mmcblk0boot0, and mmcblk0boot2 now,. I am not sure if they were on the boards eMMC originally or what the boot sequence for the board is If the Masked ROM tries to boot the uSDCard if present and if that fails it boots the eMMC ? Do I clear mmcblk0 and try again with the 64GB uSDcard ? Or is mmcblk0 required to boot mmcblk1 ?

Hi, I am wondering if people have tried the Banana-Pi M7 board with `armbian monitor -m` and `stress --cpu 8` in different ssh or window terminals, both with bare board, with metal case, and also with different kernels ? I have had temperature issues with Banana-Pi M3 RockChip boards, and am wondering if M7's suffer the same.

I am interested in hardware video support and wether ffmpeg has hardware support on the RK3588 and Mali G610MC4 GPU. And was wondering if someone whould be interested in giving me the output of a few tests for me please ? ``` ffmpeg -hide_banner -encoders ``` ``` ffmpeg -hide_banner -decoders ``` ``` ffmpeg -hide_banner -hwaccels ``` Many thanks in advance.

@going I have an uptime of 10 days on this :- Armbian_23.10_Bananapim3_bookworm_edge_6.4.10_minimal.zip

@going A millivoltmeter and knowledge of the measuring point is something that cannot be programmed and provided. This might help this is BPi-M3 v1.2, so there maybe other versions available from BananaPi themselves ? https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4PAo2nW2KfnY2dSS1ZzUlpyTDQ/view?pli=1&resourcekey=0-WdF9yYKr5CF7-5VDdLakMA

@going I am getting "Too slow Downloading speed" repeatedly aborting when very nearly downloaded. I put it up as an issue against your repo :- https://github.com/The-going/armbian-build/issues/21 Anyway I have a working build now and can reproduce your work at this end which is very good news ! Thank you !
