Building some more custom banana Pi images with the Igor repo. Tried to install plex and it seems to succeed but when finalizing the image these errors occur 0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 21 not upgraded.Need to get 109 MB of archives.After this operation, 0 B of additional disk space will be used.Get:1 http://dev2day.de/pms/wheezy/main plexmediaserver armhf 0.9.12.3.1173-937aac3-1~wheezy [109 MB]Fetched 109 MB in 1min 9s (1,567 kB/s) Selecting previously unselected package plexmediaserver.(Reading database ... 39625 files and directories currently installed.)Unpacking plexmediaserver (from .../plexmediaserver_0.9.12.3.1173-937aac3-1~wheezy_armhf.deb) ...Setting up plexmediaserver (0.9.12.3.1173-937aac3-1~wheezy) ...update-rc.d: using dependency based boot sequencingPlex Media Server is not running (no process found)...Starting Plex Media Server: done[ ok ] Writing boot loader[ ok ] Shrink partition and image to real size with 10% free spaceresize2fs 1.42.9 (4-Feb-2014)The containing partition (or device) is only 306944 (4k) blocks.You requested a new size of 315392 blocks./home/htpcguides/BananaPI-Debian/lib/common.sh: line 385: *4096/1024: syntax error: operand expected (error token is "*4096/1024")[ ok ] Runtime 18 min I can still write the image but it won't let me change the password via SSH and just boots me instead. Any ideas?

Any specific kernel parameters you used to make it work? Ideally I would like modular SATA PMP support and DVB, not have different images for both, hopefully it's possible. Igor, any ideas, do you want the test unit?

For modular PMP support you need to use mainline 3.19.7 (4.0 may work but I haven't tested)

XTL, it is the exact same driver I used on the Pi 2 which is also an ARMv7 device. I am fairly certain this is a kernel issue as others on the lemaker forum have had to recompile kernels to support DVB devices for Bananian.

After installing the drivers I do get this but I can't use it in any dvb app I try. The overall procedure I used was exactly the same as what is working on the Raspberry Pi with Minibian.

I tried to rebuild the Banana Pi image with kernel 3.19.7 adding the configuration from here to the next config before rebuilding. I get a lot of prompts and I said m for modular or Y for yes to each of them. The tuner still isn't showing up in Tvheadend. I can donate some BTC so you have a test unit to help get this working.

I posted a git issue for the Banana Pi image that the mainline kernel wasn't working with OpenMediaVault (at the time I think it was 3.19.3 or .4). It is now working with mainline 3.19.7 so all is resolved. Will release an openmediavault image when I find the time

Trying to build v4.0.4 as kernel tag with mainline for wheezy and it keeps just making another 3.19.7. I deleted the lib dir and that didn't help either, I'm sure I'm just overlooking something simple. Any help?

OK great, not sure what the differences are between all the kernels, only was told that modular PMP support was in 3.19 mainline. Maybe kernel 4 has both PMP modular support and ability to configure DVB stuff?

I just wanted to confirm using your Banana Pi build script, I changed kernel to 3.19.7 and branch to next, modular PMP was enabled by default. It was as simple as adding options ahci-sunxi enable_pmp=1 to /etc/modprobe.d/ahci-sunxi.conf root@bananapi:~# blkid /dev/mmcblk0p1: UUID="a73fb24c-de15-4a1f-a4fe-b6436f8d98f3" TYPE="ext4" /dev/sda1: LABEL="SP PHD U3" UUID="190D-153C" TYPE="vfat" /dev/sdb1: LABEL="SP PHD U3" UUID="1917-2940" TYPE="vfat" /dev/sdc1: LABEL="SP PHD U3" UUID="19E3-1C09" TYPE="vfat" /dev/sdd1: LABEL="SP PHD U3" UUID="1911-0E2F" TYPE="vfat" Will release an image later with some media server tools installed The next step will be to have dvb support added

lol of course, I remembered the configuration file looking different. Will build an image later today hopefully with modular PMP support and report back to you

How do I do that exactly on the Raspberry Pi?

And if I want to build an image that uses a different default password, where would I change the default 1234? Also thanks for adding the AFTERINSTALL (I requested it on github) as it will make building my media image much easier

That is the one I use, very cheap and guaranteed to work. You need at least mainline 3.19.3 kernel I think. You may be able to find it cheaper on AliExpress but they don't take PayPal.

For the headers I need this is an example output of success on Minibian (uses Raspbian kernel AFAIK) [89543.478524] usb 1-1.4: Product: PCTV 292e [89543.483508] usb 1-1.4: Manufacturer: PCTV [89543.487647] usb 1-1.4: SerialNumber: 0011443350 [89543.514239] media: Linux media interface: v0.10 [89543.536748] Linux video capture interface: v2.00 [89543.557306] em28xx: New device PCTV PCTV 292e @ 480 Mbps (2013:025f, interface 0, class 0) [89543.565942] em28xx: DVB interface 0 found: isoc [89543.570852] em28xx: chip ID is em28178 [89545.571235] em28178 #0: EEPROM ID = 26 00 01 00, EEPROM hash = 0x4b0ffc04 [89545.578244] em28178 #0: EEPROM info: [89545.581911] em28178 #0: microcode start address = 0x0004, boot configuration = 0x01 [89545.598224] em28178 #0: AC97 audio (5 sample rates) [89545.603364] em28178 #0: 500mA max power [89545.607392] em28178 #0: Table at offset 0x27, strings=0x146a, 0x1888, 0x0a7e [89545.614932] em28178 #0: Identified as PCTV tripleStick (292e) (card=94) [89545.621718] em28178 #0: dvb set to isoc mode.

Thanks Igor, my understanding from tkaiser on the lemaker forums was this added modular support when using your build scripts lib/config/linux-sunxi-next.config Change CONFIG_AHCI_SUNXI=y to CONFIG_AHCI_SUNXI=m After build is complete, when booting for first time nano /etc/modprobe.d/ahci-sunxi.conf Add this line, save and reboot, to deactivate just remove the line below too options ahci-sunxi enable_pmp=1

Already had blockchain, sent you a donation yesterday (found your address on github ). I hope the H3 can be usable, when I was benchmarking it underperformed the A20 for throughput

That will keep password or reset to 1234?

I have lost track with which Banana Pi image supports modular PMP out of the box. Do any of your images have dvb header support like Raspbian?

I am going to use your Banana Pi image for my media server image release. I would like to know how to re-enable the regenerate ssh keys and resize the SD card on first boot (I want the password to stay the same).

This is excellent Igor, I am starting a forum myself on my site. Can I ask if you are creating an H3 forum for the Orange Pi boards? Also please set up tips for bitcoin for those who don't use PayPal.
