  1. So this is what I have opened from the box yesterday (the box has been received open too, maybe by the reworker or somebody else. No seal, just open box). You see that used CPU, with unreadable P/N, you are afraid and test the board, it doesn't even boot, and you understand what is Olimex Quality. People shall know because that because for 80€, this is what you can expect as a "brand new device" and "quality" from Olimex.
  2. So... How to say. I am VERY upset. I have bought this 2nd Olimex card, and no boot, no green LED, nothing. 80€ (because of the TVA + transport) for nothing. So 2x80€ = 140€ for nothing. This is my second experience with Olimex, and the second disappointment (not enough information about NAND boot on the first, PCB faulty on the second). Even worse, the chip seems already used, reconditioned. I will contact the Customer Assotiation because I can't accept so much lack of unprofessional where a Raspberry would have cost half as much to operate out of the box. I will check more cards with SATA and try to see customers feedback before I buy from a non serious company.
  3. Thank you Igor, looks like you know very well this board ! I have bought the eMMC, because according what you say, it seems to be much more convenient to boot from eMMC with nand-sata-install. I hope to feedback as soon as I will receive the shipment and install armbian into the eMMC, at least to confirm.
  4. Thank you for your feedback ! So what to do ? If you can confirm that eMMC is more stable than SD/SD card, then I am ready to buy one. I really want to boot from the board with updated kernel to be up-to-date about security, and have SATA support. Could you please confirm that eMMC is a better solution ? If so, is it possible to boot from eMMC ? and how ? Sorry to insist, I really like this open-source world, and I can repeat from a simple tutorial, but from pages and pages of documentation (to do "A", you need to know how to do "B", and to do "B", you need to know how to do "C", etc.), I need more experience, I think you can understand it. Please feel free to feedback, thank you again.
  5. Hello, First of all, please understand that I am a beginner level. My project is to make a NextcloudPlus on a Lime2 NAND version because of the following reasons : - Lime2 is Open source board, so no third party code into it - NAND version because I don't want to rely on a micro SD card, as it can be unstable for too many read/write (NextcloudPlus indexes a lot with sync). - SATA version because I would like to store data through a SATA HDD (I feel it is more stable than USB). So, I have tried to make : nand-sata-install ...but after shutting down and removing the micro SD cart, it was impossible to boot from NAND (the board doesn't even boot). I have tried to understand why on the doc/forum/etc., but it is difficult due to my beginner skills. My question is simple : can somebody please summarize a step-by-step guide to install armbian and be able to boot from NAND ? Which version to download (to boot on NAND and have SATA support), and what to do ? Thank you very much for your help.
  6. Thank you very much, so just install armbian and write in a terminal : curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nextcloud/nextcloudpi/master/install.sh | bash is really fine for me (I have already installed Nextcloud in a Linux computer with "old school" method, I mean Maria DB, https setup, etc.). So maybe you can imagine how I am happy to see only 1 command to install it ! Thank you very much. Today, I don't have a lot of time to install it (I just move home), but I hope to do it and feedback if this board support well NCP.
  7. Dear Nacho, First of all, thank you so much to make NextcloudPlus available for many many many boards. Does it mean now that there is an image available for Lime2 for example ? I mean, ready to use, or do I still need to install armbian, then open a Terminal and write : git clone https://github.com/armbian/build ncpbian cd ncpbian wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nextcloud/nextcloudpi/master/armbian.sh -O userpatches/customize-image.sh ./compile.sh docker BOARD=odroidxu4 BRANCH=next KERNEL_ONLY=no KERNEL_CONFIGURE=no RELEASE=stretch BUILD_DESKTOP=no Thank you for your feedback.
