images NOT working on Orange pi mini 2

atta2016 · July 14, 2015

Hi there,

I tried your images for orange pi,

but doesnt work on orange pi mini 2.

I tried ALL the images on the factory site,

but somehow they placed copies of images for other models. (debian images are the same)

Only image so far worked: lubuntu,

but when i login, ssh session is killed. (as well root/orangepi as orangepi/orangepi)

its driving me nuts to get this working.

Any ideas?

Great work btw!

There is no community support for Orange Pi 2 with H3 chip. All images that currently exists are build with (the one and only) old and buggy kernel from Allwinner.

I hope we will get support within kernel 4.x soon which is the only real solution for this board I guess.

BTW. Thanks
