LittleP0P Posted May 29, 2020 Posted May 29, 2020 So I Bought a tv stick and used it on a tv off and on over the years and at one point wanted to run Linux on it and see if I could get it to recognize a usb network card and run asterisk or something. i tried all sorts of things gave up. Its been a long while now I still have this and a A10S version and I have scoured the internet trying to find some sort of support. Heck of alot of support for diffrent A10 a20 stuff but almost nothing for the MK802 tv stick. I think i bought mine when they first came out. Can someone give me a link or push me in the right direction. i would love to run Arbian on it. i am a huge Debian fan I run all my servers for clients on Debian and have build many inhouse and online VM Debian servers for various tasks!
LittleP0P Posted May 31, 2020 Author Posted May 31, 2020 I have 2 I bought the original then bough another a year later but what I got was a A10s it was buggy. I sort of left it. but somone should know what to do to get started. I am reading what I can but I t would be nice if somene has something simular enough with a guide that could get me going. really want to run some arbian on this thing

LittleP0P Posted June 1, 2020 Author Posted June 1, 2020 I have and am familiar with the site many years ago I was on it. Currently I need some idea what i need to do not just here is the board here is a file! What I need to know is where to start. I am told I need a certain file with the configuration or something and I have to make a bootable sd card .. I need to hold the reset button a certain way to power up. i need some sort of tutorial that walks me though these parts and finnaly the version of armbian that would work with my device.https://linux-sunxi.org/Rikomagic_mk802 I scour the net i find ubuntu images and some old setup videos (I did one for a newer better after market firmware for android and it worked but really i do not rember how or could not tell you where I got the tutorial to do it. I imagine its gone. i have not had much luck finding anything or anyone playing with a mk802 like me trying to load a recent version of armbian. I am willing to try it and document it here I just need some thing more then the manufacturer page. I was hoping some tutorial or someone who did it with a similar device all the steps required in the certain order.. anything.. Note I m a new user and it took a while to get verified and my post published now I am " You have reached the maximum number of posts you can make per day. " seems to be a limit of 1 per day. This does not help me so please i have to wait once per day to respond (cruel punishment for new people) I sure hope it stops a whack of spam
