Irene Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 First time user here. I got a Rock64 board and flashed Armbian_20.08.1_Rock64_focal_current_5.8.6_desktop.img using Etcher to an SD card. When I try to boot, nothing happens. If I examine the SD card on my Linux PC, there is only one partition on it and it appears to be a kernel image. I assumed that the .img file would have the U-Boot partition as well. Is there a different type of image file I should be using that would contain everything that I need to boot? If not, how do I create such an image? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in case of Rock64 ... there are a few quality issues hidden behind different hardware revisions. Try legacy kernel 4.4.y images or go this path: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irene Posted September 16, 2020 Author Share Posted September 16, 2020 Thank you, Igor. I tried a 4.4.213 image and that worked. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
