Thank you for bringing support to this board. I tried latest image (Buster and Focal) and couldn't boot.

 

It always ends up with:

 


Gave up waiting for root file system device.  Common problems:
 - Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
   - Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
 - Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)
ALERT!  UUID=e5dd5e3a-06ae-43df-964d-5e3c5dc07a7f does not exist.  Dropping to a shell!
(initramfs)

 

Here is the full boot sequence (2 boots):

Tried with 3 differentt Sandisk Ultra and also with Etcher (Linux and Windows) and Rufus.

 

Anything else I could try?

 

Thanks

 

Same problem with the image "Suitable for Testing - OrangePI R1 PLUS", then i used a image of "RockPI E", and have booted on UART0. But i dont have suficient knowledge on linux to help on development.

Is there any forecast to have a stable version for this card?

Thanks

We need many different profiles of people to run this project and just about any help, help on development. Since in other case developers have to fix web pages, developers have to run projects, developers have to seek for money, developers have to maintain servers, developers have to maintain forum, developers have to moderate forums, developers have to maintain infrastructure, developers have to maintain relations with partners, developers have to waste time on repeated support question, developers have to deal with "customers", ...

This is amateur supported development so this information can't be provided. We don't know when things will become stable - that is the most expensive part. If we stop with development, we only gain - I would say you should do something about.

I recently got my hands on an R1+ and was able to get it booted with a RockPi-E buster image, though I get the same error when I try to use any of the orangepi-r1plus images.

 

Since I have the hardware, I'd be open to making the needed changes to get this particular board to work in a PR to the armbian/build repo. Can anyone give me any pointers to what might need to change in the orangepi-r1plus image to get there?

I think we have to get rid of our Nanopi R2S patch since I would assume mainline version is just fine and cleaned out. Then adjusting R1 related commits accordingly. Also one quick look into u-boot if upstream version is good enough to boot the board properly and remove patches there too.

And it should work.
