Helios64 won't boot

[kabo]

Hi,

 

For some reason my Helios64 took a nose dive today, so I hit the reset button and it wouldn't boot up. Plugged in to the serial console and this came out:

I'm guessing the relevant lines are

Any ideas on what to do from here please? I'm booting from an SD card which I have checked that it's OK by plugging it into my stationary computer and checking the fs.

 

Crossing my fingers that there's just some command I need to run to generate some file and it'll just work again...

@kabo is this new fresh sd card image?
I assume it is not, looking on u-boot build date that is quite old. Did you recently update & upgrade the Armbian?

You can try my instruction on following thread:

 

[kabo]

OK, so mounting the microSD on my computer, cd boot/dtb/rockchip and running sudo ln -s rk3399-kobol-helios64.dtb rk3399-helios64.dtb allowed me to boot the NAS again

 

I run sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade regularly, but wasn't aware I needed to run the armbian-config thing to update the bootloader.

 

Thanks for the help!
