Odroid C2 never starting after a soft reboot (reboot command)

[yandritos]

Odroid C2 never starting after a soft reboot (reboot command).

 

I have the same problem which other user is having with the Odroid C4

 

 

With the last kernel I have 5.10.102-meson64 the Odroid C2 never boots again after the "reboot" command, I need to unplug and plug again the power suply.

 

Thanks and best regards,

David

Moved to P2P help.

To me this sounds like a kernel issue, not an individual support request. Or can't it be replicated by others?

 

I see that the smoke tests go through: https://github.com/armbian/build/runs/5793093247?check_suite_focus=true

But this is "edge" kernel, not "current".

 

@yandritos

Can you verify that the edge kernel solves it:

apt install linux-image-edge-meson64 linux-dtb-edge-meson64 linux-u-boot-odroidc2-edge

[blacki2]

I can't reproduce this issue on my Odroid C2. It reboots just fine on kernel 5.10.102-meson64.

 

Have to add I am still on buster userspace, so can't say yet if it works on bullseye:

After a confirmation with other user in the dietpi fork, in Odroid C2, the reboot works for him and this this kernel only if the emmc memory is used, if the same iso is installed in the sd card, then the reboot is not working having the same problem I have. Blacki2 are you using emmc or microSD card? @blacki2

I am using emmc, too. I will test with sdcard and report back.

 

Edit1:

So I did some more testing.

 

First, I tried Armbian_22.02.1_Odroidc2_bullseye_current_5.10.102.img on microSD card.

Difference I see between microSD cold boot vs. microSD reboot:

Same issue on my C2, I've noticed the Ubuntu 20.04 from Hardkernel doesn't have the issue, would there be anything worth comparing the logs there?

so obviously same situation on odroid N2+. Cold boot works fine for Armbian but never soft reboot. eMMC.

Hello!

I watch this thread since a year, so far no update and the issue still exists in Bookworm for a Odroid-C2  booting into the current bookworm image on MicroSD ( as of writing this, that's Armbian 23.8 Bookworm ).

Is there any chance of this being solved? I tried with a Kingston (32GB), an Intenso (8GB), a Sandisk (16GB) and a Toshiba (64GB) MicoSD card.

If this cannot be solved...:

Any recommends where to get a Toshiba or Sandisk eMMC module?

I wasn't very lucky with the Odroid ones for my N2 and N2+, but didn't find any other compatible eMMC modules so far.

 

And I'm not planning on soldering some BGA chips out and in.

Well, eMMC time it is then.

fresh installation on emmc, reboot works fine.

It happens also with the latest Linux 6.7.4-edge-meson64 kernel. This problem could be related to a power switch which could be optionally connected to the J4 pin?
