guoliangzhong Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 I have a X96 air P1 TV box，I burn Armbian_20.10_Arm-64_focal_current_5.9.0_desktop.img to SD card and rename u-boot-s905x2-s922 to u-boot.ext it boot successful (use meson-sm1-sei610.dtb)，when I was run /root/install-aml.sh write the systemOS to emmc it also can boot successful，but the wifi and hdmi audio don't work，so i search from google and download a new u-boot file name with u-boot-new，I copy the u-boot-new file to SD card and rename it to u-boot.ext then insert the sd card to tv box, the wifi and hdmi audio work great, I'm very excited, but when I run /root/install-aml.sh again, the tv box boot failed , it endless echo "missing envitonment variable: bootfile" and "retrieving file: prelinux.cfg/xxx" in boot process, finally it say "DMA reset timeout" and "Config file not found " , I guess this is boot script bug, how can I setting the env var or how to fix this error ? forgive my poor English, thanks！ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s-petersen Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 (edited) I would look at the install script, and see if they are the same, after that, look at the config files and compare them.. Maybe you can copy some files from from one installation to the other to patch it, If successful, post here to help others. I don't have the same box, so I can't really help much.

I don't know the manjaro setup. Also, given that Armbian isn't supported on TV Boxes and especially for amlogic based boxes where the latest build is 18 months old, why are you trying to use armbian? Why not just go with what manjaro has? It looks like from the logs that with this other u-boot that it can't detect the internal emmc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaattaalan Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 I am getting the same error too. I use the x96 air 2g_100m (s905x3) version. I used Armbian for amlogic(bulls_eye, xfce) boxes as specified in the tutorial here. I tried with many dtbs, (it even had one named x96 air) all of the didn't work. So I tried the u-boot.ext file from this Manjaro for Arm tutorial. The link for the .tar. This combined with 'meson-sm1-x96-air.dtb' file worked great and I was able to boot from SD card without any hiccups. And for the first time, the onboard wifi was working flawlessly. I could only get it to work with Coreelec before. With this, I decided to write it to emmc . I used the 'install-aml.sh' to do this and it completed successfully. But when I rebooted from emmc, it was showing the same error as the OP here. I don't know much about u-boot files and dtbs, hence I stumbled upon this discussion. I thought I could provide some extra info to help . Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
