Hi, everyone

 

I have 2 rockpi s based boards, and I tried to apply an overlay to one.

It actually compiled, I rebooted and the nothing more.

I connected serial, e it was on U-boot, spitting this:

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

U-boot seems unable to load the device tree, but to my knowledge, a broken overlay shouldn't break anything

Any help is welcome

 

Thx

I managed to restore armbian to the board that couldn't boot.

The boards are this model.

 

The situation is this, now:

  1. board 1:
    • Booting in Armbian, now clean, no overlay installed  with armbianEnv.txt:
      •   Reveal hidden contents
    • This board seems to be working, but eth0 seems to be on a different physical device from before all this trouble, meaning now the eth0 is on a different  real ethernet port
  2. board 2:
    • Booting Armbian,  with armbianEnv.txt:
      •   Reveal hidden contents

         

    • Same problem with the eth0

 

On both boards I have problems with detecting SD card via U-boot, while no problems from Armbian

 

I hope this clarifies the situation 

 

[UPDATE]

 

I managed to get the SDs working, Uboot doesn't like when booted with the SD inserted, seem like....

Also, I physically disabled the 2nd ethernet port, now eth0 is where it should be, but still no connection...

 

[UPDATE 2]

 

I'm trying to get the ethernet to work, any of the two

This is the IP A printout:

$ ip a

Hello small question.

In Armbian 22.11 there is info about improved support for rockpi s .

What it means ? past few monhts the image of armbian with kernel newer that 4.4 was unable boot on older board with RK3308 .

On RK3308B-S it was ok.

after 22.11 is there support for older RK3308 or not ?

Github radxa dont say anything about it ... 

radxa github releases

I resolved the issue, on my case at least:
The Uboot instance doesn't like the SD to be inserted while booting, so it couldn't detect it.

Simply leave the SD out, boot to uboot, insert the SD then boot to mmc1(SD)

 

For the double IP problem,the error was on my part. I assumed that the eth0 interface from linux was the physical Ethernet labled Eth1 and eth1 in linux was Eth2 physical. That's wrong:

  • linux eth0 => Physical Ethernet2
  • linux eth1 => Physical Ethernet1

With this, the problems are resolved
