Olimex A20 - CPUs

Hi,

I think there is something wrong with Linux OlimexA20 4.2.0-sunxi #1 SMP Wed Sep 16 10:57:53 CEST 2015 armv7l GNU/Linux.

Why there is only one core working?

Because there was a bug in upgrade script. You need to upgrade boot loader to the "next". Remove the one without "next" just in case. dpkg -r linux-u-boot-lime2 or ...

 

Lime 1 with A20 and 512Mb RAM

apt-get install linux-u-boot-lime-next

or

 

Lime 2 with A20 and 1024Mb RAM

apt-get install linux-u-boot-lime2-next

Micro

apt-get install linux-u-boot-micro-next

Reboot.

It works!

 

Thanks a lot for your work!
