nobicycle Posted October 26, 2016 Posted October 26, 2016 Hi All, Armbian boots fine from SDcard but when I run nand-sata-install the script complains that it has no target. A #ls /dev/mmcblk* shows /dev/mmcblk0 and /dev/mmcblk0P1 When mounted, just to see, the mmcblk0P1 partition contains the usual linux directories, so I suppose this partition is definitely the SDcard No EMMC device is present. Could this be due to me performing, yesterday a: dd if=/mnt/ArchLinux_Minimal.img of=/dev/mmcblk1 bs=4M ? I did this because I read somewhere that booting up from SDCARD followed by a dd worked in some cases. Note I originally wanted to run Arch, but since there is apparently no support at orangepi.org, after 1 week, I decided to switch to Armbian. Does EMMC have some boot sector / partition table that I have overwritten? Regards
UnixOutlaw Posted October 27, 2016 Posted October 27, 2016 I just got my 2E the other day - did nand-sata-install yesterday - and it worked flawlessly... Maybe try doing a "factory" install of Android to the eMMC (no idea how you do that - I hate Android - only use it because I "have" to on my phone) - then boot Armbian off SD card, then try the nand-sata-install again? My 2E came with Android on the eMMC (everything in Chinese)... Personally - love how fast the 2E boots off eMMC... Love Armbian too... when I get more "financial" I'll chip in to the project...
Igor Posted October 27, 2016 Posted October 27, 2016 Does EMMC have some boot sector / partition table that I have overwritten? Our script should do everything, but if it does not, we need to figure out why ... In case your eMMC is not failed, it should work without a problem. Boot from SD card and provide logs: armbianmonitor -u
