Akula Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Anyway, so here is another i can't log in my Orange Pi Zero, tried both images with Etcher, So where am i? It's a bit weird, i try various USB wall chargers and sd cards, but it always get to the same point: Permission denied, please try again. root@192.168.1.19's password: So let me ask you guys something, am i doing something Stupid, if i plug this into my modem, i can ssh to it yeah? there nothing i need to do? So i Nmaped it and sore that the vnc port is open, so password for that is 1234 as well? Like i went through the source, and i can see that the password is 1234, so the only thing that i can put it to is the setup of the sdcard but Etcher verifies the image right? So really i must have some bad powered usb ports? How correct would you say my analysis is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riskable Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 If you're seeing that a VNC port is listening you probably installed the wrong OS image. When I boot a fresh Armbian Ubuntu Xenial image the ethernet port will use DHCP to get IPv4 only (which is a bug I think--should also be getting IPv6) and the only thing listening is SSH. Wifi isn't enabled by default (since it doesn't know which SSID to connect to). I recommend trying today's beta image: http://image.armbian.com/betaimages/Armbian_5.24.161130_Orangepizero_Ubuntu_xenial_3.4.113.7z(taken from here: http://image.armbian.com/betaimages/) I also recommend connecting to the serial console over UART (http://linux-sunxi.org/File:OPi_Zero_UART.jpg): You can pick up a cable that will work here: http://a.co/78ua1Pa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajprakash Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Sounds strange. I downloaded the Armbian_5.24_Orangepizero_Debian_jessie_3.4.113.7z image straight from the armbian site. Double checked the sha256sum. I used WinDiskImager32 to write the image to a Transcend Premium 400x 16GB UHS-1 microSD card. Put it in my OPi0 (I have both a 256MB and a 512MB version, and the same thing worked for each), plugged in Ethernet, plugged in a 2A microusb power supply, checked my router DHCP list for the IP, and ssh connected to that IP immediately with root:1234. I had no issues on either of my OPi Zeros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris021 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I had no issues getting going with my OPi Zero-512 with the Armbian Jessie. The Armbian install process is really slick I have noticed however both eth0 and wifi have high ping times eth0 is around the 50ms mark and the wifi is all over the place. Is this a known issue or have I got something wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris021 Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Found my issue. I needed to disable the wireless. Once wireless was disabled the LAN worked fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akula Posted January 11, 2017 Author Share Posted January 11, 2017 Thanks for all the responses guys, after playing around with it, i found out my cable was fault, and when i was trying to ssh to it, i was actually getting another ubuntu device. For anybody else, as soon as you plug the power in the ether lights should blink, and a green light should light on the board when it's fully powered.

tkaiser Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 i found out my cable was fault Which cable exactly? The one between an USB PSU and the Micro USB jack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akula Posted January 13, 2017 Author Share Posted January 13, 2017 Which cable exactly? The one between an USB PSU and the Micro USB jack? For me it was the micro usb power cable that was funky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkaiser Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Thank you for confirming the issue. I adopted thread title and start to wonder why we don't get these reports with the various NanoPi (maybe since FriendlyARM ships every board with a Micro USB cable? At the least the cables they sent out with developer samples are of superior quality) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CursedPotato Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 I also recommend connecting to the serial console over UART (http://linux-sunxi.org/File:OPi_Zero_UART.jpg): You can pick up a cable that will work here: http://a.co/78ua1Pa Anyone know why I cant get serial out of those three pins? Is it not enabled by default?

martinayotte Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 It is enabled by default as you can see with "console=ttyS0" If you don't see any output, you should suspect your USB-TTL. Be aware that your USB-TTL dongle should be 3.3V compatible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
