Filip Jerhot Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Hello, i have a tv box H96 Pro+ with 3Gb ram and S912 processor. I used instructions from here, used balenaEtcher to copy data to SD card I adjusted the /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf file and copied the 912 uboot to u-boot.ext When i try to boot the SD card, i am getting an error Failed to mount /dev/mmcblk1p1 as root file system. Full error in the attched image. What is confusing me is that it looks like the system is expecting /dev/mmcblk1p1 to be ext4 but when i check it in Gparted, it is FAT32 Would you please push me to the right direction? Thank you 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Filip Jerhot Posted November 5, 2023 Author Share Posted November 5, 2023 Hello i used the image from here https://mirror-eu-de1.armbian.airframes.io/dl/aml-s9xx-box/archive/Armbian_23.8.1_Aml-s9xx-box_bookworm_current_6.1.50_xfce_desktop.img.xz I tied dtd FDT /dtb/amlogic/meson-gxl-s905w-tx3-mini.dtb Then i also tried FDT /dtb/amlogic/meson-gxm-q200.dtb Now my extlinux.conf looks like this LABEL Armbian LINUX /uImage INITRD /uInitrd #FDT /dtb/amlogic/meson-gxbb-p200.dtb #FDT /dtb/amlogic/meson-gxl-s905x-p212.dtb #FDT /dtb/amlogic/meson-gxl-s905w-tx3-mini.dtb FDT /dtb/amlogic/meson-gxm-q200.dtb #FDT /dtb/amlogic/meson-g12a-x96-max.dtb #FDT /dtb/amlogic/meson-g12b-odroid-n2.dtb append root=UUID=59d0e9ab-ff9a-43f7-8841-e8f5956645c0 rootflags=data=writeback console=ttyAML0,115200n8 console=tty0 rw no_console_suspend consoleblank=0 fsck.fix=yes fsck.repair=yes net.ifnames=0 splash plymouth.ignore-serial-consoles The image i pasted here is all i see during the boot. I even made a video but first i see the H96 pro+ logo then it blinks 3 times. Then i release the reset buton and the screen goes black. First thing i see is the full message except the last three lines. The last three lines appear about a second later. There is nothing visible before that.

Filip Jerhot Posted November 5, 2023 Author Share Posted November 5, 2023 I tried jammy image and the result is only slightly different. Using https://mirror.funkfreundelandshut.de/armbian/dl/aml-s9xx-box/archive/Armbian_23.8.1_Aml-s9xx-box_jammy_current_6.1.50.img.xz Testing FDT FDT /dtb/amlogic/meson-gxl-s905w-tx3-mini.dtb or FDT /dtb/amlogic/meson-gxm-q200.dtb Result is a bit longer see attached image 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filip Jerhot Posted November 6, 2023 Author Share Posted November 6, 2023 I found the problem. armbianEnv.txt was missing in both images. I was unable to use UUID or PARTUID but at least this worked echo "rootdev=/dev/mmcblk0p2" > armbianEnv.txt Thanks, now i can continue with my armbian journey 🙂 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteeMan Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 armbianenv.txt is not used in the aml-s9xx-box builds. Have you installed other builds previously? If you started from a clean Android firmware this shouldn't be happening. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
