Is a Tinkerboard "regular" (doesn't have eMMC). The system is installed in a microSD and the rootfs is /dev/mmcblk2p1.

Ok then I would first try with a pristine image on a different sdcard if possible, just to understand if the problem is the sdcard itself or something messed up in the kernel

The upgrade bricked my Tinkerboard S eMMC a few weeks ago.

Due to time constraints, I reloaded the OS on an SD card.

I did an update / upgrade today and I believe my SD card was trashed again. I haven't tried rebooting yet but this is what happened the last time and again this time:

@Ikesankom hello, no I didn't test it yet. Actually, I have been busy with other issues and totally forgot to test for the upgrade path.

If you have a bit of patience I may give it a shot in the next few days, probably tomorrow.

@Ikesankom I did a quick test jiggling with bootloader to try and test multiple cases with both sdcard and emmc.

I found a little "bug": there is no "alias" for the mmc devices in the device tree, so sometimes at boot the emmc is mmcblk0 and sdcard il mmcblk2, sometimes they get swapped.

 

Anyway, despite this bug, the installer never broke the existing bootloader, at most it could miss the right device (I should check the logic behind, as it is not so easy guess what is the booting device) if you have both emmc and sdcard plugged. It's not a big deal though: the bootloader has got no real updates in a while since it works fine and the important thing is that the script does not destroy anymore the existing bootloader 😁

 

Anyway, if the board is remotely installed and controls something important, and you want extra-safety, you can do apt-mark hold linux-u-boot-tinkerboard-current and prevent bootloader upgrades

Hello @jock. I did some last tests and nothing, still the same. I tried deleting the disk entry in /etc/fstab (even physically too) and same error.
I also tried the command you told me about before doing the upgrade.
I can only wait to see if the next stable version comes out and pray that it works.
Or try to do an installation from scratch, although with so many modified system files, which would hurt me a lot to lose.

@Ikesankom sorry, I misunderstood your issue, which is not related to the rest of the thread.

It looks like the kernel does not enumerate the partitions of the USB drive, I just tested the bootloader which is not related at all with your issue.

 

It is weird though, because I have an rk3288 tvbox which boots from an external hard drive with ext4 partitions without issues.

Could you please post the results of the suggested commands cat /proc/modules and ls /dev/sd* ?

Well, sorry, if necessary I will open a new thread.

I send the results of the commands

 

 cat /proc/modules
