andrewufrank Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 are there plans to produce a version of armbian for odroid hardware. the new xu4 seems to be amazingly fast... andrew
Igor Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 First I need to get a board, then spent some time with it and if everything goes well it's added. Odroids are in the plan for some time. Currently C1 is being examining by a community member and will be probably added soon. I planned to get one xu4 but haven't done the order part yet.
wildcat_paris Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 fyi, just ordered xu4 (+ related mini NAS box) for my Xmas joy or Xmas headache read tkaiser about odroid c1+ and found xu4 charming (at least some v4.2 support). => so I would be happy to test when needed. Sounds better to stay safe home in Paris this days so rpi2, labomo-r1 & xu4 are life saving expenses :-)
wildcat_paris Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 I got my USB/UART for odroid XU4 from Hardkernel/South Korea, for testing. 1
tkaiser Posted December 22, 2015 Posted December 22, 2015 I got my USB/UART for odroid XU4 from Hardkernel/South Korea, for testing. It would be great if you could've a look at those 2 threads: http://forum.odroid.com/viewtopic.php?f=97&t=17349 http://forum.odroid.com/viewtopic.php?f=93&t=15727#p113236 I'm especially interested in the GL3321G being UAS capable: dmesg | egrep -i "usb|uas" shortly after connecting a disk. And whether performance further increases or not. Unfortunately the SSD and disk used by the hardkernel folks might already be the bottleneck (SSDs with just 120GB capacity are most of the times performance limited due to lack of parallelism when writing/reading)

Unfortunately the SSD and disk used by the hardkernel folks might already be the bottleneck (SSDs with just 120GB capacity are most of the times performance limited due to lack of parallelism when writing/reading) I will be looking more closely at the links when possible With the ssd I didn't get much better than 160 MB/s (with SanDisk SSD PLUS 120GB SDSSDA-120G-G25 -- 35 Euros!) So I have switched to Seagate Momentus 5400.6 ST9500325AS [500 GB] 5400 rpm as gigabit ethernet max at 100MB/s for a NAS gr@odroid:~$ sudo hdparm -tT /dev/sda /dev/sda /dev/sda /dev/sda: Timing cached reads: 1978 MB in 2.00 seconds = 990.41 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 226 MB in 3.00 seconds = 75.23 MB/sec Timing cached reads: 1974 MB in 2.00 seconds = 988.95 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 226 MB in 3.01 seconds = 75.18 MB/sec Timing cached reads: 1976 MB in 2.00 seconds = 989.91 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 226 MB in 3.01 seconds = 75.20 MB/sec the eMMC 32GB is faster! gr@odroid:~$ sudo hdparm -tT /dev/mmcblk0 /dev/mmcblk0 /dev/mmcblk0: Timing cached reads: 2034 MB in 2.00 seconds = 1019.14 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 308 MB in 3.01 seconds = 102.38 MB/sec /dev/mmcblk0: Timing cached reads: 2042 MB in 2.00 seconds = 1023.01 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 310 MB in 3.01 seconds = 103.12 MB/sec EDIT: I will be testing Armbian for XU4 when possible Edited December 22, 2015 by wildcat_paris
tkaiser Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 Did you plug in an Ethernet dongle or is this the 'onboard' Ethernet: AX88179?
wildcat_paris Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 Moin Tkaiser, the AX88179 is an extra USB3-ethernet dongle (**) the onboard usb3-ethernet is r8152 (**) in case I later replace the lamobo-r1 with XU4 for Internet over fiber.
Guest darkmen Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 3.10.94 debian kernel seems cant work with odroid WiFi adapter #4
darkmen Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 Hi everyone, decided to join your forum Actually, I'd like to thank the guys working on this linux distribution Because its the most stable and fast for XU4 at this time I am sick and tired of all this ubuntu\mate and i'd love to use debian 8 on XU4, but have a problem. The USB WiFi modele (official odroid shop), that works with ubunu, somehow doesnt work on debian (including this armbian distribution) May be someone knows the problem. Reporting that device driver for this h/w is net/wireless/rt2x00/ lsmod shows all modules loaded, so i dont know where to move BR
