X96 Mini S905W 2G/16G/SV6051P - Failed to mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 as root file system


Recommended Posts

I've been trying to run Armbian using the Armbian_community_24.8.0-trunk.554_Aml-s9xx-box_bookworm_current_6.6.45 image along with a 16GB Sandisk Ultra SD Card (flashed using balenaEtcher), and my main issue is initramfs not being able to mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 as a root file system.
I've tried using the solution listed here, but it didn't work. How can I resolve this?

My recent experience is that current kernels are very picky about the type/quality of the SD card.  So try different SD cards.  That has solved the issue for me when I have run into this issue recently.

That confirms most likely that the problem was more recently introduced.  If you have the time to do some testing to maybe narrow down where it might have stopped working that would be useful information for the community.

So could you rest the current s905x-s912 uboot bin in your working setup to see if it was a uboot change that is the problem?

And then could you install newer kernels through Armbian-config to pinpoint which kernel breaks things?
