ioncube Posted March 28 Posted March 28 Anyone got a working image? Any review of what is working & what is not 0 Quote
Angel Luis Pérez Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Hi everybody. I have one of these cards (along with many other OPis and RPis) and I was trying to use it for my Home Assistant installation, but OPi's Debian was not correctly complied so it did not work with ZIgbee USB adapters (and with many other things). I tested the Armbian imga someone put here, but I couldn't make it work. I tried to recompile OPis Debian and to my surprise it complied without any glitch and everything is working. As soon as I can (which may take some time) I'll try to build my own Armbian image. If I succeed I'll bring it here. This message was just to say that OPi's Debian is working fine when rebuilt from scratch, in case someone needs a working system right now. Best regards. Angel 0 Quote

BigGratz Posted Tuesday at 06:49 PM Posted Tuesday at 06:49 PM (edited) @Angel Luis Pérez Thank you very much for your valuable contribution and for sharing your experience with the community. I came across your post about successfully rebuilding Debian for the Orange Pi 4A, and it sounds like a great solution for those of us struggling with the official images. If it’s not too much trouble, would you mind sharing the image you built? I’d be incredibly grateful for any help you could provide. Edited Wednesday at 05:47 AM by BigGratz 0 Quote
ioncube Posted Wednesday at 12:56 AM Posted Wednesday at 12:56 AM @Angel Luis Pérez Can you please upload your debian image. Plus kindly explain which hardware part is not working? 0 Quote
Angel Luis Pérez Posted Friday at 06:00 PM Posted Friday at 06:00 PM (edited) Sorry everybody, been really busy these days. Where can I upload the image so that all of you can get it? Regards. Angel Luis Perez Edit: I shared it in GDrive. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VClauaXtNZEkqzH8XBSHnJkweS142Ztv/view?usp=drive_link I didn't change absolutely nothing in the build configuration. I mean, if you want you can just download the source code (it's explained quite clearly in th OPi 4a manual) from OrangePi an just "build". Nothing changed. I hope it works for you. Please take into account I'm not a developerand I didn't change anything in the code. I mean, don't ask me about the build, because I can't help you :(. I just tested to build Debian and it just works... Edited Friday at 06:20 PM by Angel Luis Pérez Link shared 0 Quote
BigGratz Posted Friday at 06:12 PM Posted Friday at 06:12 PM Thank you for your response! If it's convenient for you, could you please upload the image to Mega.nz ? Or any file-sharing service. 0 Quote
Angel Luis Pérez Posted Friday at 06:18 PM Posted Friday at 06:18 PM @ioncube I'm not sure I understand you. With the OPi source rebuild everything seems to work. With the build sharde by OrangePi in their web there were drivers missing. I.E. the USB Zigbee adapter from SonOff was not being recognised, and I'm afraid that any other device which should use /dev/ttyXXX would not work, because the needed drivers were not in the build. Maybe there are some other drivers missing, I don't know, I just tested with the Zigbee adapter, and it didn't work in Debian nor Ubuntu OPi releases. Regards. 0 Quote
Daniel Nuñez Villegas Posted yesterday at 02:39 PM Posted yesterday at 02:39 PM Does anyone have the i2c working in the orange pi 4a? I tried the debian official image and build my image with the orange pi source code but I can't get it to work, everything works including spi gpio, any help will be appreciated, also I want to build Armbian for the orange pi 4a 0 Quote
BigGratz Posted yesterday at 03:31 PM Posted yesterday at 03:31 PM Angel Luis Pérez I don't understand, where is Armbian here? 0 Quote
Angel Luis Pérez Posted yesterday at 06:09 PM Posted yesterday at 06:09 PM (edited) I never said this was Armbian, sorry. What I said was: "This message was just to say that OPi's Debian is working fine when rebuilt from scratch, in case someone needs a working system right now." Sorry if I didn't explain clearly. Regards. Edited yesterday at 06:11 PM by Angel Luis Pérez 0 Quote
JamesCL Posted yesterday at 06:33 PM Author Posted yesterday at 06:33 PM @Ángel Luis Pérez You don't have to apologize because the type of image was very clear in the post where you reported it... it's just a matter of reading 🙂 0 Quote
Angel Luis Pérez Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago (edited) @JamesCL Thanks, English is not my native language, so it's very easy for me to make a mistake. I assume it 🙃 On the other hand, @Daniel Nuñez Villegas, if you tell me how can I test I2C I can check my OPi. But from tomorrow I'll be out for a few days, so it will take some time... Regards.
