Orange Pi RV2

[sven-ola]

Hello @Eule - what was you solution? When I had to guess: remove SD card to trigger eMMC boot?

 

@Logan There's a real large bunch of reasons, why you where not able to install. That screen shot probably does not show any hints. Copy and paste your terminal session where you hacked in installation commands to a text file. Then post it here as attachment, then I may be able to help.

Should I try opirv2-* image or Armbian-* one?

[sven-ola]

There is a Readme.txt stating: opirv2.img is for Nextcloud install, while Armbian is none of that. You probably want the latter.

@sven-ola there is no nvme device in the /dev

[sven-ola]

Hi @Logan thats probably the reason why your board does not boot from NVME.

I flashed gnome desktop from your website.
GPU script yields this error:
```

To fix that error I removed `/lib/firmware/qcom/sm8550/ayn/odin2mini` and other 2 symlinks. run `ls -la /lib/firmware/qcom/sm8550/ayn/` to show them.
I ran the script and did a reboot. Now I'm in the uboot command line and I see this error:
```

```
I only have sd card plugged in.

Also this:

I renamed `k1-orangepi-rv2.dtb` to `k1-x-orangepi-rv2.dtb` and it did let me to boot into DE. Kernel has probably updated incorrectly. `uname -r` and boot log shows 6.6.99-current-spacemit. Wifi module doesn't work either.

I was able to update the kernel by installing `linux-kernel-edge-spacemit` and `linux-headers-edge-spacemit`, but wifi module still doesn't work. `bcmdhd-spacemit-sdio-dkms` is intalled though
