Roby86 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Dear all, I have a problem related to my freshly installed Armbian 5.44 on Odroid C2. Everything is working fine except my external HDD is not recognized anymore. On v5.33 all was working fine. Disc is 500 GB, ext4 formatted. I'm using original power supply from Odroid C2 and haven't got power issues so far. Here is output of armbianmonitor -u : http://ix.io/1bZw Thanks in advance! ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roby86 Posted June 1, 2018 Author Share Posted June 1, 2018 Kernel is Mainline 4.14.40. Yes, external HDD is attached all the time, I haven't disconnect it at all. It just doesn't give any signal at bootup (no signs of spinning up) or power LED working on HDD case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The directly connected hard drive doesn't work for me as well, while it works over the self-powered hub: http://ix.io/1c70 This is a possible workaround until this is not resolved.

Ryan Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 This is a bug in upstream right now with the dwc2 driver and the hub on the Odroid C2. The workaround is to plug in two USB devices, doesn't matter what kind, before booting. Your devices will be recognized. This needs to happen every time you reboot. You could use a USB flash drive and your USB HDD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roby86 Posted June 5, 2018 Author Share Posted June 5, 2018 Thank you, I've connected one RAID 0 HDD case that I had before, and one standard HDD, and it worked. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot see it there? My C2 is still on version 3.14 ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After boot the odroid-c2 with no attached devices or with HDD only, thumb drives and HDDs do not work any away. But if an thumb drive is attached before boot, after, removing it or not other thumb drives and HDDs are recognized as expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
citgot Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I have the same problem with my C2 running the latest stable Armbian with Kernel 4.18.8. I also can plug in another USB device and suddenly my HDD comes to life. But is there a permanent fix available for this problem or should I keep on wasting a thumb drive?

Heimdall Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Have same problem still with 4.18.8-odroidc2 aka Armbian 5.70 .. have to run lsusb -v few times to get USB drive up.. :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyMac32 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 @Heimdall is this a new install you're working on? If so I'd recommend going with the newest images, 4.19 LTS kernel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have Stretch mainline.. but its 4.18 kernel So should I switch kernel to linux-image-next-meson64=5.71? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
