Hi,

 

I've tried to finally move on from 5.04, but the new image doesn't boot. At least, HDMI doesn't show anything and my router doesn't see the board when connected via ethernet.

On the first power-on the green led glows a few minutes, then red one blinks a  few times alone, then both leds blink and then only green one glows. On successive boots only green led glows uninterruptedly.

 

Do you need any information to make it work?

 

BTW, legacy kernel worked fine for me, except my HDD connected with hdd-usb adapter (Agestar 3FBCP1) spits errors every few seconds and performance is unbearable.  Connected to my router with TomatoUSB the same hdd works fine. I hoped new kernel would solve the problem. Here's the error:

 usb 1-1: reset high-speed USB device number 2 using sunxi-ehci

Changing /sys/block/sda/device/max_sectors didn't help.

 

Thanks for all the hard work!

Those errors can be related to not sufficient power supply. Do you power your HDD via USB? Than this is normal.

 

I removed Vanilla images since they are not ready for end users. They are for server usage - no HDMI output, serial console only.

What does "lsusb" report for this adapter?

OPI 2 does not boot also with Jessie Server 5.10 Vanilla. My primary usage is headless server, so I'd like to test vanilla builds

Oh, I wasn't aware of it. I've used HDMI on 5.04 Debian server image to set everything up, so I supposed the new images weren't serial-only. Shouldn't DHCP at least work?

 

On the HDD issue: it's externally powered, I've checked it with 2 different power supplies with no change. Here's lsusb, connected to my laptop:
