February 6, 20233 yr I was happy to find the Orange pi 4 armbian; it ignores raspbian an ubuntu images on sd and boots into android from its EMMC instead. The pi is an orange 4 LTS with 3gb RAM and 16gb EMMC. I have a 2tb crucial SSD attached through the usbc port. It is powered by a 4A supply through the DC port. it's purpose is to be a dedicated mythtv back end; it is wired by ethernet but also has wifi active. armbian-hardware-monitor.log is at https://paste.armbian.com/axayequliz it isn't showing up as a disk, as near as I can tell: Quote mythbackend:~:% ls /dev/disk/by-id mmc-AJTD4R_0x81704fbd mmc-SC16G_0x9345afab mmc-SC16G_0x9345afab-part1 the first is the EMMC, I believe, and the second my sandisk card. I haven't used linux since the late 90s when I switched to FreeBSD, and so much has changed . . .
February 11, 20233 yr Author The answer seems to be that the usbc connector either isn't really usbc, or that it won't supply power to a connected device. . I connected it to the type A usbc, and it was instantly found and appeared as /dev/sda Edited February 11, 20233 yr by dochawk
