Hi trying to install Debian on my allwinner a20 board and been running into issues 

 

used this link http://mirror.igorpecovnik.com/Cubieboard2_Debian_3.8_jessie_3.4.107.zip

 

the imagewriter doesnt really work for windows 8 keep on crashing and doesnt find the sd card

 

so i used win32imager to write the raw file to the card checked so wrote the filesystem to the card the popped it into my Cubieboard and it detects that there is a sd card and then it messes up took a pic with my camera seems that it tries to tftp boot

Most important part is missing - try to catch what's before that. If card content cannot be read u-boot seeks for network boot ...

 

There is probably something wrong with the card or the writing process.

 

But since I don't have CB2 I am not 100% sure. Cubietruck images are working and Cubieboard2 is almost the same. But strange errors are always possible 

_Hi,

 

a different SD card did the trick for me.

_{I also had a problem booting your latest images. I tried both the recommended one (}Cubietruck_Debian_3.8_wheezy_3.4.107) as well as the Jessie one (Cubietruck_Debian_3.8_jessie_4.0.4), but there does not seem to be anything happening at all. So I downloaded an older version from the archives (Cubietruck_Debian_3.6_wheezy_3.4.107) and tried with that one - did not work either. Then, with a different SD card, everything was fine.

 

Cherrs,
