May 2, 20233 yr I configured Armbian on a mSD card and decided to try and move it to the eMMC. I used the nand-sata-install utility, All files from the mSD card are copied, and the last step fails. I get Error: no u-boot package found, exiting Any pointers? Edited May 3, 20233 yr by ducs4rs
May 3, 20233 yr Author I am using this device for PiKVM. It appears during the PiKVM install it somehow breaks u-boot transfer when you move the image from mSDC to eMMC. I was on one of the PiKVM discord channels, #unofficial_ports and @jacobb suggested I try to dd u-boot from the mSDC to the eMMC. I did that and it worked. FYI the DD command I used: dd if=/dev//mmcblk0 of=/dev/mmcblk2 bs=1024 skip=8 seek=8 count=4087 mmcblk0 is the mSDC and mmcblk2 is the eMMC. Knowing this does work without the PiKVM customizations I am not going to troubleshoot this now. I may work on it in the future. I'll mark this as solved. Thanks for responding. BTW here is the nand-sata-install.log for the last failed attempt. Nothing interesting to me. Tue May 2 04:02:46 PM EDT 2023: Start armbian-install.
