I have debian installed on my hummingboard pro.  When I execute nand-sata-install script it looks like it works.  It asks me to reboot but then issuing a df -h or mount does not show that I have a 32gb drive mounted on /.  

 

Is there something else I have to do after I run this script?

 

Thanks!

I figured out what I was doing wrong.  I had a 1gb partition created on the SSD then a 31gb partition.   What the script does is take the first partition and uses that as the  /  I figured I would post this as an answer vs. just deleting it incase someone else stumbles into this.

 

Just make 1 partition and it works just fine.

Hi,

 

I also have problems in booting from SATA with UDOO Quad.

 

I used the "nand-sata-install" script, it completed successfuly, but I still can't boot from SATA.

 

In the past I succeded to boot from SATA with older u-boot (2013 version), as I remember I had to use an uImage.

 

Please help me make an uSD card with the newer u-boot (2015 version) and the uImage for Kernel 3.14.28 (Wheezy) so I can boot from SATA.

 

Thank you.

Can you post more details - which kernel, base system (Wheezy, Jessie, Trusty) and Armbian version are you using. I'll take a look.

 

Install script has been totally reworked in past few months. Now it's possible to boot from any partition.

I use the legacy kernel 3.14.28 (Armbian 4.5) Wheezy, and upgraded to a custom kernel (3.14.58).

 

Sorry, I forgot to mention, the script finishes successfully but when rebooting, the u-boot stucks saying "Loading kernel...", and that's all, it's staying there forever.

 

Thank you.

You are saying you use your own compiled / 3rd party kernel?

Yes, but I also tried with the standard one (and it is the same). I compiled my own kernel using the master branch script, few days ago.

 

I would like to use my own kernel.

 

Thank you.

OK, I'll do few tests to see where it breaks.

The script is O.K. but not the kernel. Several things are missing so it can't work. 

 

Working on it.

OK. I hoped I can use my already (custom) compiled kernel as it is... Waiting for fix.

 

Thanks.

I wasted two hours and fixed only SATA booting. This kernel config now works:

 

https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib/blob/master/config/linux-udoo-default.config

 

USB booting doesn't work and serial console hangs. Have to investigate why. 

Thank you very much. I will test, and come back with feedback.

If you use it as a server, switch to kernel 4.2.8 ... it's in better shape.

Thanks a lot. I confirm that the new config kernel works for Wheezy (3.14.28/58).

 

Yes, I want to use it as a server, but I have a problem with strongswan 5.2.1 or kernel 4.2.8. I succeded to compile a custom kernel, based on 4.2.8, with everything that strongswan (5.2.1) needs to work, but even if I can start and establish the tunnel, I can't access any device at the other end of the tunnel (udoo side). I tried to establish a IPSEC tunnel.

 

That was the reason I returned to the legacy kernel (because with strongswan 5.0.4, I can make the VPN work). Honestly, I would like to use the vanilla kernel with strongswan 5.2.1, but I really need to have ipsec working, and I couldn't make it work.

 

My guess is that strongswan (5.2.1) has a bug, that's why I can't make it work, the way I want. I spent hundreds of hours to make it work, but no success. The bad thing is that I can't debug anything because the daemon tells me that everything is allright, but it still doesn't work (no ping, no nothing).

 

Thanks again for your help.

 

Now, I can start to make us of 'udoo board' the way I wanted.

 

Best regards,

 

Chris
