Hello,

 

I have a cubieboard 2 (the one with only one SD slot) and there is a version of Linaro that is bootable in the NAND memory.

I created a card with Debian Jessie Server (the last one) and boot it successfully, but when I run nand-sata-install I get a "No targets available. Please check your drives" pop up. I tried downloading the Debian Wheezy and creating a card and on that one I can see the nand memory blocks, but don't have the script to install and the one that came by default only installs to SATA (not to NAND).

 

Anything I may be doing wrong here??

NAND is only supported with legacy kernel.

Doing quick search:

(our) Debian Wheezy is long time not supported anymore, but you have plenty other options: https://dl.armbian.com/cubieboard2/  For NAND support look for those with "default" in the name.

... but rather ditch NAND since it's slow an unreliable compared to most SD cards you can find on the market today and use modern (NEXT) kernel.

That's what I was suspecting. I think I'll install any distro that will allow me to boot from it in NAND so I can use an external SSD instead.

 

Thanks for the help.
