hi all,

Use an old version of cubietruck.

I Can use the new script /usr/lib/nand-sata-install  for install my old version?

Kernel 3.4.104-sunxi

regards

You can try ... worst case is you won't be possible to boot from nand. Beware to include all files, otherwise it won't work.

 

https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib/tree/master/scripts/nand-sata-install/usr/lib/nand-sata-install

what do you mean " Beware to include all files"

 

I need also this?

/boot/*
/dev/*
/proc/*
/sys/*
/media/*
/mnt/*
/run/*
/tmp/*

Yes, you need all.

i tried, boot on nand and system on sata not work.

when script ended remove sd card , press poweron but cubietruck does not start. All frontal led are off.

 

can someone help me?

Had the same on a Cubieboard v1. Flash a linux NAND image and do the nand-sata-install again.

i have flash nand with lubuntu.

run nand-sata-install and select boot on nand and system on sata all done, but no boot.

All frontal led are off.

 

exists wiki for manual process?

regards

Did you update the nand-sata-install script, or made sure that nand-part was found on the sdcard installation? Be sure to run:

su -
ln -s /usr/bin/sunxi-nand-part /usr/bin/nand-part

Before you run the script.

 

So now you have to install lubuntu again, start from sdcard, run the command above and run the script... 

nand-part present

ln: failed to create symbolic link `/usr/bin/nand-part': File exists

format nand with linaro, run script install again, all done

 

result:  no boot from nand.

 

I have restart cubietruck with sdcard

mount /dev/nand1 /mnt/nand1
/dev/nand1 on /mnt/nand1 type vfat (rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=cp437,iocharset=ascii,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro)
ls /mnt/nand1/
boot.axf  boot.ini  linux  uEnv.txt  uImage

mount /dev/nand2 /mnt/nand2
/dev/nand2 on /mnt/nand2 type ext4 (rw,relatime)
ls -la /mnt/nand2/

drwxr-xr-x 7 root root  4096 mar 12 12:59 ..
drwx------ 2 root root 16384 mar 11 17:13 lost+found

 

Did you start from clean image? Have you installed anything extraordinary, have you mounted anything to the system, ...? Briefly describe mods to your system.

hi,

thanks for your replay.

If use old script nand-install.sh work fine.

Probably if mount manually sda, copy with rsync file and set fstab sysfs.conf work.

I have a doubt:

there are difference for package old nand1-cubietruck-debian-boot.tgz present in old version and package present in new script?

If you manually combine old scripts and new installs it might not work. Recent installers are organized differently - they don't need this package anymore.

hi ,

use old version of cubietruck

Linux cubie 3.4.104-sunxi #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Oct 17 16:13:30 CEST 2014 armv7l GNU/Linux

Debian GNU/Linux 7 \n \l

 

If use latest script

for me no work, but if follow this step work fine.

Boot cubietruck with sdcard.

Install system in nand with /root/nand-install.sh

 mount /dev/nand1 /mnt/nand1
 mount /dev/nand2 /mnt/nand2
 mount /dev/sda1  /mnt/sda1    ( for new sda fdisk /dev/sda opz n ,1, p,w after mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1)
 rsync -aAXv --exclude={"/dev/*","/proc/*","/sys/*","/tmp/*","/run/*","/mnt/*","/media/*","/lost+found"} / /mnt/sda1

 nano /mnt/sda1/etc/fstab

change

/dev/mmcblk0p1  /           ext4    defaults,noatime,nodiratime,data=writeback,commit=600,errors=remount-ro        0       0

to

/dev/sda1  /           ext4    defaults,noatime,nodiratime,data=writeback,commit=600,errors=remount-ro        0       1

change in /mnt/nand1/uEnv.txt
 

nand_root=/dev/nand2 rootwait
to
nand_root=/dev/sda1 rootwait

reboot , remove sdcard and work fine

 df -h

any suggestion?

the script is more simple

regards

I correct myself.

file system read only

in boot

[FAIL] startpar:service(s) returned failure: checkroot-bootclean.sh .. failed!

[FAIL] Setting sysfs variables..  unknow attribute

find this solution, for those who have problems with the script.

Best way for install cubietruck on hard disk is this script if this

if this does not work this could help.

 

Install system in Nand with script present , in my case ,old version, is in /root/nand-install.sh

remove SD Card and reboot with the hard disk  connected.

# fdisk /dev/sda

Use “p†(print partition of a drive), “d†delete a partition or “n†(create new partition). The partition should be of type “83â€.

Format the partition for rootfs with EXT4 filesystem:

# mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1

sudo su - root 
# rsync -aAXv /dev/nand2 /dev/sda1 

changing boot parameters

# sudo su - root 
# mount /dev/nand1 /mnt 
# nano /mnt/uEnv.txt

Change the contents of uEnv.txt  from â€œnand_root=/dev/nand2†to “nand_root=/dev/sda1

# umount /mnt
# sync
# reboot

uEnv.txt

 

So the problem is that you're still using an outdated u-boot version relying on uEnvt.txt and that's the reason the script doesn't work since it adjusts boot.cmd instead?

yes,

i use old version!!

now I understand why it does not work!

 

I could update only the files in the boot  [/dev/nand1/] , and maintain all file in sda1, It might work?

 

thanks
