Hi,

 

I have flashed Armbian_5.35_Orangepilite_Ubuntu_xenial_default_3.4.113_desktop.img - and it works fine with my Orange Pi Lite v.1.1

But if I flash Armbian_5.38_Orangepilite_Debian_stretch_next_4.14.14.img which is aslo supported, the device does not boot. At least I get no output on HDMI, and no serial console over OTG. So I cannot check if it does not boot at all, or dies somewhere in the middle

 

How can I check why it does not boot?

This console is n/a at boot time. You need to attach a normal serial console to those 3 pins to get u-boot output. 

Oh, I forgot about the TTL onboard... Thanks, the board boots fine, I can log in through the serial connection

Does 4.14 kernel support otg serial? If yes, how do I enable it?

It is mostly enabled by default. If not, check this example: https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/1d18b1ea1b51236acba56b3f234334ed8ef062f4/patch/kernel/sunxi-next/add_otg_neoair.patch

I don't have "sun8i-h3-nanopi-neo-air.dts" file, so I can't evaluate the patch. Same file from linux-sunxi repo looks far too small for the patch: https://github.com/linux-sunxi/linux-sunxi/blob/sunxi-next/arch/arm/boot/dts/sun8i-h3-nanopi-neo-air.dts
Just appending same lines to my dts gives an error during compile:

# dtc -I dts -O dtb test.dts > sun8i-h3-orangepi-lite-pathced.dtb
Error: test.dts:1641.1-7 Label or path ehci0 not found
Error: test.dts:1645.1-7 Label or path ohci0 not found
Error: test.dts:1649.1-9 Label or path usb_otg not found
FATAL ERROR: Syntax error parsing input tree

My original dts "sun8i-h3-orangepi-lite.dts" looks like this: https://pastebin.com/6qUhWuTC

Any ideas where to apply the patch?
