Hello everyone!

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have a Cubietruck Allwiner A20 with 8G sdcard with Armbian 5.04 Debian 8 ( Jessie ) 3.4.110 - sun7i .

 

 

 

When you start Cubietruck with sdcard Connected , I run the script /usr/lib/nand-sata-install/./nand-sata-install.sh to copy the image to sdcard NAND .

 

 

 

The same performs all the procedures without any error until the moment of PowerOff .

 

 

 

When turning off the disconnect sdcard and turn again , though the S.O does not start. It is as if he had not copied anything to NAND , as if empty. Has anyone had this problem ? Grateful for the support of the whole community .

 

I have done a test with another sdcard , and other Cubietruck and the same problem occurs .

It says that 100% copied and asks to turn off and unplug the sdcard .

When performing this procedure and call the cubietruck without sdcard connected , it does not start S.O.

As if there were no S.O in NAND , as if it were empty.

First you need to try this:

 

Bugs or limitation

• NAND install sometime fails. Dirty but working workaround: install Lubuntu to NAND with Phoenix tools and run install again.
  
• Shutdown results into reboot under certain conditions.
  
• Due to bad PCB placement, there is some crosstalk between Wifi and VGA in certain videomodes (Cubietruck)
  

 

If things fail, like in your case, you need to use those proprietary Phoenix tools to fix NAND. When this is done, you can install with our tools. Partition or formatting does not break this. 

 

And if even this fails, your NAND is broken. It happen.
