Many thanks for your request. Please see my response on the last Orange Pi request: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/4227#issuecomment-808722125

mrx23dot commented 3 years ago

Thanks, I will try to convert it. Don't understand why armbian guys don't reduce SD writes.

MichaIng commented 3 years ago

Don't understand why armbian guys don't reduce SD writes.

They also do a few things, e.g. make /var/log a zram device (instead of a tmpfs like us), APT list compression and such. But their priorities/focus is different as they especially do kernel development, i.e. making the mainline kernel work on those SBCs. We do more user space development and software implementations, and only that, including more setup areas, like network and drive mounts, hence can focus more on this.

Trying the script:

Generation complete. [ INFO ] Selected Git branch: MichaIng/master [FAILED] DietPi-PREP | Unknown or unsupported distribution version: "Armbian 21.02.3 Focal". Aborting...

MichaIng commented 3 years ago

You need to use Debian-based Armbian image instead of Ubuntu. Let me see, at it's called "Armbian Buster".

Focal = Ubuntu 20.04 Focal, the current Ubuntu LTS Buster = Debian 10 Buster, the current stable Debian

Would be a reasonable suggestion to have then adding the actual OS/distribution name to their images as well instead of only their release code name 🙂.

mrx23dot commented 3 years ago

Oh, good to know :)

Meanwhile with virgin Buster: [ OK ] DietPi-Set_swapfile | Setting in /boot/dietpi.txt adjusted: AUTO_SETUP_SWAPFILE_SIZE=0 [ OK ] DietPi-Set_swapfile | Desired setting in /boot/dietpi.txt was already set: AUTO_SETUP_SWAPFILE_LOCATION=/var/swap [ INFO ] DietPi-Set_swapfile | Setting /tmp tmpfs size: 237 MiB [FAILED] DietPi-Set_swapfile | mount -o remount /tmp Generic Device (aarch64)

That was within DietPi-PREP or after the conversion?

It worked great on armbian buster. Now imagine someone not having access to onboard serial port.

/dev/zram2 230M 288K 213M 1% /tmp

Ah of course, Armbian by default has a zram drive mounted at /tmp. A remount is only possible when the mount type did not change, AFAIK. I wonder why I didn't face this issue, probably the dev branch version of DietPi-PREP has it solved. However, skipping it via dummy command should be fine, zram is a volatile mount as well, only compressed. After reboot the tmpfs defined in /etc/fstab will be mounted, so all good.

"reboot" is not turning on the board, just off, needs power cycling, problematic for remote board.

Well known issue with Armbian kernel on several SBCs. Now I see a quite important note on the Armbian download page about this image: https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-zero-2/

Experimental support, serial console only

Setup continues, complains that it cannot get online. (typical problem with dietpi)

With Ethernet, it should not be. Please check the following:

cat /etc/network/interfaces

should contain (among others) uncommented:

allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

Then:

journalctl -u ifup@eth0

should be the resulting service that configures the Ethernet interface, including startup of the DHCP client to assign an IP address. Obviously something until here did not work as expected. But all tools that are involved are plain Debian = DietPi network stack.

Why is the address ipv6 by default, even when ipv4 is preferred?

What you see is the IPv6 stateless address auto-configuration (SLAAC) that every network device is given (based on the MAC address). It does not indicate any connection state. Preferred IPv4 will make APT and wget use IPv4 connections, when possible, but as IPv6 is still enabled, you'll see a SLAAC address for every network adapter, which is perfectly fine.

Even after disabling ipv6 and restarting 'networking' I still get ipv6 and no DHCP response:

The networking.service is not responsible here, as it's an allow-hotplug interface, so that ifup@eth0.service does the device configuration. However, to skip the systemd overhead, do the following:

ifdown --force eth0
ifup eth0
ip a s eth0

Now the IPv6 address should be gone. Let's see if ifup also succeeds to get a DHCP lease. As you say it worked on Armbian, I think they use NetworkManager by default, but I cannot imagine a circumstance where it would get a DHCP lease while the native isc-dhcp-client would not... As of the "experimental support" note I currently guess it's an instability with the network adapter which breaks ifup@eth0.service at boot, but let's see what the above shows us.

mrx23dot commented 3 years ago

Thanks for the feedback, I knew that it's working progress, but seemed fine with armbian, also someone has to test it to be stable :)

cat /etc/network/interfaces seems okay:

Looks like dietpi doesn't get a DHCP reponse, but armbian does. I had a very similar network issue with dietpi running on RPi1, switching back to raspbian solved it there.

Joulinar commented 3 years ago

Maybe you are able to trace on the DHCP server if a request is received

Btw: my RPI1 is running fine using DietPi and DHCP 😉

They use Network manager and DietPi not 😉

no DHCP problem here.

Joulinar commented 3 years ago

Basically Network Manager is a complete different tool. But @MichaIng could explain it better than I.

Best place to fetch DHCP request would be the DHCP server to see if something is received at all

MichaIng commented 3 years ago

It is a large high level network application, much more complex, much more automated. In some cases this causes issues, in some cases it solves issues. It is however the first time I see ifup failing to get a DHCP lease, while NetworkManager does, especially since it invokes exactly the same DHCP client.

It uses a custom post-lease script: /usr/lib/NetworkManager/nm-dhcp-helper But that is invoked after the lease has been received, so cannot be the effective difference here.

Unique case so far, but if you want to debug it, indeed tcpdump + checking router logs or so would be an idea to check whether DHCP requests are sent, whether they arrive at the router, and whether answers are received.

Btw, you have an IPv6 address as well on Armbian, right?

Another thing, did you do a full package upgrade on Armbian apt update; apt full-upgrade so that the kernel versions are the same?

mrx23dot commented 3 years ago

Unfortunately it's a dumb cable modem+router combo on the network. There wasn't any DHCP entries in the log for today. The lowest level of 'notice' entries are 'DHCP Renew' ones from days ago.

I can't remember whether I did apt update+upgrade, I'm sure I didn't do full-upgrade. But I saw a lot of apt-update activities in the script. full-upgrade wasn't part of the tutorial. After rechecking it: full-upgrade on original armbian doesn't add anything to upgrade: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

I will run with armbian for a while, and maybe come back later for dietpi. Thanks for the support!

I'm gonna mark Orange Pi related image requests as closed for now. Referring to our preparation script guide: https://dietpi.com/docs/hardware/#make-your-own-distribution

Orange Pi is on my first priority list when image creation has been automated enough, for for now I personally cannot effort adding a new manufacturer to my creation schedule.
