Cannot detect EMMC on latest version of BPI-M64 #19

Hi,

I just bought a new BPI-M64 but the the firmware can no longer detect the EMMC storage. With the prev version of BPI board, listing /dev/mmblock will produce mmblock0 and mmblock1 (SD and EMMC respectively)

With the new board, it only detects mmblock0

There is a new eMMC version. The firmware will be updated to fix this. Can you check if eth0 and wlan0 works?

azrin1972 commented 5 years ago

Ok will check

Sincerely Azrin

I know eth works because I’m able to ssh into it but have not really used the wifi. Will update you tomorrow

I would like to confirm eth and wlan works

@azrin1972 Good to know, thanks. BPI updated the eMMC version on their new HW revision and so i need to update the code for the new version. That can take some time.

Maybe you would be interested in running Kodi with mainline kernel 5.2.0?

It is a CLI and no desktop to run Kodi but with some tweak, a Desktop can be installed. RC candidate was not stable enough but now i think is OK, maybe you would like to test it on your new HW? watch the progress here: https://github.com/avafinger/bananapi-m64-kodi

azrin1972 commented 5 years ago

Definitely interested as i only use cli at this point of time

@azrin1972

Can you please try: https://github.com/avafinger/bananapi-m64-kodi/releases/tag/v1.0

credentials: ubuntu / ubuntu

Flash SD card first, boot and then Flash eMMC You may need to update the boot order of the device in case you get stuck on eMMC boot.

azrin1972 commented 5 years ago

Btw, can this be used with the new BPI? I now only have the new version 😥

avafinger commented 5 years ago

Yes, should work nicely.

avafinger commented 5 years ago

Can you tell me which HW revision is your new board?

azrin1972 commented 5 years ago

It’s v1.2.

Right now I’m using the BPO-m64-firmware V2 and it works

@avafinger do you have any updates on this version for the latest M64 board?

avafinger commented 5 years ago

Can you try this one?: https://github.com/avafinger/bananapi-m64-kodi

I can give instructions to flash to the eMMC. Burn the SD card with 5.2, see if it boots from SD card, then upgrade to 5.3.8.

After you confirm it works we can burn it to eMMC.

@azrin1972

Can you please try with this Image https://github.com/avafinger/bananapi-m64-kodi and right after you burn the SD CARD you write the new u-boot for the HW revision 1.2 and tell me if it boots?

The new u-boot is here: https://github.com/avafinger/bananapi-m64-kodi/releases/tag/v1.3

@azrin1972

Please, don't use a USB hub, only the mouse in one usb slot and a keyboard in the other usb slot.
