First fun issue... I went to boot up the board today, and searched all over the BPI-CM4 pages on the Wiki:

...and there are no links to download any images, anywhere. After asking around on Twitter, @PomstaZLesa found this old Wiki page revision which does have some links (from 2022-06-20...) to downloads in Google Drive or Baidu Cloud.

Not super confidence-inspiring :/

It looks like they have updated your 2nd link 2 days ago.

Default username / login is pi/bananapi for the Debian image. Just posting it here since it took way too much reading through their Wiki to find that.

Default Debian image didn't include sudo, so I had to run su - to switch to root (same pw), and then install it with apt install sudo. apt update required accepting two keys during the run.

My network scanner found the device's networking manufacturer to be Shenzhen 10MOONS Technology Development CO.,Ltd

Tried compiling top500-benchmark and got:

To get WiFi working, I did a sudo modprobe 88x2cs to enable the kernel module (see this doc), then I installed Network Manager:

pi@bananapi:~$ sudo apt install -y network-manager

If I disconnected the Ethernet port entirely and tried connecting through WiFi, I couldn't (it wouldn't respond to pings on the WiFi IP...). So instead I ran sudo ip link set eth0 down to disable eth0, then I ran iperf3 and got 25 Mbps down and 135 Mbps up.

Not sure why the huge discrepancy, but there was also a noticeable amount of coil whine during the --reverse test sending packets to the iperf server.

Nice you also have the BPI-CM4 module. I'm trying to get this module working in the BliKVM PCIe card, instead of the Raspberry Pi variant..

sgofferj commented 1 year ago

I also got one of those together with an MCUZone POE/SSD baseboard. Everything works except the USB ports. There's a forum post reporting the same issue with a Waveshare Mini B baseboard. Not sure if it's an OS thing or they messed up the USB connection. I tried Debian, Ubuntu and Armbian to no avail. @geerlingguy Have you ever gotten the USB working on a non-BPI baseboard?

sgofferj commented 1 year ago

Somebody from the manufacturer provided a solution for the USB port issue: https://forum.banana-pi.org/t/cm4-with-mcuzone-board-no-usb-port-works/15552/7

Quick update: we now support Banana Pi CM4, and we now have OMV and OpenWrt images.

WOW! Nice.. I wish blikvm would create images for the Banana Pi CM4 as well.
