like title says, cannot get it to boot armbian whatsoever, i hold reset button and plug in power, but it just boots ATV. tried all dtb files for 905d but no dice device here: https://www.geniatech.com/product/atv598max/ i can hook up UART to read the boot log and control uboot. tried using usbboot but couldnt get it working is there maybe some kind of alternative reset button or whatever? i could provide board pictures too if needed

thanks this helped, but another issue rose: cannot get past this point image is this a dtb issue or something else?

dzastsed commented 1 year ago

ignore that, it was. booted up with meson-gxl-s905d-libretech-pc.dtb

Can the 6.1.y kernel be started? You can copy /boot/u-boot-p201.bin as u-boot.ext and u-boot.emmc test.

Share your welcome screen and configuration information

cat /boot/uEnv.txt
ls -l /boot/u-boot*

yeah, kernel 6.1.32 works, heres the welcome screen image image here is uenv - had to use mecool dtb as internet didnt work with libretech image heres uboot dir image

Are you using a dev series kernel? Please check your configuration file: cat /etc/ophub-release

Are you currently using it in USB mode or has it been written into the eMMC?

Please test on the USB:

cd /boot
cp -f u-boot-p201.bin u-boot.ext
chmod +x u-boot.ext
sync
reboot

If you can successfully boot from USB, then update the kernel as follows: armbian-update -u stable -k 5.10.117

hi, sorry for late reply. yes, it seems that this is dev series kernel: image and yes, using USB mode, eMMC installation is not supported on amlogic devices, right?

anyway, the uboot swap thing bricks the installation. black screen when booting
