These are kernel errors, at the lowest level - "mmc" -
Most important is this one - error -110 transferring data, sector 97767120, nr 8, cmd response 0x900, card status 0x0
Unfortunately this is a data transfer error to the SD card. The Skiff-related output is systemd attempting to mount the partition before proceeding to /mnt/persist
but this is only hanging because the mmc transfer is failing.
I would bet that this is mostly related to the Odroid kernel being outdated / buggy in some way.
Workaround: use a SD card which is compatible with the Odroid kernel.
Solution: upgrade odroid kernel (test out next
branch it is currently updated to a slightly newer revision, although I don't think it will fix your problem).
It's also possible that the MMC card you were dealing with was broken in some way (they're quite easy to break). Did you try other cards of the same type?

Yes, we had this issue with several cards of the same type, however, since switching to a known compatible one, this issue is not present (yet).
Solution: upgrade odroid kernel (test out
next
branch it is currently updated to a slightly newer revision, although I don't think it will fix your problem).
Will give that a try then, in combination with #110 to see if these issues were related to the older kernel.
@mascheiber It's all on master
now along with 2 other fixes for odroid - for the "Bus speed" message (related to emmc hotplug) and for the s5p firmware missing. make cmd/odroid/common/install
will not overwrite the persist partition so it can be used to update Skiff independently from your core containers.
I do know there is a particular feature missing in some SD cards which makes them incompatible with Linux. However this is more of a Linux kernel issue rather than a Skiff specific one. If you have a particular kind of card that isn't working, but you expect that it should, it might be most useful to post on https://forum.odroid.com/ where the odroid support team replies usually right away.
By the way if you know which cards are definitely not compatible, I'd love to know so I can update the Skiff docs.
Well so far had the issues with the Intenso MicroSDXC Card, UHS-I, 64 GB
, which I have not found on the incompatible list by odroid. Will report it there as well, since all of these issue are mostly related to this card type.
make cmd/odroid/common/install
will not overwrite the persist partition so it can be used to update Skiff independently from your core containers.
Thanks will give this a try now, will let you know if this improves these issues.
@mascheiber Information added to configs/odroid/common/README.md about known cards.
Can not bootup system with persist sector not found.
This issue only concerns the Odroid platform and is related to the fact that SD cards from some manufacturers are not supported by the odroid. I'm not sure if there is something that can be done on the skiff side to solve this issue, mainly because of this line
