Hi Robert,
Thank you for your tutorial.
I have some problems when I want to do login (arm login: _ ). I can’t write the user and password.
Has anyone else had this issue?

Regards.

Hi @dcm37 , with your A10-OLinuXino-LIME, how are you seeing the Login prompt? Thru the Serial terminal or HDMI port?

Hi Robert,

HDMI port.

Hi @dcm37 , i’m currently debugging this, for reference, what was the file name of the “Root File System” you wrote to the microSD card…

Edit: Weird… usb is not detecting…

debian@arm:~$ uname -r
4.14.226-armv7-x49
debian@arm:~$ lsusb
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

So in u-boot usb works:

This might be something: EHCI failed to shut down host controller.

Hi Robert,

My device is /dev/sdb, the partition is /dev/sdb1 and the label is rootfs.

I have the same problem ( EHCI failed to shut down host controller.) with other systems and this board but it worked without problems.

After the message “Starting Kernel…”
It show me these messages:
CPU0: Spectre v2: firmware did not set auxiliary control register IBE bit, system vulnerable
sun4i-usb-phy 1c13400.phy: Couldn’t request ID GPIO
