Hi everyone, I've recently gotten a Rock64 with 4gb of ram and an eMMC drive. I've flashed the latest image of Debian Stretch Minimal 0.6.44-239-arm64 straight to the eMMC using Etcher. Everything loads fine, but when I boot the device it gets to the login prompt just fine until I start typing then it goes crazy evey time I press a key (any key) i get an error message. Please i need help with this I have no idea what to do from here.. I'm adding a screen shot of the errors I see.

It's a known bug in that build. You can ignore it as it's a warning or similar, or you can use ssh or you can sudo nano /etc/sysctl.conf uncomment the kernel.printk line and set it to 4 4 1 7 and then reboot.

Edit /etc/sysctl.conf and make the changes listed in my previous post.

I've installed
Code:
bionic-lxde-rock64-0.6.44-239-arm64.img
and it works like a dream, thanks, on my rock64 4gb. I've even had mythtv backend running, which I thought was not possible on an ARM64 CPU. There are a few problems with mythtv but just to get it running is quite an achievement.
Maybe 0.6.46 is not quite ready yet.
