  Anyone Selling their Pinebook ??
Posted by: spikerguy - 07-13-2019, 05:07 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook - Replies (9)

I have been waiting for my coupon and it went in junk which I missed and now I think its been a long wait for me.

Is there anyone selling their Pinebook Laptop? The Pine64 Store says the BTO is abolished and when I try to make order it shows you to BTO.

Well I understand that pine64 team is busy with the Pro but I expect someone from the community to sell theirs if not in use.

Just need it for development purpose.

Thanks.

  rockPro64 vs Odroid-N2
Posted by: kardanadm - 07-12-2019, 12:07 PM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCKPRO64 - Replies (4)

Rockpro64 board is broken I expect a new one with RMA. 
I've been using N2 for a month, a very very very bad board for Linux. N2 may be Android box but it cannot be an Rp64. 
I am looking forward to the arrival of the new RP64 board.


  SOPINE Upgrade in the works?
Posted by: jgullickson - 07-12-2019, 05:18 AM - Forum: P64-LTS / SOPINE Hardware, Accessories and POT - Replies (1)

I’m designing a new project around the SOPINE+Clusterboard and I’m wondering if there are any plans to offer an upgraded version of the SOPINE module (more RAM, hexacore CPU, etc.) in the future?


  Supplied Resistors
Posted by: Dreamwalker - 07-12-2019, 04:39 AM - Forum: Clusterboard - Replies (5)

I spotted in the getting started guide that you need to solider the resistor to the board to use ATX power. 

But I want to clarify exactly what to do? as there are 2 resistors and they don't both fit (legs don't reach)


  RK3399 question
Posted by: enip - 07-12-2019, 04:38 AM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCKPRO64 - Replies (6)

RK3399 is 2xA72 + 4xA53. Can I use all six cores simultaneously or is it either 2xA72 or 4xA53 at a time? E.g. can I encode with ffmpeg utilizing all six cores?


  Stock distros and headless installations
Posted by: mjog - 07-11-2019, 07:40 PM - Forum: Linux on RockPro64 - Replies (4)

Hi all, I just ordered a RockPro64 to act as a home NAS and Nextcloud host, and have been looking into installation options.

It seems like most "installation" options are simply writing a pre-installed image of some custom variant (Armbian, etc) of the stock distros (Debian, etc) to storage from a PC and plugging that into the board, rather than a more traditional process where an installer is booted which then actually does an installation to storage.

Since I'm a retrogrouch, I'd much prefer the more traditional installer-based approach and use a stock distro (in particular, either Debian 10 or Ubuntu 19.04), and ideally be able to do the install headless over the serial console. I'm not sure however based on reading the wiki or these forums whether this would even be possible.

So, two questions:

 * Can I install and use a stock distro like Debian 10 or Ubuntu 19.04 with the RockPro64?
 * Can I install by (say) writing the installer to USB flash, booting to that, then installing it via serial?

Thanks!


  Please update PineH64 pages to say Armbian is unsupported
Posted by: JGwinner - 07-11-2019, 03:23 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PINE H64 - Replies (7)

I feel really silly posting this, but the Armbian folks were pretty direct about Armbian support.

The net result is that ANY H64 board is apparently so unsupported, that asking questions about it is wasting their time and abusive (their words, and sorry for being snarky/not sorry). 

The wiki page:

https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/PINE_H64_Main_Page

Does not state any of that.

I would suggest updating it to say "Unsupported" per Igor, below:


Quote:Igor:
I does not matter. There is no support for Pine H6. Not for A and not for B. Support = dealing with users. There are only testing images for whatever is on that name/picture. If you have problems with those images, your messages usually goes to /dev/null It was a miracle that it came this far. Closing again.


Emphasis mine.

Note that the same page on the Armbian site doesn't specify "A" or "B", just shows a picture. Apparently, you're supposed to compare the picture and then realize you have a different board; despite the fact that the H64 page on Pine64 for the "B" board links to the same build. Per Tido/Retro:


Quote:Tido:
As long as you have no problems with your eyes, simply look - does any of these boards look like yours :
https://www.armbian.com/download/?tx_maker=pine64

I answer for you: no. Yours is a totally different form factor with different HW. And with your expericence (as it states on your profile) you should least be able to guess it matters.

Dodgy
If you go to Pine64, the "B" board, then link to Armbian, there are no pictures, and no mention that only "A" works and neither is supported. The file name is missing an "A" but given that the Pine64 "B" page links here ... you would think it works. 

So, maybe not so stupid. 

In any event, the Raspberry Pi 4 is looking better and better ... 

It's a shame, the power connector on the Pi4 is absurd; the H64 had a much better construction IMHO, more suited to a commercial, low quantity operation.
