The latest upgrade push kernel 4.4.126 and crash Rock64 when reboot.

By using serial cable, there is a short moment that user can select to boot from the previous kernel (the lovely stable 4.4.77).  So, be claim, everything is still there, I believe.

Unfortunately, seems that there is no hope for pure ssh remote control boxes.

Anyway, any elite kind enough to post a know-how on how to change the default boot order specifically for Rock64 on this forum.

Thank you


p.s.  if possible, also a know-how to prevent the kernel from being updated automatically.

Here you will find an initial Linux release for the RockPro64 from ayufan.

Same OS Images as on the Rock64 including:

* Minimal
* LXDE Desktop
* OMV (32 and 64bit)
* Contrainers (Kubernates & Docker CE)

Its a first pre-release so expect things not to work or not work as expected. As always, offer feedback here an on ayufan's git.

I have a 2gb pineA64+.  I used this image https://www.armbian.com/pine64/ and got a barebones termina.

Installed xorg and mate-desktop-environment through apt-get.  Now I am having a hardtime getting it to stick at booting.

I did add a line exec startx in ~/.profile. But it boots the pine64 and asks for credentials in terminal and only gets to the gui after credentials are entered.  I also couldnt fine /etc/default/grub toset it up there.

What am I missing here??

Is there any version of linux that has the following modules? 

module       : aesni_intel
module       : aes_x86_64

I am not sure uBoot will support NVMe SSD to boot off from PCIE x4 .

Anyone can test and tell me?

Really appreciated.

Hi

My Rockpro64 is in transit!, will not be long now, unless it languishes in UK customs.

Looking at this forum and the Wiki, I cannot find anything on a Linux system.

As  it is a new system, I suppose that we will have to compile our own kernel.   I have had a look at the Rockchip git pages.  There is a LOT of info there, it will be a severe learning curve to  read, understand and pick out the apposite  parts!

It would be very nice if Pine could add a quick tutorial on what is the best build environment, Rockchip have a good page:-

http://rockchip.wikidot.com/linux-user-guide

Is this the way to go? or is there a better document.

I am extremely rusty on kernel config and compilation, the last time I did it in anger was  years ago on Slack version 0.98  on a dozen 3.5inch floppies !!

as I say, a steep relearning curve.

Hello everyone, I am just relaying that 0.6.37 0.6.40 0.6.41 0.6.44 images from ayufan have been labeled 'release' and are hence the new stable go-to Linux OS image for the Rock64.

Bom Dia. Eu sou novo para isso e gostaria de ajuda, passei Xenial Mate (eMMC) diretamente para o meu Emmc com Etcher e usando o adaptador USB, ele ligou e pediu uma atualização de firmware do MicroSd para Emmc. Isso não terminou há 12 horas, algo está errado?
