  OMV - transmission watch fix
Posted by: S3phi40T - 02-18-2018, 05:18 PM - Forum: Rock64 Tutorials - No Replies

How to fix "watch" in OMV - transmission plugin:

Watch option checks for *.torrent files in folder and starts downloading them straight away.
OMV by default doesn't let users use Internal memory.
Yes, even home folders (if enabled) are stored on external drive (as a workaround they can be symlinked).



For some reason if "watch" folder is pointed to external drive and file added by SMB share, it checks the "watch" folder only once when daemon start.

Here is quick fix:

In OMV Samba config add to additional options for symbolic links supoprt:

Code:
follow symlinks = yes
unix extensions = no
wide links = yes
allow insecure wide links = yes


create symlink (either manually or via "openmediavault-symlinks" extension) 

make sure appropriate rights are given to linked folder (chmod 777)

Point Watch directory to symlinked folder (as OMV doesn't support internal storage).

Restart Rock64

Now Watch should work properly. It does for me at least Smile

  Unsupported USB Drive NTFS exFAT
Posted by: metallica22 - 02-17-2018, 07:37 PM - Forum: Android on Pine A64(+) - Replies (2)

Hi,
When I plug my 64gb USB stick into Pine 64 android 7.1, it says Unsupported USB Drive. If have tried both NTFS and exFAT. The Pine formats as FAT32, which works, however I can transfer large files, so is usless.
Please help.


  eMMC on clusterboard in node 0
Posted by: aww - 02-17-2018, 05:33 PM - Forum: Clusterboard - Replies (3)

Doesn't seem to work, I haven't exhaustively confirmed on all BSP based kernels but Ayufan's xenial image based of the BSP kernel doesn't seem to detect it. 

Mainline Arch seems to see it, but then hangs at boot. 

The same eMMC card works fine on the baseboard.

Edit: So the hang a boot was a misdirection

This is what I see in the logs about what I think is the eMMC:

[ 4.591099] mmc2: unrecognised CSD structure version 0
[ 4.596307] mmc2: error -22 whilst initialising MMC card

  Shutdown server and corrupt data : how to login ?
Posted by: Florent - 02-17-2018, 01:11 PM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - Replies (2)

Hello !

I have some problems with corrupt data on my Ayufan's Stretch server.
Last night, the external USB 3 HDD suddenly began to vibrate on the desk in the living room. So strongly that it woke us up... I never heard that !

So in the confusion, i just shut down the server holding the power button. And now, impossible to boot the server. 
I have some errors before the prompt login : 

mmcblk1p6 : Volume was not properly unmounted. Some data may be corrupt. Please run fsck.
Give root password for maintenace or press Control D to continue.

I guess there is no password for root login. And Control+D just returns "sulogin cannot read /dev/tty1: Operation not permitted".

And there is no longer ssh connexion.

How can I login as rock64 user and/or run fsck ?


  Wiki version of Android 7.1 not working with touchscreen
Posted by: abba2566 - 02-17-2018, 07:57 AM - Forum: Android on Pine A64(+) - Replies (3)

So after a few attempts, I have managed to get my Pine A64 to boot using the LCD touchscreen, however whilst the touchscreen shows Android fine, it has to be used with a keyboard and mouse as the touch part doesn't seem to be working.

I have everything working with Android 5.1.1 LCD screen version (showing image and touchscreen working) so I think everything hardware wise is working. 

The exact version I am running is
http://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/Pine_A6....10-r66.5D (the none TV version) 

Can anyone offer any suggestions.


  Pinebook as Raspberry Pi
Posted by: milkaca - 02-17-2018, 04:30 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook - Replies (2)

Is it possible to replace pinebook board with Raspberry Pi3 board? I am willing to spend time to deasamble the Pinebook laptop and put RPi3 board inside, but not sure if it will work.


  where is uEnv.txt
Posted by: abba2566 - 02-16-2018, 06:37 PM - Forum: Android on Pine A64(+) - Replies (3)

Hi there, 
I have an original Pine A64 (in fact I'm typing this from it) and I'm running the Android 7.1 community image, but at present I can only get it to work with an external display. (The LCD definately works as a android 5.1.1 (LCD Video Output) works fine.) 

Again according to the wiki, I should be able to use uEnv.txt to enable the LCD, however I cannot figure out where uEnv.txt is. I tried searching the file manager, but I couldn't see it. 
If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great!


  WebGUI for the Rock64
Posted by: evilbunny - 02-16-2018, 04:36 PM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - Replies (5)

For the past few days I've been coding a webgui for the Rock64 based on Ayufan's stretch minimal image. Inspired in part by the rPi hostapd interface

Apart from common administration things, it also sets up wifi devices like the RTL8812AU to become wifi APs using HostAPD.

I've outlined how to do this on my github repository, or for those not able to, I've also put a complete router image on my website.

By default the wifi channel is 40, which is 802.11a/n/ac only and the ssid is Pine64.org and the password is "password", although this can all be changed in the webgui, using rock64/rock64 as the login credentials.

I'd like to get OpenVPN and TOR working and would welcome any help with this, as I'm a bit stumped on making this as easy as possible for people to get up and running without needing to setup key generation on client machines.
