Over the weekend I successfully installed the latest build on 4 of my new Pine64+ with 2GB and they were working great. My intent is to run these as headless servers so I restarted them without the HDMI cable. Unfortunately every one of the boards stalled during the reboot and wouldn't come online. When I plugged the cable back in each started up without issue.
I'm a bit of a noob in this are and am still learning the ropes so please bear with me. Do I need to add an entry into the uenv.txt file to allow the board to ignore the missing HDMI cable during the initial boot or is there something else going on?
Thanks,
Harry
My Pines boot with and without HDMI cable.
Awesome, unfortunately all four of mine don't. With that said, I do have a fifth one built with the OpenHab image that boots fine without HDMI. It looks like that is based off this image.

Check your router page and see if the Pines that you have shows up in the list of devices that is connected to the router, if it shows up, your Pines are working perfectly, you just need to set up ssh on your Pines to access them.

They don't. The Ethernet plug never links up with the switch and the activity indicators never begin blinking.

Can you hop onto the IRC chat? Maybe we can figure out your problem there...

(02-28-2016, 03:07 PM)longsleep Wrote: I also built a mimimal Ubuntu image combined with the the BSP Kernel and my image building gear. Similar to the Arch Image **this image is intended for developers. If you are looking for accelerated 2D/3D or video decoding use Android** and do not bother with trying this image.
What you get:
- HDMI at 1080P
- HDMI analog audio (alsa, pulseaudio)
- Ethernet (including 1000M)
- USB
- Wifi
- Ubuntu Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial Xerus) aarch64
- BSP Linux Kernel 3.10.65+ (see http://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=293)
- BSP U-Boot (see http://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=99)
- Support for all Pine64 models (512MB, 1GB, 2GB) with auto detection so Ethernet works with the same image on all models
It works good enough so it can be used as headless server, as compile platform for aarch64 or as virtualization host. You can even install a desktop environment if you wish.
These images require a 4GB medium (3700 MiB rootfs). Extend the partition with `sudo /usr/local/sbin/resize_rootfs`.
Download (for instructions see README.txt)
Starting with Kernel 3.10.101 it is possible to lower HDMI resolution from 1080p to 720p. See http://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=980 for instructions.

Hello. Witch repository use this distro? How can i add new repository? I cant find those package: nginx, mysql...
RE: Ubuntu Xenial Image (BSP Kernel) - xalius - 07-28-2016
It is a normal Ubuntu Xenial release, so you can use any guides for adding repos you find for Ubuntu. As for the availability of packages, not all packages are built or work on the ARM64 architecure (arm64, aarch64). There was not a lot of hardware around yet for distros to test their packages on but that should improve now that the Pine and other arm64 SBCs appear on the market. You can run 32bit (armhf) binaries on your Ubuntu if you install multiarch support, but it is not always easy to do, since you need to install every single dependency of a package in the matching architecture as well, and sometimes things break.

I have successfully installed nginx with regular apt-get... with no extra repositories.
Sorry, but I have to ask, have you tried to run sudo apt-get update ?
