Pinebook Pro sometimes Does not boot up correctly - decisivedove - 07-15-2020
Hi,
I recently installed Arch Linux on my Pinebook Pro. /dev/mmcblk2p1 is my boot partition and p2 is my root partition. The problem is that sometimes Linux cannot detect /dev/mmcblk2p2. Sometimes, it works fine. Here is the output:
Quote::: running early hook [udev]
Starting version 245.6-8-arch
:: running hook [udev]
:: Triggering uevents...
Waiting 10 seconds for device /dev/mmcblk2p2 ...
ERROR: device '/dev/mmcblk2p2' not found. Skipping fsck.
:: mounting '/dev/mmcblk2p2' on real root
mount: /new_root: special device /dev/mmcblk2p2 does not exist.
You are now being dropped into an emergency shell.
sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[rootfs ]#
It was working fine a while ago, it only happens sometimes. Using UUID on the extlinux config also results in the same.
I had recently soft bricked my PBP and had to switch off the emmc but it is fixed now, if that is relevant.
Apparently running:
Quote:echo fe330000.sdhci >/sys/bus/platform/drivers/sdhci-arasan/unbind
echo fe330000.sdhci >/sys/bus/platform/drivers/sdhci-arasan/bind
As suggested by randomuser987987 in the thread Pinebook Pro dead after updating u-boot works in getting the partition to show in /dev. The question is will the changes persist forever?

I run arch as you, wich version of upower are you using ?
I ran the one packaged on https://nhp.sh/pinebookpro/ , but if it comes with some benefits (swithing led colors for each boot process, really fast, nearly upstream), it has some high percentage of failure mounting emmc partitions.
I now run the one packaged from manjaro for a week, it is much longer to boot, but it has 100% boot success so far.
git clone https://gitlab.manjaro.org/manjaro-arm/packages/core/uboot-pinebookpro-bsp
cd uboot-pinebook-bsp
sudo dd if=idbloader.img of=/dev/mmcblk2 seek=64 conv=notrunc
sudo dd if=uboot.img of=/dev/mmcblk2 seek=16384 conv=notrunc
sudo dd if=trust.img of=/dev/mmcblk2 seek=24576 conv=notrunc
