No Boot - mysli - 07-27-2018
Hi Guys,
I just received my ROCKPRO64, but I have severe problems to get it to boot.
I prepared a SD card using the PINE64 Intaller, I have tried various OS offerings, Linux, Android, etc.
But none of them seem to boot the RockPro64.
The power supply is perfectly fine, it is capable if providing 12V@4A.
I even tried another power supply, same effect.
The board seems to be supplied, at the GPIO connector I can measure 5V as well as 3.3V.
The Ethernet LEDs are blinking if I plugin a network cable.
The Power button seems also to shut down the board if I press long enought (Ethernet LEDs turn off),
and by pressing the Power Button the Ethernet LED turn back on.
But under no circumstances I get a video out on HDMI, not can I see that the board has requested
a IP address.
So, it looks like as if the board is not booting from SD card at all.
Unfortunately I forgot to order an eMMC card as well, so I cannot check whether it boots from eMMC.
I placed already an order, but I have to wait a few more days for the eMMC card to arrive.
Is ther a special trick to get the board booted from SD card?
If there any other way I could check whether the board is atcually working, booting from USB maybe?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thx
Daniel

I didn't see the correct OS images under the PINE64 Installer for this. so I flashed with Etcher. I did it to the eMMC. I did order the USB adapter for that. so you might want to try Etcher as well. I haven't tried a SD card yet.

I got it to work. Indeed, PINE64 does not offer ROCKPRO64 compatible images (why not???), obviously.
I was always trying ROCK64 images, which do not work.
Meanwhile I found the right images, and have it up and running.
Many Thx

Because the board was just released to end-users and ayufan 'just' released 0.7.9 the other day. I'll update the WiKi (again) on monday and then the Pine Installer will be updated soon after ...

I know I'm doing something wrong, or forgetting to do something else, but all I can get is the power in LED and the network lights. The Hdd I have plugged in sounds to be spinning, but that is it. No image at the screen whatsoever.
I tryied with a 16gb eMMC drive and with a 32gb memory card, both with linux mint 19 image in them.
If you guys could help me , I would very much appreciate ??

I am no aware of a working Mint image for RockPro64 but could be wrong.
Would recommend you remove everything from your board except keyboard and minimal Ubuntu image on the SDcard to establish some confidence that the board works.
After which you can try add LAN, mouse, HDD, a different image, the eMMC etc.
