Booting Issues
#1
I just receved my new PineNote 2 days ago with Debian installed and was working well with it until I woke up yesterday and the device will not boot into anything, The display remains at "Booting..." or "PineNote is Booting" and i am unable to get to Uboot or anything to see what I can do to fix it. Any Suggestions?

Did you get this resolved?
I have not used the debug dongle but if a long power reset does not fix it, then I'd dive into the debug instructions.
I did have some odd reboots after applying the last software update.  They corrected themselves luckily.

Do you get the boot menu where you see the big square buttons and you cycle through them?

ps- I have to figure out the debug dongle to try flashing some other distributions.  I think the debug dongle will help you discover if this is a software issue that a reflash may fix or if it's a hardware issue.

Thank you for your rely. Yes I tried the long power boot and all I get is the big buttons to boot from Debian Boot OS1 or OS2, Boot Menu Entry3, or search for extlinux.config on all partitions as choices. Nothing will boot after choosing one of those options. I also tried the UART dongle , but I don't know if I need to solder the wiring as suggested on the Pine64 website. I'm not even sure that is going to fix this particular issue or not. I am not 100% sure what I am suppose to do with the dongle.
