RockPro64 boot questions

[dukla2000]

...

If I remove or bypass the emmc, it complains there is no partition found on MMC 1 (It is looking for MMC1:1)

...

I then tried the XFCE Armbian image and has the exact same issue as the CLI image.

...

Something is not right! I do not use Armbian so have no suggestions but seems to me there is a problem with those images. I sort of remember having a similar problem a year or more back ...

...

Is there another recommended Linux image that supports the Wifi module?

...

I use a PineBook Pro Arch image and just tweak it for the RockPro64 - basically same CPU and just use the RockPro64 devicetree. I would guess that has some wifi support (for the Pinebook - you may need to tweak things?)

My notes to get booted (I start with a Ayufan SDcard but a MrFixit will probably do):

Code:

Boot anything off Sdcard, then build eMMC as follows:

edit /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf and swap dtb for rockpro64-v2.dtb

After first boot

Login as root/root

etc...
