Pinebook Boot
#12
Thank you for the replies. They were all helpful, especially the suggestion to use "nmtui". With that I could get the network working from the state the machine was in. With that working I tried running a straight update and that didn't help. I used etcher to create a Debian image on an sd card. Inserting that and rebooting worked and the machine runs nicely from that image. However, in trying to get that image burnt on to the storage of the Pinebook Pro it didn't seem to work.

I did a:

$ xzcat imagename.img.xz | sudo dd of=/dev/mmcblk2 bs=1M status=progress conv=fsync

This appeared to run and work but shutting down, removing the sd card and restarting the machine it still launched Manjaro.

What I am doing wrong here, do I need to flash something to /dev/mmcblk1 too?


Code:
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/root        59G  6.0G  50G  11% /
devtmpfs        1.9G  1.9G    0 100% /dev
tmpfs          1.9G  35M  1.9G  2% /dev/shm
tmpfs          1.9G  14M  1.9G  1% /run
tmpfs          5.0M  4.0K  5.0M  1% /run/lock
tmpfs          1.9G    0  1.9G  0% /sys/fs/cgroup
/dev/mmcblk0p1  63M  25M  39M  39% /boot
tmpfs          388M  4.0K  388M  1% /run/user/109
tmpfs          388M  28K  388M  1% /run/user/1000
/dev/mmcblk1p2  58G  6.7G  48G  13% /media/rock/ROOT_MNJRO
/dev/mmcblk1p1  214M  58M  156M  27% /media/rock/BOOT_MNJRO
