How to get a minimal Debian system started?
#1
Hi guys,

I'm trying to migrate my homemade headless NAS/mediaserver from an old Odroid U2 board to the Rock64. However, I haven't found any micro SD card image that boots into a system that I can reach via the network. The board just doesn't show up in the overview of my router, nor can I find it using nmap from my desktop PC.

I've tried various images from ayufan's site (haven't found any other), but to no avail. I'm well familiar with tools such as xz and dd, and I know that micro SD cards aren't the most reliable of media. But I can mount the partitions of the flashed SD card just fine on my desktop PC, so that is not it.

So, any hints on how to proceed? I haven't tried to connect the board to a HDMI monitor (it's a bit awkward), but I think any system should at least be pingable via the network.

Thanks!
