Got mine... can't get any IMG to boot
#1
I've flashed and hacked so many roms and images over the years but for the life of me I can't get anything to boot....

I get Allwinner 64 Bit boot screen on one img.  The other img I used that was 7gb just boots to a command prompt. 

alarm:
I type in alarm user and alarm boot and nothing. Used root/root, guest/guess. It just comes back to the next line.

I have yet to see a boot to an OS of any kind.... I really want to use these pine64 for an event coming up in June but it doesnt look good.

Not one of these will boot on my pine64 1GB:

sun50iw1p1_android_db_uart0_1000M_0112
sun50iw1p1_android_db1000_uart0_0216
sun50iw1p1_android_r18_uart0_1210

When you using Phoenixcard burn-in the Android image, please make sure that set the write mode to "startup".

I hope I will be able to help you.

You can get the newest Debian image here

Are you using windows ? if so please use windows32imager. If you are on linux then DD the image or use Disks do restore the image. 

If you use Phoenix card then please make sure you got the right image: this one
Remember to set the 'startup!' mode when burning the disk. 

If yo still experience problems than take a look here; Ghost did a great job putting together a list of useful threads.

Good luck!
You can find me on IRC, Discord and Twitter
