Thanks for all the feedback,
Re: Bullet64:
I don’t have a serial cable on me at the moment (I know I have one, but it is buried in one of my boxes of parts and I will give it a shot once I find it….)
Re: dukla2000:
I plugged in the LAN (it was not attached originally): first when disconnected both green and red lights are ON solidly. When connected to a router the orange is solid and the green flashes intermittently. When connected directly to my laptop the green light is solid while the orange flashes intermittently.
I attempted to SSH into the device when on the LAN, but the connection timed out. (This was the same response I got when I purposefully tried to SSH onto an IP address that I know was reserved but not in use).
No, I do not have an eMMC plugged in. No there is nothing else plugged in (I unplugged the HDMI because it wasn’t working anyway).
I don’t have a serial cable on me at the moment (I know I have one, but it is buried in one of my boxes of parts and I will give it a shot once I find it….)
The link in the Wiki regarding the recover button led to a great little tutorial on using a serial connection to access the board… which I will try once I find that serial console… Unfortunately, it contained no reference to what the recovery button does or extra steps that you will have to do. I have been curious about what that button will do, but without an official explanation (in a manual or something), I have been hesitant to press it. I hope it just resets the default hardware values (like a factory reset), has anyone used it before to verify this?
Re: dkryder:
I can try that after testing the UART serial connection and possibly the recovery button (if I was correct about what it does). Just to check, does the following link provide the correct image for rockpro64 (it seems to be for the Rock64 – I don’t forsee it causing a problem, but it is useful to check first). Also, if someone else comes across a similar problem (and this helps fix the problem) it may help them out. ( https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-b...ash-spi.md )
Thanks again for all the feedback!
