Hello there
After a first try to use A5E righ now im stucked into the boot process.
First time, everything was done right. Write a A5E image on SD card, insert it and wait for boot. And the process did run until the end.
Right now, after I changed the SD card, nothing is happened. I tried several images (official and unofficial), but nothing is happening. Only greenlight and that is forever. Nothing on screen.
What should I do?
Tnx a lot.
Somehow, right now im able to boot and to see the lxde/debian.
I just plugin an UART debug usb device. And nothing else.
Strange, isnt did?
After a lot of testing, the only image that work for me is:
a527_cubie_a5e_bullseye_beta_20250303.img
from the official repositories.
Is any way to add the rsetup utility in this distro? Or the equivalent?
Please check the latest test image:
Tnx. I will do some test later on.
My intention is to have a clean/small/etc debian image that can be usefool in development (like debian lite) with no graphic, with ssd enabled, etc.
I did some tasks to previous image and I have some success. Except the video. After I remove the auto-login in xfce, hdmi was turned off.
I will investigate to see what i did wrong, and I will let you know about it.
Hello to all.
After a while, i did some tests and i can confirm than that image is working well. No issues (major) during the boot process and also the processor/board getting warm but not so warm even without cooler.
Here it is:
Some time to time, if you are doing a soft reboot (from cli) the booting process getting stuck and you should remove and put back the power usb-c.
Right now my intention is to find a way to remove completly all the desktop/mouse-related-things from the img/sd to have a little cli based version of debian only for Cubie A5E.
I achieve that partialy - only on tty-usb using the option multi-user.target. But if Im doing this way, i dont have nothing on the main screen.
Someone have an ideea to pass that?
