Question: bios and boot sequence

Sounds stupid, but i can’t find the entrance to the bios or boot sequence.

What are the correct keys to press?, esc, F7 del or F12 do not work here.

If i read the Dragon Q6A manual, i cannot find the tutorial or info about it.

Let me know.

Thx

Yes, it is F2 to enter Setup and F12 to enter Boot menu.

I am on the latest firmware:

Tthx for the reply, it this firmware update done like written here Flashing SPI Boot Firmware | Radxa Docs or in a different way? My windows11 doesn’t recognize the q6a even with drivers and a a to a.

Yes, I followed the process described on the top of the “Radxa Dragon A6A firmware snapshot” topic: the command edl-ng on Linux (Radxa OS).
I can confirm that with this firmware it is possible to boot Windows 11 & Radxa OS

I have linux Radxa running, from m2.2230. But i want to see bios and boot sequence trough hdmi. And run latest software. But i cannot get the q6a connected in window11 for edl, my pc doesn’t see or like the drivers. Is it possible to flash when Radxa os is booted? So flash from Radxa os ? Or is the only way from a other computer with Linux/Windows ?

Yes, this is the idea. You flash the firmware on a running Radxa OS (linux) with the edl-ng command:

wget https://node0.momosan.cc/mirror/share/dragon-q6a/dragon-q6a_flat_build_wp_260120.zip
unzip dragon-q6a_flat_build_wp_260120.zip
cd flat_build/spinor/dragon-q6a/
sudo edl-ng --hostdev-as-target /dev/mtd0 rawprogram rawprogram0.xml patch0.xml

Thx, can i copy this and run exactly sudo edl-ng --hostdev-as-target /dev/mtd0 rawprogram rawprogram0.xml patch0.xml

Or need is specify something here: hostdev-as-target, don’t wanna brick it, prefer to ask more then less saves troubles :slight_smile:

Yes, it is the correct command :grinning_face:
About the risks, if you are using an older version of Radxa OS, it might not boot anymore (Radxa OS T6 and T7 is recommended)

thx, works, i can enter the bios and select boot menu trough HDMI. Running T6 btw.
