Hello,
I am pretty new with Rock 3A and trying to flash it to make it working with nvme boot
I follow the instructions give in https://wiki.radxa.com/Rock3/install/spi
but it fails everytime
Do you have any experience with this?
SPI Nor Flash for booting from NVME
Hi Rasa,
the way it worked for me was by installation of the ARMBIAN system onto a separate µSD card, booting the system from this and using “armbian-install” tool to install the boot-loader to MTD flash (setup point 7).
After that I took a fresh NVMe (in an external case) and installed armbian onto (again) by using “balena etcher”. This ensures that there is a valid boot-partition (FAT16) and an ext4 partition on the NVMe and it should boot then correctly without the µSD card.
If you need more specific information, just give me a call
