Can't boot Dietpi on Orangepi 3B from SD or eMMC (Armbian works)

raphamotta · 22 June 2024 22:58

I used to boot Dietpi from SD card and MMC fine (copied to eMMC from SD using dd). Worked for a few days, then I messed with the SPI bootloader via dietpi-config → Advanced Options → Update SPI bootloader .

Now I can’t boot Dietpi anymore and it’s only Dietpi.

I cleared the SPI Flash several times using the Orange Pi official method.

Now tried to boot from SD or eMMC:

Armbian works
Orange Pi official linux works
ANdroid works
DietPi ca’t boot!

Any tips? Tried several SD cards, same behaviour.

@MichaIng can you have a look please

I also tried to install dietpi from armbian Linux, using the dietpi script installation. It worked but can’t boot after reboot.

The SPI bootloader should not be used when you boot from SD card or eMMC. Or does it have a switch to enforce SPI bootloader usage?

So it would be the MMC bootloader our image is shipped with. Do you have a UART adapter to check serial console output?

There’s no switch to force SPI boot.

I just got an UART adapter. The boot is on loop when I put a DietPi sdcard. THe funny thing is it was working before I messed with SPI updater

Ok it seems like Dietpi recognizes the mask key is pressed, but it is not, and it happens only with DietPi image

EDIT:

Armbian versions with kernel 6+ also have the same problem, it seems for some reason only versions with older firmware can boot fine… I’m just don’t know why

raphamotta · 29 June 2024 15:12

Well @MichaIng it seems there’s an problem with u-boot from DietPi on Orangepi 3B board. How can I install a specific u-boot into Dietpi, like the one from Orangepi SDK?

raphamotta · 9 July 2024 17:27

Ok, I bought the new Opi 3B version (aka 2.1) and DietPi can boot without problem, and my NVME SSD is working, so the problem is my board. I really don’t know if DietPi is the culprit, I believe it’s not.

Strange enough, I got DietPi working in my defective board doing these steps:

1 - Compile the official Opi 3b uboot following the steps from:

Orange Pi 3B - Wiki-Orange Pi

2 - Save the file somewhere.
3 - Burn the official Opi Linux into eMMC
4 - Burn the DietPi image into sd card
5 - Be prepared to insert the sdcard into Opi 3B, but don’t do it yet
6- Starting boot the Opi 3B from NVME and after 2 seconds or soo, quickly insert the SD Card containing DietPi
7 - That way, DietPi will start with the Opi official linux bootloader.
8 - Now install the uboot file you just compiled into DietPi
9 - using the dietpi menu, burn the uboot into sd card
10 - now you have a bootable dietpi in a defective board

I believe the Opi team knows about this problem, that’s why their uboot works every time, and maybe that’s why they made a new board version.

See reference about the NVME problem:

Orange pi 3b NVME problem - Troubleshooting - DietPi Community Forum

Also, in the new Opi 3B board, ethernet is not working with DietPi (that’s another thing).

raphamotta · 1 September 2024 17:54

@MichaIng @Joulinar I’m using for months now the latest dietpi version, but with the original u-boot from Orangepi package (I believe it is based on kernel 5.x). Any problem with that?

MichaIng · 1 September 2024 20:29

As long as it’s U-Boot only, and it does boot (load the /boot/boot.scr), no problem with that. Sticking with an old OS kernel can become a security issue. But as far as I know, for the bootloader in a home server/device SBC scenario, it is uncritical.

Interesting this “download key pressed, entering download mode…resetting …” might be indeed to issue? It sees all MMC devices/slots at first, but tries only and fails on MMC 2, while the correct one would be MMC 0.

So yeah, reading your next posts, same analysis. The Armbian-based U-Boot is much newer mainline U-Boot. But it should be actually newer v2024.04: orangepi3b: bump u-boot to Kwiboo's `rk3xxx-2024.04` · armbian/build@80262fa · GitHub
Our latest image ships with this version already. However, generally it is not so rare that mainline U-Boot with some patched support for newer SBCs contains certain bugs. They are tested, but not every bug appears with every device/in every situation, as you can see, and the Orange Pi 3B is at community support only.

Mainline U-Boot got Orange Pi 3B support quite recently: board: rockchip: Add Xunlong Orange Pi 3B · u-boot/u-boot@a52099b · GitHub
Will be released October. But if others are facing similar issues, we could just test this release candidate in our Armbian fork, and see whether it works better.

raphamotta · 4 September 2024 23:39

Well, i’m pretty sure that my board has something burned, since the bootloader was working until I put a samsung NVME 2230. After 2 days, the NVME stops working and I got this strange u-boot behavior. I belive it’s some HW problem from initial version of the board, this guy also has a NVME problem:

Funny thing, the NVME is working fine in another boards, and different NVME are working on Opi 3B.

Maybe the problem was related with some voltage difference between the boards on u-boot, idk,

Anyway, I’ll wait to the mainline u-boot and tested it.

MichaIng · 11 October 2024 17:44

Yesterday I pushed a U-Boot package upgrade to our APT server, which is based on mainline U-Boot. A release candidate, while the release is out already, but should not make a big difference. I triggered an image build with this bootloader: DietPi-Build · MichaIng/DietPi@64af7e9 · GitHub
Once done, you can find it here: Index of /downloads/images/testing

Of course you can also flash the bootloader image from the recent linux-u-boot-orangepi3b-edge package manually.

boxer · 12 October 2024 11:03

https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Board-Support-Rules/#criteria-for-supported

I see some work related to this board done by Armbian … so I guess support is still better then Dietpi. This looks more like a business decision?

Building from fork now upgraded Dietpi freeloader status to official.

“A freeloader is a person who takes things from others without paying for them or giving anything in return .” (ChatGpt) .

Joulinar · 12 October 2024 11:24

Yes Igor we need to do this as you personally blocked us from contributing to Armbian on your forum and GitHub. Means we would love to contribute but you simply don’t want. But this you know.

boxer · 12 October 2024 17:04

You have a strange perspective on what love is.

Git has a public history. From 14397 commits to Armbian, Dietpi in 11 years contributed 3 (three) trivial commits:

https://github.com/armbian/build/commits?author=MichaIng

There is one from 2016 from Fourdee:

https://github.com/armbian/build/commits?author=Fourdee

and you

https://github.com/Joulinar

never contributed to (what is publicly visible) any other open source project. If you are blocked or not, that changes nothing.

MichaIng · 12 October 2024 17:58

And now you should be clever enough to imagine why Fourdee was not exactly motivated to contribute, after being personally insulted by you again and again, and why I did not want to warm up this fight and started to contribute very carefully, before you started to heavily and personally insult me as well, and banned me from Armbian GitHub orga to not only demotivate me, but prevent me from contributing to Armbian.

Well, I stopped to reason with you, I tried to ignore you for the best of the two of us, but you keep wasting days of your “valuable” time to crawl around in our forum with a different name and different email, spreading lies and nonsense, making a fool of yourself. I hence silenced you now, for your own good. Go work on Armbian instead of wasting your time here.

I cannot imagine that I am dealing with an adult here …

shiningcacti · 28 October 2024 20:37

Just wanted to chime in that I was having a similar issue. Orange pi 3b that would boot once, and then fail on every reboot. I’m pretty sure its an older model, though I don’t know how I’d tell. Mainly making this comment to confirm using the linux-u-boot-orangepi3b-edge package fixed it for me.
