Odroid C2 (no 2nd boot from eMMC)

[4bob]

Hello,

a couple of months ago I reported an issue that my C2 stops installing your “DietPi”-updates.
http://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=579
Now the C2 is completely broken !? No Kernel Heartbeat LED is flashing [red, constant blue] no network or HDMI response. It was just a reboot

Well, I started first to analyse the eMMC, made an Image with dd to my SDcard but it's also not bootable. Boot partition broken ?
I started from scratch with your latest image on a second SDcard, restoring my system data etc. – everything works fine. Reboots and updates are also working as expected
Now I need my fast storage back so I made an image with dd and flashed it back to the eMMC; System is up and running no errors; But only until the first reboot, that stops again the system

Do you know how to fix that ? SDCARD is OK eMMC not.
I tested the Ubuntu Version from Hardkernel, but here are no problems to reboot.

Many thanks for your advice, Bob.

Hi Bob,

We can check the partition table stop and start locations with:

Code: Select all

echo -e "p" | fdisk /dev/mmcblk0

Please run this on the EMMC and SD card, and paste results. If the numbers dont match, will give us something to test with.

For reference, my C2 test system with EMMC:

Code: Select all

Command (m for help): root@DietPi:~# echo -e "p" | fdisk /dev/mmcblk0

Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.25.2).
Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them.
Be careful before using the write command.
