I successfully generated an update.img with some tweaks for my taste but I am not able to install it to the device (Khadas VIM - not pro).
Both my and the image you have uploaded to mediafire are failing to install.
Also, the only way I can boot to upgrade mode is MRegister Mode(Maskrom Mode).
What exactly is failing is that when I press start after like 2 seconds the device boots and starts android (that I have installed)
hi all,
i have created the update.img file. I have created an bootable emmc and flased it in hardware. But i didnt see any gui. I am getting command line interface. Please give me your opinion. i have tried to install gnome .But i couldn’t. Please help me why it is so?
Hi Terry,
I need to create an .img file which has Gui. I believe u have seen the image. Is that the same image file which you have made this guide for.
Here is the feedback, really nothing big… compiled successfully and flashed it…
Trying to get kodi running now:
regarding bootstrap commands:
The website marked marked this parameter as additional comment.
sudo chroot /mnt/kvimrootfs /debootstrap/debootstrap –second-stage
So I tried to left them out…(sure its an website issue)
regarding last step:
Now you can transfer this image over to a Windows PC and flash it using Amlogic’s USB Burning Tool6.
I was little bit irritated of the the other img files…
It would be better to mention the update.img as file to be flashed…
That’s all… having khadas vim with the latest debian version and the 4.9 LTS kernel…
I did the second step…
tried it without --second-stage and got a parameter missing error…
and then I executed the whole line…
I would not proceed with further steps incl. burning to emmc and
trying to get kodi working if I had any issues here…
I meant only that the webpage is greying the --xxx parameter as comments…
Which causes my misunderstanding, that this parameter can be left out…
hi, you did use ubuntu 17.04 or 17.10 ?
and did you manage to open a shell session over an usb serial cable as well ?
the latter i never managed to do…
Hello,
Sorry to polish this post, but I have the problem that Ajithbalakrishnan had, and he managed to solve without giving the solution.
Here is the problem :
"marc @ Khadas: ~ / project / linux $ sudo chroot / mnt / kvimrootfs mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img $ (cat ~ / project / linux / include / config / kernel.release)
open / dev / fb0: No such file or directory
