Krescue not working or booting

VIM3

@mzb69 can you try to take a video of your operation, it might make it easier for us to see if you are doing something wrong…

43

No, can’t do that now … cooking roast lamb for tea, and I’m already late … the missus will go crook any minute!
What would a video show that the terminal screenshots don’t?

44

.Ok, let Hyphop give us a response before we do anything else,

Aye, you better go and cook, or else your missus might get angry and you won’t have a VIM3L to work on later…
:sweat_smile:

Yeah, Irish women can get a bit mean when their roast isn’t done to perfection :wink:
(My extensive survey of 1 is statistically sound, right?)

I’m thinking that what I’ve done is completely screw up the partitions on eMMC … and that all the subsequent tools don’t have enough intelligence to compensate for my stupidity.

[edit] First day, 20 post limit :confused:
I’ve not found any older versions of krescue.

[20200713-17:53GMT+10] Thanks @hyphop. Works as advertised!

@hyphop what was the bug ?

49

today is clearly your day, Hyphop updated the image
:slightly_smiling_face::sheep::+1:

50

Yes, atleast the Image got fixed, let’s hope the roast lamb came out well too…
:laughing:

51

I think this is due to the integration with Rockchip

52

That was in the universal Image I believe…
This is system specific image…

53

no need think to much about this :wink: its was usb-otg driver bug for VIM3/3L - which already fixed all images will be updated today again !

Not working here either. My colleague got it working somehow after fully erasing EMMC from Ubuntu first. Here is my result after following the guidelines booting from SD card:

  1. plz use last images from https://dl.khadas.com/Firmware/Krescue/dump/
  2. be sure if u have VIM3L u must write https://dl.khadas.com/Firmware/Krescue/dump/VIM3L.krescue.sd.img.gz
  3. try another sd card
  4. check onboard led status
  5. check network connection status to you VIM device / is can be USB or Ethernet
  6. if u have UART - its will very be useful to show full boot log

get me more details
and i will try to understand what happens - again
