just write image to SD card
Linux - default installation method examples
wget http://SERVER/IMAGE.sd.zip
unzip -p IMAGE.sd.zip '*.img' | sudo dd bs=1M of=/dev/YOUR_SD_CARD
wget http://SERVER/IMAGE.sd.img.gz
gzip -dc IMAGE.sd.img.gz | sudo dd bs=1M of=/dev/YOUR_SD_CARD
wget http://dl.khadas.com/Firmware/VIM1/OpenWrt/IMAGE.sd.img.gz -O- | gzip -dc | sudo dd bs=1M of=/dev/YOUR_SD_CARD
NOTE: Remember to replace the words IMAGE and YOUR_SD_CARD, to the correct values in your system.
Another OS (or if previous methods were difficult for you) / Linux - GUI
Use Balena Etcher to burn the OpenWrt image to your SD card or USB f.
sudo ./balenaEtcher-1.5.57-x64.AppImage
Just select the IMAGE.img.gz or IMAGE.img.zip image, and select your SD card as the target. Press burn!
( There is no need to decompress the image )
BOOT from SD card
- Best way is to just boot openwrt from your SD card.
- If your EMMC is empty, openwrt will automatically boot from your SD card.
- Else, Uboot will start from EMMC by default - it can boot from SD card, but only with the proper version and config!
VIM1_v12 (old)
- Power on VIM1.
- Short-circuit the two pads of the M register (back PCB side), and without releasing it… https://docs.khadas.com/images/vim1/MRegister_ShortCircuit.png
- Short press the Reset key, then release it to force boot from SD card
https://docs.khadas.com/vim1/HowtoBootIntoUpgradeMode.html#MRegister-Mode-Maskrom-Mode
VIM1 v14 (current)
Just triple-press KEY_F (middle button) to force SD bootup!
INSTALL to EMMC (internal storage)
- Write image to SD card.
- Open/mount SD card (OW_BOOT partition) on your PC.
- Activate this script
scripts/install2mmc_from_sd.scriptwhich is stored in the first partition. Rename it frominstall2mmc_from_sd.script.disabled->install2mmc_from_sd.script. - Unmount/eject SD card from your PC .
- Insert SD card into VIM1 (TF card slot).
- Power on + force boot from SD card by triple pressing
KEY_F(middle button). - Wait for the “remove SD card” message to appear, before ejecting your SD card.
- OK! Well done! EMMC boot will occur automatically.
NOTE: All previous EMMC data will be lost!!!
